Practical transport management, without the complexity.
From securing your first operator licence to keeping your fleet compliant day after day, I provide the expertise and hands-on support that new and growing operators need — without the overhead of a full-time transport manager.
Operator Licence Support
Getting your operator licence right from the start is one of the most important steps you'll take as a transport operator. I guide you through the entire process — clearly and without jargon.
- Standard and restricted licence applications
- Operating centre requirements and authorisation
- Financial standing guidance
- Preparing for Traffic Commissioner hearings
- Licence variations and amendments
- Responding to DVSA or Traffic Commissioner correspondence
Whether you're applying for the first time or dealing with a licence issue, I'll make sure you understand exactly where you stand and what needs to happen next.
Ongoing Compliance Management
Compliance isn't a one-off task — it's an ongoing commitment. As your named external transport manager, I help you build and maintain the systems that keep your operation legal and your licence secure.
- Maintenance planning and preventive inspection schedules
- Driver licence and CPC checks
- Working time and drivers' hours monitoring
- Tachograph analysis and record keeping
- DVSA roadworthiness and operator compliance risk score (OCRS) management
- Preparation for DVSA investigations and audits
I help you put the right systems in place so that compliance becomes part of how you operate — not a last-minute scramble before an inspection.
Fleet Management & Administration
Keeping vehicles roadworthy and records up to date takes time and attention to detail. I take that burden off your hands so you can focus on running your business.
- Vehicle inspection and maintenance record management
- MOT and annual test scheduling
- Defect reporting systems and walkaround check procedures
- Contractor and workshop liaison
- Fleet documentation and filing
- Vehicle additions and removals from licence
Good fleet management protects your vehicles, your drivers, and your licence. I make sure nothing gets missed.
Day-to-Day Management Support
Sometimes you just need someone to call. As your external transport manager, I'm available to answer questions, review decisions, and provide the kind of practical guidance that only comes from real industry experience.
- Named transport manager for your operator licence
- Advice on driver conduct and disciplinary matters
- Guidance on subcontracting and agency driver use
- Policy and procedure development
- Staff training and awareness sessions
- Regular compliance reviews and reporting
Think of me as the transport expertise in your corner — available when you need it, without the cost of a full-time hire.
Not sure which service you need?
Most operators start with a conversation. Tell me about your operation and I'll give you an honest assessment of where you stand and what support would make the biggest difference.
