* Good with people, drivers and colleagues alike, and confident managing them effectively
* Solid computer skills, full training on their in-house systems is provided
* Calm and organised under pressure, with sharp attention to detail
* Flexible on hours when the job demands it
On offer
* £30,000 - £34,000 depending on experience
