Logistics done differently
We are thrilled to announce an opening for a Team Leader position! This role has become available as our current Team Leader is on a 3-month secondment to a Shift Management role.
While this is a fixed-term contract, there is potential for extension or even a permanent position, depending on the outcome of the secondment. This is a fantastic chance to showcase your skills and possibly secure a long-term role within our dynamic team. The role is to be based at our site in Aylesbury on our contract with Arla (Dairy). We run a large fleet with 100 vehicles, and 200 drivers. This is working on a 4 on 4 off shift pattern working 6pm to 6am.
Pay, benefits and more:
We’re looking to offer a salary of up to £31,275 per annum. In addition, we offer 20 days holiday, as well as the option to buy additional days. You’ll have access to a variety of high street discounts as well as a cycle to work scheme, a workplace pension and many other perks.
What you’ll do on a typical day:
1. Support the Shift Manager with adherence to all compliance and legal obligations during your shift with a huge emphasis on safety, deputising in their absence
2. Assist with executing the daily plan for all deliveries and collections, with a keen eye on resource available at site and keep the customer updated
3. Ensure all process and procedures are followed and that we operate a safe and efficient environment
What you need to succeed at XPO:
4. It’s important you have exposure of working in a fast-paced environment – no two days will be the same and we need you to think on your feet
5. Previous experience supervising and developing a team within a complex transport environment
6. Proven experience within transport and a good understanding of compliance and driver hours
