We are continually inspired by pets and animals to be better people, both in our careers and our everyday life, making an impact for Pets, People and the Planet!

We’re built on family values, combined with a genuine passion for pets and people. We operate with heart, inclusivity, and inspiration for pets, people, and the  this role, you’ll be the driving force behind creating a safe, compliant, and high‑performing transport network. You’ll design, implement, and optimise the policies, systems, and processes that ensure our transport operations run safely, legally, and efficiently every day.

You’ll empower teams across the business to understand and confidently meet their Chain of Responsibility (CoR) obligations—building a strong culture of accountability and proactive risk management.

* Provide second-line assurance by conducting audits, inspections and risk assessments, verifying control effectiveness and monitoring performance, risks and breaches.
* Build CoR capability and a safety-first culture by advising stakeholders, promoting safe transport practices and embedding responsibilities into daily operations.
* Support regulatory readiness and continuous improvement through incident investigations, NHVR/regulator engagement, legal evidence preparation, data analysis and improvement initiatives.

You’ll thrive in this role if you have:
* Proven experience in transport compliance, logistics safety or regulatory environments, with strong knowledge of CoR, HVNL, fatigue management and transport safety standards.
* Demonstrated capability in audits, investigations, corrective actions and engagement with regulators and external providers.
