About the Role

We’re on the lookout for a confident and capable Logistics Coordinator to join a dynamic Time Critical team based in Redditch. This is an office-based role where you’ll take charge of ensuring vital shipments move from A to B—efficiently, cost-effectively, and most importantly, on time. Whether it’s by air, road, or hand-carry, you’ll be the calm in the chaos, coordinating critical deliveries and keeping customers informed every step of the way.

This isn’t a role for the faint-hearted—if the phrase “line stoppage” doesn’t scare you and you can juggle quotes, bookings, and problem-solving while sipping your morning brew, you’re probably who we’re looking for.

What You’ll Be Doing in this Logistics Coordinator role

  • Booking and tracking UK/EU and international shipments
  • Quoting transport solutions and offering multiple routing options
  • Managing and resolving line stoppage emergencies like a pro
  • Coordinating with suppliers and internal teams
  • Maintaining clear communication with customers and providing updates
  • Closing out job files, chasing PODs and required documentation
  • Monitoring KPIs and maintaining system data accuracy
  • Collaborating with warehouse, operations, and accounts to ensure smooth workflows
  • Always keeping one eye on cost-effectiveness and profit margins

What We’re Looking For in this Logistics Coordinator role

  • A transport/logistics background – UK, EU or international (European planning experience is essential)
  • High attention to detail and the ability to stay calm under pressure
  • Previous experience working in a fast-paced, reactive environment
  • Excellent communication and problem-solving skills
  • Computer literate (MS Office, email, spreadsheets, and databases)
  • Highly organised with a “can-do” attitude and a team-first mindset
  • Ability to prioritise conflicting requirements and multitask effectively
  • A second language is a plus, but not essential
  • CPC qualification is a bonus
  • Some weekend work required on a rota basis

What’s on Offer for this Logistics Coordinator role?

  • Salary of £32-36,000 per annum
  • Monday to Friday, 8:30am – 5:00pm (½ hour break)
  • Friendly team and a dynamic work environment
