The role also incorporates internal logistics management, including the movement of plantrooms and equipment between manufacturing facilities and satellite storage locations prior to dispatch to client sites. The Logistics Co-Ordinator acts as the central control point for all logistics planning and execution, ensuring safe delivery, cost efficiency, regulatory compliance, and responsiveness to programme changes.
What You'll be Doing
This role is responsible for overseeing the full logistics lifecycle of heavy modular plantrooms and related equipment across Ireland and Europe, ensuring all transport, lifting, storage, and delivery activities are safe, compliant, and cost-effective. It involves managing oversized transport operations, coordinating internal and external movements, and integrating logistics into wider project and manufacturing schedules. The position also requires sourcing and managing subcontractors such as crane hire, haulage, and storage providers, while monitoring performance, safety, and costs. Key duties include reviewing lift plans and methodologies, coordinating on-site lifting operations, aligning logistics with project timelines, responding to programme changes, and maintaining forward schedules.
