At Lineage, helping to feed the world is more than a job – it's a purpose we live every day.
Lineage is the world's largest and most innovative provider of temperature-controlled logistics solutions with +20,000 colleagues globally.

If you open your fridge freezer, up to 20% of the products you'll see have passed through a Lineage facility. We support customers who keep our schools and restaurants stocked and supplied as well as working with many of the UK's leading retailers.

We are currently recruiting for Transport Operators to join our Transport team at Heywood.

Shift Pattern:

4 on 4 off Days working 07:00-19:00.

Rate of Pay:

Competitive starting salary paid monthly.

The role
In this role you will:

  • Monitor the day-to-day transport operations for the site.

  • Help keep our fleet safe and legal by managing all aspects of vehicle and driver compliance.

  • Driver performance management.

  • Liaise with Lineage depots and delivery points.

  • Driver and fleet assigning using the transport planning system.

  • De-briefing drivers.

  • Delivery rejections - temperature, damages, wrong product.

  • Create goods return notification (GRRS) for all delivery issues.

  • Dealing with vehicle and trailer breakdowns.

  • Stock allocation.

  • Uninvoice job report.

  • Diary departure management.

  • Scanning, indexing, and filing.

  • Invoicing and status reports.

  • Day to day activity management.

What we are looking for:

  • Previous Transport experience.

  • Experience in managing drivers hours/legislation.

  • If you understand Transport Management systems, that would be helpful – though a willingness to learn and plenty of initiative will take you far in our ambitious team.

  • As a target-focused individual, you'll be comfortable meeting tight deadlines. This also means that you'll be a team-player who is keen to get things done.

  • Good IT skills are essential. Excel, Word, and Outlook are particularly important.

  • Above all else, you'll share our determination to keep our customers and colleagues happy, so a can-do attitude with brilliant communication and organisation skills is essential.

What's in it for me?

  • A permanent opportunity with a direct employer; we will not employ you through an agency.

  • Opportunity to develop a career within an industry leading global company.

  • Opportunity to earn an additional day of annual leave each year, up to the maximum of one extra week for length of service.

  • Free onsite car park

  • Support your emotional well-being with access to a 24/7 employee assistance phone line offering confidential free counselling and advice.

  • Preferential rates for loans and savings offered through exclusive access to a credit union.
