The working day is extremely varied and no two days are the same. Weekends are extremely busy and hectic with the expected disruptions from various airlines. There will be issues and problems to resolve, constant interruptions from staff, students and visitors, paperwork to complete, phone calls to take and meetings to attend. In spite of this busy environment and the hectic nature of the job, the Logistics Coordinator is expected to ensure high standards are maintained, deal promptly with any incidents or issues and to anticipate any potential problems.
The day will be long, tiring and often quite challenging due to physical and mental pressures of the job, but it will also be extremely varied, spontaneous and fast-moving and you will feel a real sense of achievement, camaraderie and teamwork at the end of course
