Administration Supervisor

Are you an experienced warehouse administrator ready to take the next step? Do you thrive in a fast‑paced logistics environment where accuracy, organisation and problem‑solving really matter? Are you confident leading others and keeping operations running smoothly behind the scenes? If you’re organised, analytical, people‑focused and ready for more responsibility, this could be the perfect next step in your logistics career.

Here at GXO Logistics, we’re looking for an Administration Supervisor to support the warehouse and transport operation on our high‑profile B&Q contract in Cambuslang. In this role, you’ll lead the administration function, ensuring that orders, stock, system activity and reporting are processed accurately, efficiently and in line with customer expectations. You’ll coach and support administrative colleagues and operational teams, acting as the go‑to person for data, systems, compliance and problem‑solving.

This is a full-time, permanent position working on an ‘any 5 from 7’ shift pattern. Predominantly you’ll work Monday to Friday, 08:00 – 16:00. However, flexibility is essential — this is logistics after all!

Pay, benefits and more:

You’ll be paid a salary of up to £32,000 per annum. You’ll also receive 25 days annual leave (plus bank holidays), as well as the option to buy additional days so you can enjoy a positive work-life balance. Your benefits package includes flexible dental insurance plans, a company sponsored pension scheme, a 24/7 online GP service, life assurance and a fully comprehensive employee assistance programme. You’ll also have access to our MyBenefits platform offering a variety of high street discounts, a cycle to work scheme, cashback cards, a saving scheme and much more! Including our GXO University which provides you the opportunity to learn new skills and gain qualifications at a pace that you’re comfortable with.

What you’ll do on a typical day:

• Oversee all warehouse and transport administration processes, ensuring accuracy and compliance
• Process store orders, goods-in data, productivity reporting and stock control tasks
• Act as a system “Super User”, resolving stock and WMS issues and supporting colleagues
• Investigate late picks, stock discrepancies and supplier POD queries, providing timely resolutions
• Lead, coach and support admin and operational colleagues through 1‑2‑1s, feedback and behavioural conversations
• Maintain strong communication with suppliers, National Planning, warehouse teams and other GXO functions
• Support stock counts, audits, KPI reporting and continuous improvement initiatives across the site
• Set the standard for customer service, accuracy, system compliance and safe working practices

What you need to succeed at GXO:

• Experience in a warehouse administration role, ideally with experience supervising or coaching, within a fast-paced logistics environment
• Strong PC skills, including confident use of Excel (formulas, reporting, data accuracy) and WMS platforms
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to work effectively with different teams
• Strong organisational skills with a high level of attention to detail
• Ability to problem-solve, prioritise and work at pace
