At Carma, we’re more than just a car company, we’re on a mission to shake up the Australian automotive industry! As a digital pre-owned car dealership, we’re turning the car buying experience into a hassle-free, seamless journey that customers can truly enjoy. With our diverse and collaborative team managing everything from engineering to marketing and buying to reconditioning in-house, we’re powered by the best people and we’d love for you to come along for the ride.
Our Logistics Senior Lead role isn't about moving cars from A to B—you’ll own the end-to-end performance of vehicle flow across our entire production system. This is a high-impact operational role where you’ll coordinate how vehicles move into and through Carma, managing on site vehicle movements, site transfers and fleet allocation to balance dynamic demand across teams.

You’ll be based at our Granville site where you will lead and empower a newly formed team and truck fleet, tracking movement metrics to set performance baselines with precision, consistency, and speed. From ensuring strict compliance with Chain of Responsibility and WHS standards to applying a sharp continuous improvement mindset, you will eliminate bottlenecks and optimise workflows so every vehicle moves through the Carma system at maximum efficiency.

What you'll be doing?

- Scheduling & movement flow: Act as the operational lead for Logistics—owning the calendar, rostering, and allocation for internal and external fleets across Sydney metro to maximize truck efficiency and hit throughput targets.
- Root cause resolution: Monitor daily operations to spot disruptions early and investigate the underlying operational breaks rather than treating surface-level symptoms.
- Process & continuous improvement: Interpret movement data and operational reports to refine work methods, eliminate waste,



and elevate turnaround performance in line with Carma’s guidelines.
- Fleet, safety & compliance: Maintain high standards across the fleet by enforcing pre-start checks, scheduled maintenance, WHS guidelines, and Chain of Responsibility (CoR) practices.
- High-performance leadership: Lead, roster, and grow the onsite and driver team—managing day-to-day admin, building capability through feedback, and setting explicit expectations for peak performance.
- Cross-departmental alignment: Manage dynamic vehicle demand across Buying, Sales, Wholesale, and Operations, hosting regular standups and team meetings to stay aligned on shifting needs.

Okay, let’s talk about you:

- Proven experience leading teams in a fast-paced production or automotive environment
- Ability to drive performance through people, not just manage tasks
- Strong capability in setting expectations, holding standards, and addressing underperformance
- Experience building team capability to improve output, quality and flow
- Confidence operating on the floor — engaging, directing and supporting teams in real time
- Strong problem-solving skills with a focus on identifying root causes
- Exposure to lean / continuous improvement environments (highly regarded)
- Ability to prioritise and adapt in a high-output, fast-changing environment
- Working knowledge of Chain of Responsibility, fatigue management, mass and load restraint (TLIF0009 or willingness to complete)
- High attention to detail and commitment to quality standards
- Valid NSW Driver’s Licence

What's in it for you?

- We wouldn’t be a car business if we didn’t give you some $$ off our Carma cars, parts and NRMA cover.
- Join our high-performing, forward-thinking team and help shake up car buying in Australia.
- Join a team that values quality as much as quantity — we believe in working hard, having fun and delivering an exceptional product.
