Job description

If you're someone who enjoys keeping supply chains on track, working with different transport partners and seeing shipments move smoothly from origin to destination, this could be a great opportunity for you.

You'll work across different warehouse teams and carrier networks, helping coordinate freight movements, improve delivery processes and make sure orders get delivered on time.

This is a hands-on role with plenty of variety, where you'll have the opportunity to learn, take ownership of your work and build your logistics management experience.

What You'll Be Doing
  • Assist with planning, coordinating and routing freight shipments across different distribution channels.
  • Develop and maintain dispatch schedules, shipping timelines, cargo logs and delivery trackers.
  • Work closely with internal warehouse teams and logistics leads to ensure shipments stay on schedule.
  • Coordinate logistics briefings, prepare shipping manifests, log order details and follow up on pending dispatches.
  • Monitor transit milestones, delivery deadlines and freight loads, keeping stakeholders informed of order status.
  • Identify potential shipping delays, customs bottlenecks and inventory risks, helping develop practical solutions.
  • Liaise with external carriers, transport providers and freight partners as required.
  • Support the implementation of new inventory platforms, dispatch software and logistics initiatives.
  • Assist with reviewing and improving existing warehouse workflows to increase operational efficiency.
  • Prepare logistics updates, freight reports, vendor summaries and shipping documentation.
  • Track warehouse supplies, carrier quotes and shipping budgets where required.
  • Maintain accurate inventory records and ensure all delivery tasks are completed and followed through.
  • Support different operational units with their freight coordination and logistics requirements.
  • Assist with general supply chain improvement initiatives and special projects as they arise.
Ideally, you'll have:
  • Previous experience in logistics coordination, shipping support, warehouse administration or a similar role, although motivated entry-level candidates are encouraged to apply.
  • Strong organisational, route-planning and time management skills.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Confidence working with different transport vendors and internal warehouse leads.
  • The ability to juggle multiple freight assignments, manage competing transport priorities and meet tight deadlines.
  • Great attention to detail and a practical approach to supply chain 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 databases and logistics tracking tools.
  • A positive, adaptable attitude and willingness to get involved wherever needed in the distribution center.
  • 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 distribution tasks across different shipping modes, departments and warehouse facilities.
  • Hands-on experience: Build practical supply chain and freight management skills while working on active logistics operations.
  • Career development: Learn from experienced logistics professionals and develop your confidence in managing complex distribution networks.
  • Supportive team: Work with people who value collaboration, clear communication and getting cargo delivered efficiently.
  • Opportunity to contribute: Bring your ideas, identify logistics improvements and help shape better ways of working.
  • Room to grow: Develop your skills and take on more distribution responsibility as your experience grows.

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