About the Role

My client is seeking an experienced and proactive Site Transport Manager to take responsibility for the day-to-day running of their refrigerated and UK/European haulage operations. This is a senior, hands-on position where you’ll ensure the transport function operates safely, efficiently, and in full compliance with regulations.

The ideal candidate will be confident stepping into a role where no two days are the same, and where continuous improvement is a core expectation. You will work closely with the team to review, refine, and enhance operational processes across the site.

  * Ensure full compliance with transport legislation, including WTD, tachograph rules, and cross-border regulations.

  * Act as a key point of contact for operational issues, offering prompt, effective solutions.

  * Collaborate with the site team to review current processes and introduce improvements.

  * Ensure vehicles and equipment meet all safety and maintenance requirements.

  * Produce detailed operational reports and performance updates for senior leadership.

  * Provide occasional on-call support via phone as needed.

Candidate Requirements

  * CPC in Transport Management (essential).

  * Strong background in transport operations, ideally within refrigerated or temperature-controlled logistics.

  * Experience in European haulage is highly desirable but not essential.

  * Proven experience in a senior or managerial transport role.

  * Proactive mindset with a strong drive to improve processes and challenge the status quo.

  * Hands-on leadership style with excellent communication and relationship-building skills.

  * Ability to remain calm under pressure and handle real-time problem-solving.

  * Knowledge of transport compliance, fleet management, and route optimisation tools.

What the Client Offers

  * Competitive salary of £60,000 - £70,000 (+ Generous Package negotiable on candidate)

  * A senior role with genuine influence and the ability to shape operational processes

  * The opportunity to join a fast-paced, dynamic refrigerated logistics operation
