About Bulkhaul:

Bulkhaul Limited is a global leader in the transportation of bulk liquids, dry bulk and gases. Established in 1981, we pride ourselves on providing reliable, efficient, and safe logistics solutions to our customers worldwide. Our Middlesbrough headquarters is a dynamic and fast-paced environment where dedication and teamwork drive our success.

Our reputation as a trusted logistics partner is built on the quality of our Operations procedures and personnel, with key support from in-house IT development.

About the role:

The IT Dept comprises a small but dedicated team able to apply themselves to a broad range of technologies. The business is supported with some off-the-shelf packages, but its competitive advantage comes from in-house developments such as the ERP system and EDI connectivity.
