• Produce operational reports to support KPI tracking and investigations
• Respond to driver and customer queries and work collaboratively with internal teams and external partners
  

What we are looking for:

Essential

• Strong communication skills and the ability to remain calm under pressure
• Proven problem-solving and decision-making capability
• High attention to detail with excellent organisational skills
• Confidence using technology and operational systems
• Ability to prioritise tasks in a fast-paced, live environment
• Team-focused mindset with a collaborative approach

Desirable

• Experience in public transport, logistics, or a large operational environment
• Exposure to real-time operations, control rooms, or dispatch environments
• Experience working with telematics, scheduling, or live monitoring tools

If you thrive in a fast-paced operational environment, enjoy making real-time decisions, and take pride in keeping services running safely and smoothly, we’d love to hear from you.
