Want to be part of a UK hub, in a global business that is scaling rapidly, evolving fast and radically changing the decades-old delivery universe? If so, read on, as we’re looking for a Dispatcher Supervisor to join our Network Health team!
Our mission? To switch up the status quo and become the UK’s leading out-of-home business. With a fast-growing network of thousands of smart lockers, hundreds of leading retail partners and the launch of our transformative Send service, we’re bringing freedom to anyone with a parcel.
At InPost UK, we’re building an unparalleled group of talent that’s committed to help us power our mission to reshape the way parcels move, and redefine eCommerce logistics. Our team is packed full of top-notch experts in e-commerce, technology, scale-up growth, sustainability, logistics and supply chain. We’re a passionate bunch with high ambition – we collaborate, innovate, support each other, and leave egos at the door.
About the role:
We are seeking an experienced and organised Dispatcher Team Lead to run day to day dispatch operations for our maintenance engineers and suppliers. You will own scheduling performance, ticket flow and reporting, acting as the escalation point for complex issues and ensuring consistent outcomes across the network.
What you’ll be doing:
- Lead the dispatch function - set daily priorities, allocate workload, and ensure consistent ticket handling standards
- Own end to end scheduling - engineer rota alignment, job assignment, re scheduling, and route optimisation where applicable
- Own SLA performance and tracking - monitor live SLA position, drive interventions to protect SLA, and lead escalation for breaches
- Manage ticket lifecycle - raise, update, prioritise, escalate and close tickets in line with SLAs and internal governance
- SLA governance and controls - ensure correct prioritisation, timestamps, and status management so SLA reporting is accurate and auditable
- Act as escalation point - remove blockers, manage ageing tickets, and coordinate cross team resolution (IT, Ops, Customer Care, vendors)
- Reporting and tracking ownership - produce and distribute daily reporting and maintain trackers for backlog, SLA, ageing, repeats, planned downtime, and exceptions
- Quality and compliance - ensure documentation is updated, processes followed, and audits completed to agreed standards
- Continuous improvement - identify recurring failure types, improve workflows, and tighten dispatch rules to reduce repeats and delays
- Monitoring support where required - use CCTV or remote checks to validate incidents and improve troubleshooting accuracy
- Stakeholder management - provide clear updates, manage expectations, and maintain strong internal comms cadence
- Network readiness checks - oversee auditing of newly added machines to confirm operational standards and dispatch readiness
- Team leadership - coach dispatchers, run 1 2 1s, support onboarding, maintain SOPs, and manage handovers across shifts
