- Handle customer or driver issues as the first point of contact, escalating concerns as needed and ensuring efficient service delivery[4].
- Monitor driver attendance and communicate with drivers regarding anomalies, acting in line with company HR policies[2].
- Prepare weekly reports and assist in delivering key performance indicators (KPIs) to meet contractual and organizational requirements[2].
