You'll inherit a solid operation but you'll be empowered to take it to the next level.

If you thrive on improving performance, leading people, optimising fleets, driving customer outcomes and building best-practice operational frameworks, this could be the career-defining role you've been waiting for.

- Continuous improvement initiatives
- Operational reporting and commercial performance

You'll also lead a team of experienced operational leaders while providing strategic direction across a broader workforce of drivers, supervisors and operational personnel.

- Developing and executing logistics strategies that improve productivity and reduce costs
- Driving fleet utilisation and operational efficiency
- Leading transport, scheduling and operational performance across multiple business units




- Creating industry-leading customer service standards
- Building KPI dashboards and using data to drive smarter decisions
- Leading operational transformation projects
- Standardising national operating procedures

You’ll coach and develop experienced operational leaders, foster accountability and create a culture where safety, customer service and continuous improvement become the standard-not the exception.
