It is essential that you are a proactive, customer-focused individual as you will be in constant contact with Drivers and the wider warehouse team of staff. You will be actively co-ordinating Drivers, ensuring everyone is allocated the correct route and vehicle, taking into consideration Drivers’ hours and the vehicle mileage and maintenance schedule. You will be despatching Drivers with run sheets, manifests and vehicle check sheets and debriefing Drivers in accordance with Company requirements.
