RELOcruitment are proud to be working with a respected, multi-award-winning firm in the specialist Removals & Storage industry.

With decades of success and a reputation for delivering excellence across the UK and internationally, they’re now looking for a Transport-savvy Operations Controller to join their growing Manchester branch.

If you come from a transport, logistics, or fleet management background and are looking for something a bit different — where your skills are still highly valued but you can also learn a new, rewarding niche — this could be the perfect move.

What You'll Be Doing:
• Take charge of day-to-day operational activity across vehicles, crews, and schedules.
• Ensure all jobs are executed efficiently and in line with service expectations.
• Maximise the utilisation of fleet and staff, working closely with sales/admin teams.
• Maintain strict compliance with transport legislation and H&S guidelines.
• Keep vehicle and driver records up to date and audit ready.
• Proactively resolve operational issues and improve service delivery.
• Lead, develop, and motivate your crew teams to deliver with pride and professionalism.
• Help drive performance and profitability in partnership with the Branch Manager.

Who We’re Looking For:
• A strong background in transport, logistics or fleet operations.
• Solid understanding of transport legislation, fleet compliance, and maintenance processes.
• Confident leading operational teams and managing time-sensitive workflows.
• Organised, proactive, and commercially aware.
• Good with systems, Excel, and the day-to-day admin side of running transport ops.
• Previous removals experience is a bonus — but not essential.

Full industry training will be given.

Why Join?
• Step into a niche, growing industry where every day is different.
• Be part of a team that values quality, people, and professional pride.
• Work with a company that is expanding and winning awards — with real career growth potential.
• Learn the removals industry from the inside while applying the transport expertise you already have.
