Fine art and specialist logistics is one of the most fascinating corners of the transport world — one day you're planning the safe collection of a gallery installation, the next you're routing a fleet across the country for a high-value relocation. No two weeks look the same, and the work genuinely matters to the clients who trust you with it. We're recruiting on behalf of a well-established, specialist logistics operator for a Transport Logistics Supervisor to join their transport leadership team. This is a desk-based, planning-heavy role at the heart of the operation — you'll be the person keeping the wheels turning (literally) behind the scenes. You don't need art industry experience. What you do need is genuine transport and logistics know-how, and — most importantly — real confidence managing drivers and crews. What you'll be doing: * Managing rotas and availability for 15+ drivers and technicians, scheduling collections and deliveries and keeping resources optimally allocated * Planning and coordinating weekly domestic logistics activity, with the flexibility to adapt when plans change at short notice * Providing phone support to drivers on the road and acting as a calm, capable point of contact when things go sideways * Monitoring driver hours, CPC compliance and holiday/timekeeping alongside line managers * Coordinating vehicle servicing, MOTs and workshop visits * Assisting with import/export customs processes for cross-border jobs * Building strong client relationships, providing quotations and follow-up * Working closely with Projects, Shipping, Customs and Warehouse teams, plus supporting recruitment and onboarding of new drivers What we're looking for: * Proven experience in transport, fleet planning, logistics or distribution * Previous supervisory or team-leading experience * A proper grafter — hardworking, hands-on and happy to get stuck in rather than just delegate * Someone who can confidently manage a wide range of driver personalities: give clear direction, hold people accountable, and stay unflustered under pressure * Excellent UK geographical knowledge * Highly organised with strong attention to detail and a methodical approach * A proactive problem-solver, comfortable thinking on your feet * Comfortable being contactable by mobile/WhatsApp outside normal hours for urgent driver queries — this isn't routine out-of-hours working, just being reachable when genuinely needed What's on offer: * £40,000 salary * Monday–Friday, 8am–5pm (1-hour lunch) — no weekend working * A genuinely varied, fast-paced role at the centre of a specialist logistics operation * The chance to join a close-knit transport leadership team where your planning and organisation make a real, visible difference If you're a transport professional who thrives on keeping plates spinning, loves a challenge, and wants to bring that skill into a genuinely interesting corner of the logistics world — we'd love to hear from you
