About you

As a progressive leader and a forward-thinking strategist, you approach challenging situations with optimism and curiosity. You enjoy working for the benefit of the Victorian people and bring energy and commitment to our shared passion and vision of driving Health, Safety and Value in everything we do.

You are an authentic and energetic leader with a contemporary logistics skill set and a proven track-record managing complex supply chain activities at scale with an adept ability to enhance efficiency, consistency and reliability in a multi-divisional, customer centric and decentralised organisation. Proven experience leading a logistics function within FMCG or Retail, including Warehousing, Distribution, Transport, utilising modern systems and leading large teams through significant change is key. Although not a pre-requisite, knowledge and experience in health sector related supply chain and logistics, will also be highly regarded and help you to capitalise on opportunities.

Operating as a trusted advisor, it is imperative you possess high level business acumen,



integrity and proven interpersonal and communication skills, as your approach to establishing and strengthening relationships as well as your ability to make influence change will prove pivotal to your success in the role. You are comfortable working in a fast-paced environment and acting on multi-dimensional and complex issues. You enjoy being hands-on and are decisive yet diplomatic, with a unique ability to build consensus and deliver exceptional customer service, engaging purposefully whilst fostering a sense of shared purpose among your team and stakeholders.

With a safety-first mindset, you will enjoy providing high-quality, objective advice, making value-added recommendations and continuously improving internal methodologies to incorporate best practice and ensure HSV services are supported appropriately by technology rather than as stand-alone solutions. Alongside the continued improvement and evolution of systems, timely performance reviews and reporting as well as development of risk mitigation strategies are also important. Moreover, ensuring governance and compliance with legislative and statutory obligations and ensuring process integrity measures are in place are essential elements of the role as is ongoing education, closing capability gaps and further enhancing organisational functionality.

Calm under pressure and possessing an analytical mindset, you thrive in dynamic operational environments and are skilled at negotiating and anticipating future organisational needs, using your subject matter expertise and credibility to prioritise effectively and solve issues proactively with internal and external stakeholders alike and ahead of time.
