Important Considerations
  • Busy logistics environment with a high volume of vehicles coming through the site.
  • Some existing working practices may need improvement.
  • Procedures are already in place, but the individual will need to learn the operation as they go.
  • This is not a role for someone who needs constant direction or simply polices the workforce.

The ideal candidate: Someone with a strong operational HSE background in logistics, distribution or food/FMCG who enjoys being out on site, engaging with people and influencing safe behaviours. They should be comfortable working independently and supporting managers through practical advice and coaching.
