If you're as ambitious as we are and eager to advance your career in Supply Chain Logistics, this is your opportunity to make a real impact. Join us as a Transport Administrator on a permanent basis at our Fresh Direct depot in Bicester, Oxfordshire.  You'll play a vital role in ensuring smooth and efficient operations; working closely with managers, multiple departments, and the wider team to drive seamless solutions that enhance our delivery service.

This is an onsite role where you will be required during critical operational hours on rotating shifts. You'll be part of a team of administrators, collaborating effectively across shifts to keep our operations running smoothly.  Together you will support drivers once they've completed their deliveries, ensuring that every debrief is thorough and all performance metrics are captured accurately. You'll handle filing, paperwork preparation, and professional communication via phone, managing both incoming and outgoing calls with confidence. Additionally, your computer literacy will be key as you'll be entering data, processing invoices and credit notes.

We’re looking for someone with a proactive mindset, if you are someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment and embraces change to elevate overall customer experience.  To excel in this role, you'll need to be a strong communicator with previous customer service experience in a fast-paced setting.  Having a solid understanding of Microsoft Outlook, Excel, is essential (ERP systems SAP or D365 of an additional advantage). If you have experience in fleet or distribution, that’s a plus—but not a deal-breaker. We believe in training the right people, so if you bring a can-do attitude and a willingness to learn, we’ll give you everything you need to succeed.

This is a great role that offers the opportunity for progression within a large organisation.  In addition to a competitive monthly salary, 31 days annual leave (inc. statutory) and company pension, you can also look forward to the following benefits:

• Wagestream – Access to an app that gives you early access to your earned salary and supports financial wellbeing
• The option to purchase additional annual leave
• Help at Hand - Access to 24/7 GP appointments, physiotherapy and a range of health and wellbeing services for you and your family
• Life assurance
• Access to Sysco Perks offering discounts across a wide range of products and services – from gym membership to your weekly supermarket shop
• The ability to purchase our products at hugely discounted prices
