About the Company

At Cirql, we don't focus on industry specifics - our core specialisation is partnering with middle-market organisations that are experiencing change. This client is the perfect example of that - an established and high-growth industrial services company proactively structuring its corporate systems, processes, and capability for the next wave of expansion.

Cirql is proud to represent a premier Australian provider of tech-enabled logistics, supply chain management, and freight solutions. Operating out of their Moorabbin headquarters, this business leverages proprietary innovation, complex carrier networks, and multi-modal logistics capabilities to streamline supply chains for a large, national client portfolio.

Backed by a leading Private Equity firm, the organization is scaling rapidly through both organic expansion and targeted growth initiatives. The pace in this environment is real. It is a lean, highly agile setup where commercial choices are backed by data, decisions are implemented with urgency, and leaders are given true autonomy to drive measurable value.
