SalaryN/AWhat to Expect The Senior Logistics Engineer – Lineside Delivery is responsible for the end-to-end design, implementation and execution of internal material delivery systems from warehouse to lineside. The role ensures parts are safely, efficiently and consistently presented at the point of use, supporting production performance, operator ergonomics and operational stability.

The role acts as the technical authority for lineside delivery engineering, owning delivery media, material flow design, kitting and sequencing integration, and physical and system-based solutions that enable consistent production support.

Why This Role Matters:

This role forms the critical link between warehouse operations and manufacturing, ensuring that materials are delivered in the correct format, quantity, sequence and timing to support build requirements. The role ensures internal logistics solutions are safe, efficient, repeatable and adaptable to production change.

What You'll Do
· Internal Material Flow and Lineside Delivery Design:
Lead the design and optimisation of material flow from warehouse through to lineside, ensuring safe, efficient and repeatable delivery into production. Translate packaging formats into effective internal delivery methods.
· Delivery Media and Handling Solutions:
Own the specification, design and implementation of delivery media including stillages, trollies, dollies, carts and point-of-use presentation solutions, ensuring part protection, ergonomic handling and safe movement.
· Lineside Presentation, Kitting and Sequencing:
Define and implement lineside presentation standards, kitting strategies and sequencing processes to support build requirements, minimise disruption and ensure consistent presentation at point of use.
· Warehouse to Lineside Handover:
Own the interface between inbound logistics and internal delivery, ensuring smooth transition from receipt and putaway into internal logistics flows, removing inefficiencies and double handling.
· Delivery Frequency and Replenishment Strategy:
Define and optimise delivery frequencies, replenishment methods and route strategies to balance production requirements, space constraints and labour efficiency.
· Internal Logistics Projects and Launch Readiness:
Lead engineering activities for new programmes including delivery media readiness, route design and lineside capability. Represent the function in programme reviews and gateway forums.
· Stakeholder Collaboration and Governance:
Act as the engineering representative across Manufacturing, Logistics, Engineering, Quality and Facilities, ensuring alignment, stakeholder sign-off and robust decision-making.
· Data, Layout and Flow Optimisation:
Analyse layouts, routes and performance data to identify constraints and improvement opportunities across internal logistics and lineside delivery systems.
· Budget Ownership and Cost Control:
Own and manage delivery media, equipment and improvement costs, identifying opportunities to reduce spend through optimisation and standardisation.
· Internal Transport and Route Efficiency:
Work closely with warehouse and transport teams to ensure efficient unloading, internal transfer, route optimisation and timely delivery to production without bottlenecks.
· Leadership and Capability Development:
Provide technical leadership to junior engineers and operational teams, coaching in standardised processes, safe handling and delivery media use.
· Quality, Compliance and Operational Control:
Ensure all internal logistics processes and delivery media comply with safety, quality and operational standards. Implement controls to protect product integrity and reduce risk.
