- Attention to Detail: You’ll be someone who doesn’t miss a thing, ensuring that every aspect of the transport process is carefully managed.
- Tech-Savvy: Experience using transport planning software and systems will be highly advantageous.
Why Apply?
- Competitive Salary: Earn £35k - £40k per annum depending on experience.
- Career Progression: You’ll be joining a growing company with opportunities to advance as we expand.
