About the Role

As a Transport Manager, you are responsible for the daily planning and coordination of the company's logistics operations. You lead the logistics department and ensure that transports are carried out efficiently with high service and quality.

The role is broad and varied, involving both operational and administrative responsibilities. No two days are alike, which requires flexibility, structure, and good problem-solving skills.

In the beginning, you will be very present on-site to get to know the organization and build good relationships with both employees and customers.

• Lead and distribute work within the logistics department.
• Have personnel responsibility for approximately 10 drivers.
• Work closely with customers and ensure a high level of service.

• Speak and write Swedish fluently.

Merits

• Experience from the transport, recycling, or haulage industry.
• Knowledge of trucks, crane exchanges, or other heavy vehicle logistics.

• Service-oriented and always put the customer first.
• Structured and responsible.
• Flexible and thrive in a high work pace.
