  • Problem Solver: Help drivers report defects and ensure they're fixed ASAP.
  • Site Management: Keep the depot flowing safely, managing traffic and equipment like fuel pumps and jump packs.
  • Brand Boss: Make sure our drivers are rocking the DPD uniform and the vans are sparkling.

Weekly Focus:

  • Stay organized using Google Calendar to track vehicle notices.
  • Collaborate with the Transport Team to review any outstanding repairs.
  • Manage stock (lights, mirrors, etc.) and keep our HGV fleet data accurate.
