Lantrak Management

City of Gold Coast

Keep trucks moving. Keep projects supplied. Keep operations on track.

Lantrak is looking for an organised and confident Allocator to join our Yatala Operations team.

Sitting at the centre of our daily operations, you'll coordinate customer bookings, allocate trucks and contractors across multiple projects and respond to changing requirements throughout the day.

It's a fast-moving role where priorities can change quickly. You'll need to be comfortable making decisions, communicating with drivers and customers, juggling competing requirements and finding solutions when plans change.

About Lantrak

For over 65 years, Lantrak has been a trusted industry leader in materials management, material supply and disposal, truck hire and plant hire solutions.

Operating across Victoria, Queensland, and Recent South Wales, we partner with leading contractors and developers to deliver practical, commercially focused solutions across civil construction, commercial developments and major infrastructure projects.

About the Role

As an Allocator, you’ll play a key role in coordinating the resources required to keep our daily operations running efficiently.

You’ll manage incoming bookings, allocate suitable contractors and equipment, monitor jobs throughout the day and respond quickly when requirements change or additional resources are needed.

You’ll also maintain accurate information within our OMS and work closely with customers, contractors, sales staff and project teams to ensure everyone has the information they need.

Transport allocation experience will be highly regarded, however we’re also open to experienced schedulers, dispatchers and operations coordinators with strong transferable skills.

Key Responsibilities





Handle a high volume of inbound calls professionally and efficiently

Enter and manage job bookings in OMS (Operations Management System) with accuracy

Communicate clearly with customers, sales staff and project teams

Allocate compliant contractors and equipment to scheduled jobs

Build strong working relationships with contractors and support ongoing recruitment

Set up new COD accounts, verify details and process pre-authorisations

Maintain accurate job notes and documentation

Identify unsupplied jobs and proactively work towards solutions

Support Lantrak's Transport Manager with contractor performance monitoring

About you

You’ll be someone who is organised, proactive and able to stay across multiple moving parts at once.

You will ideally have:

Experience in transport, logistics, scheduling, dispatch or a similar operational environment

Strong communication skills and confidence dealing with drivers, contractors and customers

The ability to prioritise and make clear decisions in a fast-moving environment

A calm and practical approach when plans change

Excellent attention to detail and organisational skills

Confidence using systems and learning new processes

Strong problem-solving skills and a willingness to take ownership

The ability to work effectively as part of a busy Operations team

Experience in road transport, civil construction, heavy vehicles or material management would be advantageous, but isn’t essential for the right person.

Why Join Lantrak?

Stable, long-term role with a national industry leader

Supportive team and strong internal processes

Opportunity to grow within the business

If you’re an experienced Allocator or a strong scheduler/coordinator looking to move into transport operations, we’d like to hear from you.
