Lead a High-Performing Team at the Heart of Our Logistics Operation

Are you ready to lead a high-impact team at the core of our logistics operations? While your focus will be on specific product lines, you'll be working within a wider business that delivers aggregates, asphalt, cement, and readymix across the region.

• Handling customer escalations and working closely with transport, commercial, and plant teams to resolve issues quickly

• Tracking team performance against logistics KPIs such as delivery time compliance, loads per day, and cost per tonne

• Encouraging continuous improvement, promoting digital tools, and streamlining processes to enhance service and efficiency

• Supporting recruitment, onboarding, and training for new team members

• Embedding a customer-first culture with a focus on proactive communication and issue resolution
