Responsibilities
- Design, build, and maintain efficient delivery and collection routes using route optimization tools (e.g., Omnitracs / Solera, Roadnet), balancing service levels, cost, and asset utilization
- Continuously refine routing strategies (e.g., resequencing, start time adjustments, territory design) to improve network performance and reduce transportation costs
- Support daily routing execution, including real-time adjustments for add-on orders, unscheduled collections, traffic, weather, and equipment or driver constraints
- Monitor real-time fleet performance using telematics platforms (e.g., Samsara, Geotab) to track KPIs such as on-time delivery and collection, idle time, route adherence, and driver behaviour
- Identify trends and performance gaps, and proactively recommend improvements to increase efficiency, utilization, and compliance
- Analyze transportation data (mileage, stops, service times, cost metrics) and produce daily, weekly, and monthly reporting
- Develop and track KPIs such as cost per stop, stops per route, route adherence, load factor, and service performance across delivery and collection operations
- Translate data into clear, actionable insights and recommendations for operations leadership across regions
- Maintain routing parameters and master data within optimization tools to ensure high-quality outputs
- Work across Daniels’ core systems, ensuring alignment between route optimization (Omnitracs / Solera), fleet telematics (Samsara, Geotab), and ERP platforms (RouteOptix, Tegos / Enwis, Business Central)
- Support improvements in data quality, system integration, and visibility across planning and execution layers
- Partner with transportation, site operations, customer service, and planning teams across all Canadian locations to ensure delivery and collection schedules align with customer commitments and operational constraints
