Job description

Container Control Administrator (Junior)

Location: Rainham

Hours: Full Time 9am – 5pm

Salary: Competitive / DOE

The Role

Our client is looking for a reliable and organised Container Control Administrator to join our team and support the day-to-day tracking of our container fleet.

This is a hands-on admin role working closely with depots, and operations. Accuracy matters — this role helps make sure containers are where they should be and correctly recorded for billing.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Entering container movements into the system (on hire, off hire, transfers, sales)
• Keeping container records accurate and up to date
• Checking paperwork and chasing missing information
• Flagging anything that doesn’t look right — not guessing
• Supporting stock checks and investigations into missing containers
• Dealing with basic container queries from depots and operations

Who We’re Looking For

• Reliable, organised, and willing to learn
• Strong attention to detail
• Excellent IT and excel skills
• Confident enough to ask questions when things don’t add up
• Practical, common-sense approach to work

Essential

• Experience in logistics, transport, yard, or depot environments

Desirable (But Not Essential)

• Previous container control or container admin experience
• Exposure to hire, rental, or asset tracking systems

What You’ll Get

• Clear progression opportunities
• A stable role in a busy, hands-on environment
• Straight-talking team — no corporate nonsense

Salary dependent on experience

25 days holiday plus benefits
