Job Description
Completed a ten week summer internship, working as a member of a planning controlled dispatch team. My duties involved detailed analysis of the exact location of all delivery and collection stops, including time committed packages and fixed collection for the purpose of developing the most efficient and cost effective route structure for the package operation. Created load charts to allow the package cars to be loaded in stop order and a dispatch planning document to allow the accurate dispatch of all vehicles.
