Key responsibilities include managing day-to-day planning and resource allocation across UK locations, collaborating with operators, port supervisors, and drivers for seamless workflows, and supporting the Customer Service team with planning-related queries. You will monitor and adapt schedules to meet changing demands, optimise fleet usage, assist with KPI tracking, and utilize TOPS and Microsoft Office tools to streamline planning processes. Multi-port and inland terminal experience and strong Microsoft Office skills are preferred. Initial training will be based at London Gateway.

Avail pays everyone a week in lieu, every Friday, meaning that you’ll never wait more than a week to be paid for completed shifts.
Avail has both LTD and PAYE work, but the customer dictates which they can accept in line with IR35 and insurance requirements.
