About Joloda Hydraroll
Joloda Hydraroll design and manufacture loading systems that get goods on and off trucks and trailers faster. They've been doing it for over 60 years, with more than 500,000 systems installed and around 85% of output exported. Customers include Amazon, DHL and Nestlé.
What used to be a simpler product range now runs to thousands of parts, feeding a much more complex production operation across the Liverpool and Anglesey sites.
The role
You'll take charge of everything that moves inside the business: parts into production, kitting and line-side supply, transfers between sites and despatch to customers. This is internal, production logistics – not fleet or transport management.
Success means orders going out complete and on time (90%+ OTIF), accurate stock and lower handling and freight costs.
You'll:
Develop the UK internal and external logistics strategy
Control part supply into manufacturing across around 10,000 live parts
Build and run kitting and line-side logistics so production never waits
Manage inventory and stock takes across both sites to KPI targets
Plan and manage despatch: shipment method, packaging, utilisation and OTIF
Work with procurement and suppliers to schedule deliveries and cut freight costs
Analyse logistics data and report to support operational decisions
Lead, mentor and develop the logistics team
What you'll bring
Essential
Degree or equivalent qualification in a relevant discipline
Proven experience in production or manufacturing logistics, materials planning or supply chain
Highly numerate, with advanced Excel skills
Experience working with ERP or inventory management systems
Useful, not essential
Experience leading or managing a team
Background in automotive or other high part-count manufacturing
Knowledge of kitting, line-side supply or lean principles
Experience with parts location systems such as labelling or RFID
Benefits and culture
Development:
Full training on Factory Master, the site ERP system, and cross-department processes.
Working arrangements
Pattern:
Typically 3 days a week in Liverpool and 2 in Anglesey, can be discussed
Commute:
Ideally suited to someone based around Chester or the M56 corridor
