This role is based on-site at Kings Park.
About You:
- You’ll come from a logistics, transport or warehouse background where you’ve planned deliveries, managed drivers and kept stock moving.
- You’re just as comfortable on the phone with clients, keeping them updated and managing expectations when plans change.
- You will have:
- Experience scheduling deliveries, planning routes and coordinating drivers.
- Warehouse experience, including stock control, picking and returns.
- Strong client communication, including delivering bad news early and clearly.
- The ability to re-plan quickly when schedules change.
