Job Description

Fleet Manager

Ocado Logistics | Dordon, Tamworth

Monday–Friday | Core office hours | On-site

Why Ocado?

Here at Ocado Logistics, it’s our mission to provide an outstanding customer experience for our partners, developing groundbreaking technology, opening multiple sites at an accelerating rate and engaging in exciting new business partnerships around the world - changing the way the world shops, for good.

We are the beating heart of our UK business and comprise a network of cutting edge warehouses and offices across the country that ensure that we optimise the experience and use our proprietary technology across the supply chain to deliver an exceptional shopping experience. At the same time delivering bags of possibilities for our employees and a career that will ensure no two days are ever the same.

This is an opportunity to become a key part of our Dordon LGV operation, taking ownership of a critical area of the business and working alongside an experienced transport management team.

If you're ready to bring your fleet expertise to a role where you can make a real difference, we'd love to hear from you!

We’re looking for someone to take ownership of our LGV fleet at our Dordon site, playing a key role in keeping our fleet safe, compliant, well-maintained and operational.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a fast-paced logistics operation where your fleet expertise will have a direct impact on the day-to-day running of the site.

About the Role

As Fleet Manager, you’ll take responsibility for the day-to-day management and administration of our fleet of approximately 80 fleet units and 106 trailers.

You’ll be the go-to person for fleet information, documentation, compliance and processes, working closely with internal teams, suppliers and external service providers.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Managing fleet information, records, audits and reporting.
  • Ensuring fleet and vehicle documentation remains accurate and compliant.
  • Coordinating MOTs, servicing, fridge maintenance and inspections.
  • Managing vehicle defects and fleet documentation.
  • Chasing tax paperwork and arranging V5s and MOT certificates.
  • Coordinating fleet collections, deliveries and transfers.
  • Monitoring fleet compliance and supporting the site's Operator Licence requirements.
  • Analysing fleet data, identifying trends and making recommendations.
  • Working closely with suppliers, service providers and internal stakeholders.
  • Supporting Health & Safety and ensuring safe working practices.
  • Providing wider operational support to the LGV management team when required.

What to Expect

This is a varied role where no two days will be exactly the same.

You’ll have ownership of the fleet administration function while working alongside a wider LGV operation, giving you the opportunity to build strong relationships across the site and make a real difference to how the fleet operates.

Although the role doesn't have direct reports, there will be opportunities to support the wider LGV team, attend meetings and contribute to a positive and high-performing working environment.

You'll need to be organised, proactive and comfortable managing multiple priorities, with a strong eye for detail and the confidence to challenge or escalate issues when required.

Who Should Apply?

We're particularly interested in hearing from people with previous fleet experience.

You could currently be working as a:

  • Fleet Manager
  • Fleet Administrator
  • Fleet Coordinator
  • Fleet Operations professional
  • Similar fleet-focused role

You'll ideally have experience working within a busy fleet or transport environment and be confident managing documentation, compliance, servicing and supplier relationships.

We're looking for someone who is:

  • Experienced in fleet management or administration
  • Highly organised with excellent attention to detail
  • Confident working with data, systems and reporting
  • A strong communicator and problem solver
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced operational environment
  • Knowledgeable around fleet compliance and legislation
  • Flexible and proactive in their approach
  • A current UK driving licence holder

LGV legislation, Health & Safety, financial or people-management experience would be advantageous, but previous fleet experience is the key requirement.

What you can expect to receive in return -

At Ocado we believe in a workplace where everyone feels valued and supported, so you’ll find a safe and collaborative atmosphere that is as fresh as our produce as well as an award winning recognition programme and benefits package that includes a healthy work-life balance, extensive healthcare coverage, competitive salaries, and exclusive employee discounts.
