Transport

You may be experienced in Transport, or you may be looking for your first job. Choosing your career can be difficult. This will depend on your experience, qualifications and career goals.

There are many different jobs available, from Transport Managers, Transport Planners, Logistics Operators, Principle Transportation Modellers through to Distribution Operatives.

Transport Managers have responsibility for planning the routes and schedules of drivers involved in road haulage, distribution and logistics or passenger transport. They must ensure that all operations are carried out in accordance with UK and EU laws and regulations governing vehicle safety, environmental controls on fuel emissions and traffic congestion, driver hours, customs requirements, and food hygiene where applicable. The most economical method of completing the journey must be calculated as there will be budgetary restrictions.

The essential qualification for a Transport Manager is the Certificate of Professional Competence (CPC) of the Department for Transport, Local Government and Regions (DTLR) - (Department of the Environment in Northern Ireland), which equates approximately to NVQ level 3. Every site operating a road transport business is required to have at least one person (usually a manager) with this qualification.

There are four types of certificate: National or International Road Haulage Operations; National or International Passenger Transport Operations. The training for these qualifications is offered at many centres throughout the UK - a list of centres is available from Skills for Logistics; the list is also available via the Skills for Logistics website. Applicants for road transport manager positions will be expected to have the relevant certificate.

There is no other specific qualification requirement to enter work as a road Transport Manager. Many people work up to management level from positions as a driver, clerical assistant, administrator, or warehouse operative. Some move into this work from management positions in other sectors.

You can enter road transport management as a graduate in any subject, or with a specialist degree in transport management, or a degree in business studies or planning with options in transport. Some people enter with an MSc in transportation management.

Job Hunting

If you are searching for a job today specifically, there are the traditional methods of job searching, which includes responding to newspaper ads, applying directly to employers, and signing on with a recruitment agency. With the advent of the internet, there now exists another, more powerful, medium with which to search for jobs.

The internet is fast becoming a dominant force in bringing candidates and employers together in an effective way. There are now numerous "Job Boards" on the internet that advertise vacancies from all over the UK.

These Job Boards on the internet are a very effective resource for candidates, recruitment agencies and employers. As a candidate searching for a job on the internet, you can do so from your home, as long as you have a PC and an internet connection. If you are seeking employment in the Transport area then the job website transport-recruitment.co.uk makes your task very simple, it offers you a direct resource for Transport job vacancies that are currently listed on the major job boards.

Additionally, you can register on these Job Boards for vacancy alerts and job news sent to you via email. You simply specify your requirements for the type of job (eg. Sales Careers), and you are then alerted immediately a vacancy that may be of interest is lodged on the Job Board.

A recent trend in internet recruitment is that employers and candidates are becoming very specific in their requirements, with a strong emphasis now on local recruitment. Companies are very interested in finding candidates that are local to their business. The reason here is that companies can save on relocation costs. Of course, if they cannot find the right skills locally, then they must look further afield.

Most employers are looking for skills that closely match the requirements of the job. This saves them additional training costs. Given this, it is important to emphasize your experience on the CV. Education is really secondary (unless the vacancy is a very technical one that requires a strong educational background).

Also bear in mind that recruitment agents will really only be interested in promoting you if they have a specific vacancy that they believe you are a good match for. If you do not have the skills, experience or education required for the current vacancies, then your CV will most likely not be considered. This does make things difficult if you are trying to change industry sectors. Experience is generally the key! So look for vacancies that you can match with your skills and experience.

If you obtain vacancies that match more closely your skills, then you can be more confident in getting the job. This will come across in the interview and will hopefully be a major influence in you securing a job.
