Job Description
About the Business
We're partnering with a large, complex national organisation with a multi‐billion‐dollar footprint and a strong mandate for transformation.
With a transport network that touches every part of the country, this business is investing heavily in long‐term infrastructure and capability uplift; and this role is a key part of that journey.
With a greenfield program now underway, this is a rare opportunity to lead an enterprise‐wide Transport Management System (TMS) implementation from the ground up.
The Opportunity
As TMS Program Manager, you will lead the delivery of a national, multi‐year TMS rollout — with the system already selected and moving into implementation.
This is a complex, high‐impact role where success will hinge on your ability to align multiple stakeholder groups across the program — from operations and internal technology teams through to systems integrators and the vendor.
Critically, you'll bring a deep understanding of complex transport networks (first, middle and last mile), allowing you to translate operational reality into practical system outcomes.
You'll sit at the centre of the program, driving execution, removing roadblocks and ensuring all parties are working toward a common outcome.
This is a hands‐on, solution‐focused role requiring strong engagement, collaboration and delivery discipline.
What You'll Be Doing
Lead the end‐to‐end implementation of a selected TMS across a national, multi‐site transport network
Act as the central point of alignment between operations, IT, systems integrator and vendor
Translate complex transport network requirements into scalable system solutions
Drive program delivery across timelines,



budget, risk and change management
Partner with the SI and vendor to ensure successful configuration, integration and deployment
Manage stakeholder expectations across multiple functions and levels
Track and deliver against key metrics including DIFOT, service, safety and cost
Embed new processes, systems and ways of working across the network
What You'll Bring
Proven experience delivering TMS implementations in complex network environments
Deep understanding of large‐scale transport networks (first, middle and last mile)
Strong track record working with systems integrators and technology vendors
Exceptional stakeholder alignment capability across operations and technology
A pragmatic, solution‐focused mindset with the ability to navigate complexity
Hands‐on program delivery experience across governance, risk and execution
Highly Regarded
Experience within high‐volume logistics, retail or FMCG environments
Exposure to complex, multi‐site or unionised operations
Background in greenfield or large‐scale transformation programs
Strong understanding of end‐to‐end transport networks
Why Consider This?
This is a rare opportunity to play a leading role in a business‐critical transformation, with solid executive backing and long‐term investment.
You'll step into a visible, high‐impact role where you can shape how a national transport network operates into the future — working with a business that values collaboration, ownership and forward‐thinking leadership.
