If you're someone who enjoys keeping supply chains on track, working with different teams and seeing distribution operations come together from start to finish, this could be a great opportunity for you.

As our Junior Logistics Manager, you'll play an important role in supporting the planning, coordination and delivery of freight operations across the business.

We're looking for someone who can see the bigger picture while keeping an eye on the small logistical details.

What You'll Be Doing

• Assist with planning, coordinating and delivering freight projects across different distribution divisions.
• Develop and maintain shipping schedules, dock timelines, cargo manifests and inventory progress trackers.
• Work closely with warehouse teams and logistics leads to ensure deliveries stay on schedule.
• Coordinate operational meetings, prepare dock agendas, log dispatch updates and follow up on pending transit items.
• Monitor delivery milestones, load-in deadlines and vendor manifests, keeping stakeholders informed of progress.
• Identify potential shipping delays, dock bottlenecks and inventory risks, and help develop practical solutions.
• Liaise with external freight carriers, transport vendors and logistics partners as required.
• Support the implementation of new inventory systems, warehouse management software and logistics initiatives.
• Assist with reviewing and improving existing dispatch workflows to increase efficiency.
• Prepare freight updates, inventory recaps, shipping reports and operational documentation.
• Track logistics resources, fleet assets and transport budgets where required.
• Maintain accurate inventory records and ensure load-out tasks are completed and followed through.
• Support different departments with their freight coordination and operational requirements.
• Assist with general supply chain improvement initiatives and special projects as they arise.

Ideally, you'll have:

• Previous experience in logistics coordination, warehouse administration, inventory management or supply chain support, although motivated entry-level candidates are encouraged to apply.
• Strong organisational and time management skills.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• Confidence working with different teams, warehouse leads and transport partners.
• The ability to juggle multiple tasks, manage competing freight priorities and meet tight deadlines.
• Great attention to detail and a practical approach to problem-solving.
• A proactive attitude and willingness to take initiative.
• Confidence using Microsoft Office, particularly Excel, Word and PowerPoint.
• The ability to learn new inventory software and logistics tools.
• A positive, adaptable attitude and willingness to get involved wherever needed.
• Qualifications in logistics, supply chain management, business or a related field would be an advantage but are not essential.

Here’s what you can look forward to:

• Variety in your work: Get involved in freight management across different teams, warehouses and operational areas.
• Hands‑On experience: Build practical supply chain management skills while working on live distribution initiatives.
• Career development: Learn from experienced logistics directors and develop your confidence in managing dispatch operations.
• Supportive team:' Work with people who value collaboration, clear communication and executing efficient deliveries.
• Opportunity to contribute: Bring your ideas, identify workflow improvements and help shape better ways of handling freight.
• Room to grow: Develop your skills and take on more logistics management responsibility as your experience grows.

If you're looking to build your career in logistics management and enjoy a role where you can learn, contribute and make a real impact, we'd love to hear from you.
