ABOUT THE ROLE
Operating at the highest levels of international motorsport, M‑Sport UK delivers programmes across the FIA World Rally Championship, Rally Raid and a variety of global customer racing activities. We’re looking to recruit a highly organised and proactive Transport Coordinator to join our growing transport team at our Dovenby Hall headquarters.
This role plays a key part in ensuring the efficient planning and coordination of transport operations across the UK, Europe and worldwide events. This is an exciting opportunity for someone with strong logistical, administrative and communication skills to become part of a fast‑paced motorsport environment.

* Driver & Fleet Administration: Help source onboard, and manage contract drivers, ensuring all necessary compliance and paperwork are complete.
* Invoice & Financial Tracking: Monitor, verify, and approve driver invoices, keeping tight control of transport costs and supporting budget tracking.
* Compliance & Regulations: Maintain a solid working understanding of driver hours, tachograph regulations, and basic Operator’s Licence (O‑Licence) laws to support our Transport Manager.
* European Route Planning: Plan complex, multi‑stop routes across Europe, including the direct booking and coordination of ferry crossings and transit schedules.

* Communication & Organisation: Highly organised with excellent attention to detail and superb written/verbal communication when dealing with drivers, suppliers, and internal teams.
