About the Company

Our client is an established transport and logistics company operating on the international market. As a Transport Manager, you are offered a developmental role where you have the opportunity to specialize in complex transport assignments.

More information about the company will be provided later in the recruitment process.

About the Role

We are currently looking for a Transport Manager for an international transport operation where you will play a central role in planning and coordinating transports across Europe.

Unlike many traditional transport manager roles, you work here with longer planning horizons and are responsible for the entire transport chain. You ensure that the right resources are in place, plan routes, coordinate drivers, and follow up on transports from start to finish.

The role involves close collaboration with colleagues, customers, and drivers, where you act as the hub between several different functions. You will gradually build specialist knowledge within the business and gain a deep understanding of the regulations, permits, and processes governing international transport.

More concretely, the duties include:

• Planning and coordination of national and international transports
• Route planning and resource planning for vehicles and drivers
• Follow-up of ongoing transports and handling of deviations
• Contact with customers, drivers, and external partners
• Work with customs and transport-related administration
• Ensuring compliance with driving and rest time regulations

About You

To thrive in this role, we believe you are someone who appreciates structure, planning, and long-term thinking. You have the ability to keep many details together while maintaining the big picture and looking several steps ahead.

Since the role involves close collaboration with colleagues, drivers, and external contacts, it is important that you are communicative, unpretentious, and relationship-building. You enjoy collaborating and have an easy time building trust with those around you.

We also believe you are curious and have a genuine interest in transport and logistics. You are motivated by learning new things and enjoy diving into complex processes and regulations. At the same time, you are flexible and solution-oriented when conditions change.

The following are requirements for the position:

• Experience in transport management of road transports, either through studies or work experience
• Very good knowledge of Swedish and English, both spoken and written
• Good administrative skills
• Good IT and system proficiency

Merits:

• Knowledge of German
