Job description
Transport Planner Control the Operation. Protect the Margin. Keep Everything Moving. Location: Manchester Company: JAMA Logistics Type: Full-time The Nerve Centre of JAMA Logistics Let’s be honest about this role. At JAMA Logistics , Transport Planning is not an admin function. It’s not a support role. And it’s definitely not a place to coast. This is the control room. The pressure point. The difference between profit and problems. If drivers are our road ambassadors, planners are the architects behind every successful move . Who We Are JAMA Logistics delivers professional, reliable logistics solutions across multiple sectors. We’re growing fast, but we’re not cutting corners. Growth only matters if standards rise with it—and that starts with the people behind the wheel. The Role Based in Manchester City Centre , this role sits right at the heart of daily operations. You’ll be responsible for planning, coordinating, and controlling transport activity end to end — from customer contact and quoting, to execution, tracking, and invoicing. This role rewards people who: Think ahead Spot problems before they happen Stay calm when others panic And understand that details compound into results What You’ll Be Responsible For Liaising with customers and drivers via phone, email, and other platforms Quoting clients accurately and commercially Booking consignments and gathering all required documentation Planning and tracking collections and deliveries in real time Managing and completing transport documentation Invoicing completed loads daily Keeping operations running smoothly under time pressure Communicating clearly across drivers, customers, and internal teams What We Expect From You Previous experience as a Transport Planner Strong customer service and relationship-building skills A proactive, commercial mindset Clear and confident written and verbal communication Excellent attention to detail Ability to work calmly under pressure and to deadlines Strong organisation and prioritisation skills Ability to multitask without losing accuracy A team-first attitude with the confidence to take ownership A genuine desire to learn, improve, and progress What You Get in Return £25,500 – £27,000 salary (negotiable based on experience) Up to £5,200 annual bonus tied to performance A role in a growing, ambitious logistics business Clear progression opportunities for high performers A professional, spacious office with amenities City centre location with excellent transport links Free on-site parking Holidays and company pension Casual dress code Team days out, incentives, and a strong performance culture Why JAMA Logistics? Because planning here actually matters. Because good decisions are recognised. And because sharp people get opportunities — not excuses. If you’re organised, commercially minded, and take pride in keeping complex operations running smoothly, this role will challenge you in the right way.
