Britain’s transport and distribution industry needs intelligent, highly motivated young people who are keen to carve out a career for themselves as Transport and Distribution specialists. Apprenticeships provide a way in for just these people and are focused at two levels: Foundation and Advanced.
Logistics apprenticeships offer the opportunity to gain valuable skills in one of 4 specialisms all of which lead towards gaining a Level 2 public qualification:
-
Traffic Specialists – plan routes and organise loads to ensure goods reach their destination on time and in good condition. To do this job well you’ll need a quick brain and the ability to think on your feet.
-
Warehouse Specialists – organise the handling, storage, packing and movement of goods in and out of the warehouse. To do this job well you’ll need to be highly organised and ready to take responsibility.
-
Professional Drivers – when you’re out on the road in charge of up to 38 tonnes of awesome power and a valuable cargo on board, you are literally in the hot seat. You’ll need your wits about you and be ready to make decisions every moment of every mile.
-
Postal Operatives – deal with the collection, processing and delivery of mail to and from businesses and individuals.
