HI, I AM...JO!
As a Multimodal Operator at SEKO Southampton, I handle the transport of cargo from its origin to the final destination by different modes of transport. Keep reading to discover what else I bring to the business...
TELL US A BIT ABOUT YOURSELF...
My name is Jo Sawyer – but you can call me the Queen of Forwarding!
As a Multimodal Operator at SEKO Southampton, I am responsible for:
- Imports and exports for different modes of transport
- Saving you time. I make it easy to arrange the movement of cargo between different locations using the right modes of transport, in the shortest possible time
- Finding cost efficiencies by choosing the best transport options to send goods
- Liaising with transport bodies, contacts and officials
WHAT IS A TYPICAL DAY IN THE LIFE?
EVERY DAY STARTS WITH...
A coffee. I wouldn't advise anyone talk to me before I've had my caffeine. I then have a quick moan about the parking, and begin my day! My morning consists of:
- Actioning emails. Customer service is a very important part of my role.
- Check in with my clients and make sure that everyone is happy and things are running smoothly.
Building strong relationships is critical for a Multimodal Operator; not only with clients but with transport bodies and officials too. I always strive to get the best deals for my clients.
PHEW, TIME FOR A BREAK...
This brings me onto lunch! As a team, we all order in from a small local takeaway, followed by some milk, tea and rice cakes!
NO DAY IS COMPLETE WITHOUT…
- Making sure all upcoming shipments are dealt with. We don't want any delays.
- Chatting with the CSG team. They work closely with one of our biggest customers. It's good to make sure we're always aligned.
I LOVE BEING A PART OF OPERATIONS!
Every day is different! There's always the opportunity to learn something new and challenge myself. But the main reason I love my job is because of the fantastic people I get to work with. We are more like a family than work colleagues.
