Job description

Logistics Operations Support Administrator

Seeking a reliable and proactive Logistics Operations Support resource (2 to 3 hours per day) to provide remote, operational administrative support for a courier/logistics contract. This role is hands‑on and coordination‑focused, supporting daily driver readiness, dispatch compliance, and delivery tracking. It is operational rather than clerical in nature and plays a key role in ensuring smooth daily courier execution.

Key Responsibilities

• Conduct daily morning check‑ins with drivers to confirm readiness for dispatch, including vehicle availability, documentation, routes, delivery schedules, and any exceptions.
• Verify that all pre‑dispatch administrative requirements are in place (delivery notes, manifests, client instructions, POD requirements).
• Perform midday and/or end‑of‑day check‑ins with drivers to track delivery progress and confirm job completion.
• Capture, log, and escalate operational or administrative issues promptly.
• Maintain daily operational logs and basic reports to provide management with visibility on performance, issues, and compliance.
• Support consistent adherence to client and contract requirements.

This role suits someone who enjoys operational coordination, accountability, and keeping things moving rather than general office administration. You are proactive, structured, and comfortable managing real‑time logistics interactions.

Requirements

• Previous experience in logistics, courier, transport, or fleet operations (highly advantageous).
• Strong coordination, follow‑up, and problem‑solving skills.
• Confident and assertive communicator, comfortable engaging with drivers and operations teams.
• Highly organised and detail‑oriented, with the ability to manage daily checklists and deadlines.
• Able to work independently in a remote environment.
• Basic computer literacy (email, spreadsheets, reporting tools).
• Fully remote position.
• Hourly rate with flexible working structure aligned to operational needs, 2 to 3 hours per day.
• Opportunity to work within a fast‑paced logistics environment.
• Clear, defined responsibilities with direct operational impact.
• Ideal for candidates seeking contract or part‑time operational support work.
