Pathway One
Start date: Flexible
Typical duration: 15 Months

​
While warehouse managers are responsible for buildings, equipment and people, the primary responsibility of supervisors and managers should be to identify and then remove barriers to productivity.
Most productivity losses in warehouses result from conditions that can and should be corrected by management. By asking how they can be of help, rather than focusing on errors or problems, warehouse managers and supervisors can develop a collaborative relationship with workers, leading to increased productivity.
In their day-to-day work, a warehouse operations supervisor interacts with a range of stakeholders and third party agents across a number of organisations and professions, as well as leading a team which would vary in size depending on the organisation.

LEVEL 3
Transport Operations Supervisor
Pathway Two
Start date: Flexible
Typical duration: 15 Months
Transportation is the ‘lifeline’ of the nation. Its infrastructure has added speed and efficiency to the UK’s recovery following the pandemic. Given the importance of transportation to the economy, it is only natural that effective transportation management is critical in keeping a whole company’s supply chain running smoothly.
​
Transport Supervisors are an integral part of the successful daily operations in a transport and warehousing sector, but may also be found in other fast paced sectors including hauliers, couriers, retailers and utilities.
​
They are responsible for applying their knowledge and expertise to manage their own work with a high level of autonomy as well as having an awareness of best practice in transport operations to ensure compliant, secure and safe working within the organisations policy and procedures.
