**Job Description**:
**Salary of 34,944**
**Sunday - Thursday 09:00 - 18:30**
***A great opportunity for an experienced Planner to join our distribution and logistics team at our Durham Park Depot. You will be joining a small team that keep our network running, ensuring we deliver an exceptional level of service to our customers.
You’ll be responsible for making sure all routes are optimised so that operational targets are achieved - your amazing planning and organisational skills will be critical to your success. With no two days the same, you will need to be able to adapt accordingly and deal with unexpected issues as they arise, ensuring that all stakeholders are communicated with in an effective and timely manner. As you would expect within logistics, this is a deadline driven role where you will need to balance the needs of drivers, customers, and account managers - staying calm and focused to get the job done. Working closely with depot operational colleagues, you will also review and refine delivery schedules to ensure maximum efficiency and analyse data from a variety of systems and sources to identify areas for future improvements.
To join us in this role you will be an experienced planner with a good knowledge of the area. You will have a good understanding of driver working time, have used transport planning software (Roadnet or Paragon), have experience of handling data and be confident using Microsoft Excel. Experience of SAP would be an advantage but is not essential. You’ll have an enthusiastic, can-do attitude, using your experience and logical thinking to overcome challenges as they arise to ensure a positive outcome. This is a great role that offers the opportunity for progression within a large organisation.
In return we offer a great package including salary, generous holiday allowance plus the option to purchase more, pension plus huge discounts on award
