Hill McGlynn is partnering with an established, fast-growing national last-mile distribution business to appoint an Operations Manager for its Wetherill Park operation. This is a high-volume, temperature-controlled pick-pack operation running to tight same-day despatch windows.
It is quick, it is hands-on, and it needs a strong warehouse operator to take ownership and lift it. A excellent opportunity for a leader who wants to run a busy site their own way and grow with a business that is still expanding nationally.

The role
Full operational ownership of a fast-paced pick-pack and last-mile fulfilment operation
Lead high-volume carton and unit picking across chilled and ambient stock (this is a pick-pack site, not pallet in, pallet out)
Manage and develop supervisors and a large warehouse team across extended operating hours
Own service performance against tight despatch cut-offs and customer KPIs
Drive labour planning, cost control and site metrics including DIFOT, pick accuracy and safety
Embed structure and process, and keep improving the operation as volumes grow
Work closely with transport and customers to hold service levels high

About you




Proven operations management experience in 3PL, FMCG distribution or high-volume fulfilment
Strong background in carton and unit pick-pack, e-commerce or last-mile fulfilment, rather than purely pallet-based warehousing
A track record of lifting and scaling operations and teams, not just maintaining them
Strong people leadership. You develop supervisors, lift a team through change and hold standards under pressure
Commercially sharp on labour, cost and service metrics
Hands-on when it counts. This is a quick site that needs a leader on the floor, not behind a desk
Fresh, chilled or temperature-controlled experience well regarded
Available at short notice is a real advantage

What's on offer
$120,000 - 140,000 + super
An established, founder-led national business with more contracts coming and genuine career runway
A tech-forward operation that backs its people and invests in the site
The chance to take ownership of a busy site and grow with the company
