  • Monitor compliance with Health & Safety requirements, SOPs, safe unloading practices, site procedures, driver standards, and incident reporting obligations.
  • Provide clear direction, coaching, and feedback to operational team members to improve PM shift performance and support consistent service delivery.
  • Escalate unresolved delivery issues, driver concerns, compliance breaches, staffing gaps, and operational risks to the Station Manager or relevant stakeholders.
  • Resolve delivery exceptions, customer concerns, damaged parcels, lost packages, and return-related issues promptly and professionally.
  • Support continuous improvement across PM shift processes, driver performance, return flows, route planning, and handover quality to uphold Dragonfly’s service standards.
