Transport Planner Apprentice
DHL Supply Chain limited
About the Role
Our Transport Planning Programme is all about developing the skills required to become a subject matter expert. From day one, you'll take on real responsibility with a supportive culture that helps you get the most out of your time as an Apprentice, whilst building on your stakeholder management skills.
Logistics is more than getting the product from A to B. At DHL Supply Chain we combine management and value-added services with our customised, integrated logistics solutions which drive resilience, and efficiency, improve quality, and create competitive advantage. Our Data Teams assist the operational and Functional Teams in creating meaningful data which allows informed decisions to be made to ensure we are operating with financial and KPI agreed terms.
Working within our Network Transport Solutions (NTS) site, you will work with the Operational Tower Manager and Fleet Managers in executing integrated transport solutions, along with the below;
- To brief and debrief our professional Drivers
- To plan load schedules, making best use of backhaul facilities where possible to generate revenue for DHL
- To pre advise the management team of any potential failures in the Transport Operation
- To schedule work centrally using Paragon planning systems
- We want Apprentices to build their careers, with the option to complete a further Apprenticeship after completing the Transport Planner (Supply Chain practitioner) Level 3
- Apprentices can contribute their ideas to influence the success of our business and be a part of an organisation that makes an impact on society as well as on the world of logistics. After your programme you will transition into the Alumni community to continue the growth of your career
