Logistics Coordinator

Description:

Logistics Coordinator- Kirkcaldy

I'm working with a growing international business looking to add a Logistics Coordinator to their team. This is a brilliant opportunity to own consignments end to end, build relationships with carriers, and keep supply chains moving across the UK, EU, and worldwide. This is a site based role, Mon–Fri 08:30–17:00.

Graduates take note: if you've had exposure to logistics, supply chain, or procurement through university placements or projects, this could be exactly the springboard you're looking for. You'll be reporting into a Logistics Manager who is a brilliant mentor, someone who invests in developing the people in his team.

What you'll be doing

* Owning consignments end to end, from dispatch through to customer delivery

* Tracking shipments and managing exceptions, making sure everything is logged, communicated, and followed up

* Building strong partnerships with carriers and suppliers

* Working closely with internal teams: sales, warehouse, IT, and accounts

* Helping establish SLAs with internal stakeholders

* Preparing shipping and basic customs documentation

* Supporting the wider logistics team day to day

What we're looking for

* Strong analytical skills, confident using data to spot problems and solve them

* Strong Excel (formulas, lookups, pivots; macros/VBA a bonus)

* Comfortable with freight costs and KPI reporting

* Organised, detail driven, and able to juggle multiple tasks

* A clear communicator, confident at all levels

* Proactive, happy with autonomy, and enjoys suggesting improvements

Nice to have

* Exposure to logistics, supply chain, or procurement (uni, placements, or work)

* ERP systems (SAP, Oracle, etc.) or freight software

* Basic knowledge of international shipping and freight terminology

This role would really suit someone who wants to build a career in logistics, gain global exposure, and learn from a supportive team and a manager who continually develops people
