At Biocair our Drivers, or Life Science Logistics Technician's as we prefer them to be known, are a truly vital part of our organisation.

It is something you can be proud to be associated with. It is not about dropping 200 parcels in one day, it's about ensuring you transport a select number of time critical and temperature sensitive consignments (whether medicines or a sample from a cancer patient) in a safe, careful, and timely manner whilst maintaining the highest levels of customer care. This is a busy and fast paced role with customer care being at the centre of all you do.

**So if you have some spare time and would like to earn some extra money or if you are only looking to do a couple of shifts a week then this might be the role for you.**

- The preparation and packaging of all specialist packaging and temperature-controlled consignments including Ambient Packing”; “Refrigerated Packing”; Frozen Packing; “Dry Ice Packing”; “Infectious Substances Packing”; “Dangerous Goods Packing” and Liquid Nitrogen ensuring all mandatory procedures are adhered to.
- Ensuring all the correct documentation is accurately completed and processed with the shipment.
- Performing duties to maintain a clean, tidy, and safe warehouse, ensuring all materials are stored in the designated areas as well as ensuring fridges, freezers and warm room temperatures are checked and remain within prescribed parameters and maintain accurate records thereof.
- Report any shortfalls of packaging stock, to the appropriate person, to ensure mínimal stock levels are always maintained along with the maintenance of all relevant storage logs to 100% accuracy.
- Responsible for the cleanliness of the vehicles as well as carry out daily and weekly vehicle maintenance checks and perform simple maintenance tasks as required.
- Responsible for building positive working relationships with other drivers, departments, and management to deliver excellent communication and customer service and working proactively to overcome problems and implement process improvements.

**In addition, you will demonstrate these key competencies**:

- Excellent customer service skills.
- A full, clean driving license.
- Previous commercial van driving experience. (Mercedes Sprinter MWB/LWB, Mercedes Vito, Maxus eDeliver9 or similar < 3.5T).
- Confident driving a manual transmission.
- Demonstrable experience of working well under time pressure as well as the ability to check and maintain accurate documentation.
- Experience of working within a cold chain or time sensitive multimodal freight forwarding or pharmaceutical industry (ideally in a logistics setting) is highly desirable.
- Resilience, the ability to build strong working relationships and be a true team player.
