Logistics Project Manager

Our client, a well-established logistics service provider is looking for a highly organised, detail-driven Logistics Project Manager to manage complex national and international logistics projects. This role is not operational or site-based. It is a planning-intensive, computer-based role that involves deep focus, structured thinking, spreadsheet-driven project build-outs, and coordination of multiple suppliers and stakeholders. If you genuinely enjoy planning, structuring information, building detailed spreadsheets, and managing moving parts end-to-end, this role will suit you exceptionally well.

• Manage national and international logistics projects from initial brief through to completion
• Receive, analyse, and fully understand detailed client briefing documents
• Translate project briefs into structured project plans, timelines, and workflows
• Build and maintain detailed project spreadsheets, including multiple work streams and divisions
• Capture and manage packing lists for all items to be received, stored, and shipped
• Plan and coordinate collections across multiple suppliers and locations
• Allocate and track project costs across departments (wrapping, crating, transport, storage, shipping, installations)
• Develop flow charts and timelines to manage dependencies, lead times, and critical paths
• Coordinate internal teams, subcontractors, and external suppliers
• Plan required resources, team sizes, and subcontractor involvement per project
• Proactively identify risks, gaps, and workflow issues before they impact delivery
• Conduct ongoing follow-ups to ensure deadlines, cost controls, and project milestones are met
