Transport Operations Trainer
We are currently seeking a Transport Operations Trainer, a key position dedicated to fostering a safe, productive and inclusive environment across our Depots. In this role, you will conduct assessments for commercial drivers, identify training needs, and deliver both on-road and classroom-based training tailored to their operations.
This role can based at either our Wetherby or Boldon Depot.
Collaboration with regional and national fleet management teams is essential to identify training needs related to compliance metrics, including tachograph infringements and road traffic collisions. Staying updated on legislative changes impacting drivers and vehicles is also a key aspect of your role, allowing you to introduce improvement opportunities at local, regional, and national levels.
Key Accountabilities:
- Conduct driving assessments for both new and existing drivers, particularly those involved in at-fault traffic incidents.
- Deliver targeted retraining or escalate issues as needed.
- Conduct behavioural observations to ensure adherence to safe working practices.
- Provide C&C-specific Driver CPC training and facilitate vehicle familiarisation sessions.
- Address driver queries related to tachograph rules and the Working Time Directive.
- Deliver toolbox talks and assist in accident investigations.
- Ensure that driver and vehicle standards align with company expectations.
- Coordinate new starter inductions and maintain accurate training records.
- Engage with colleagues and participate in Health & Safety committee meetings.
- Review commercial driver performance through hands-on engagement and data scrutiny, addressing non-compliance issues alongside the Transport Management team.
- Identify training needs and promote continuous improvement opportunities for commercial drivers.
- Foster cross-departmental collaboration to enhance team effectiveness.
- Work closely with internal teams such as Depot Managers, Operations Managers, Fleet Compliance Teams, HSE Teams, Transport Operations Managers, and HR.
- Liaise with external bodies including the Traffic Commissioner, DVSA and vehicle maintenance contractors.
