What is a tote controller????

Hi.
In my re-search of the CALLISTER side of the family tree I have in the 1851 census
60 Strand Lane
James Callister Head age 32 Baker Peel
Mary A Callister age 32 Castletown
David age 9
Mary age 5
James age 7
Thomas
Thomas Cubbon age 59 tote? Controller Castletown

All this fits in with my family tree James Callisters wife was Mary Ann Cubbon
(I am in possesion of the marriage certificate) and Thomas Cubbon was her father widowed in 1851.
So my question is simply what is a "tote controller" from the census record it was difficult to make out the word "tote" but the second word is definitely controller
