Yard Manager — Marsden Park

Every hire business is judged on one thing: did the right gear turn up, on time, in good condition.

About Legend Hire

We hire equipment and temporary works — traffic management, shoring and propping — to civil and construction contractors across NSW. We are growing quickly, we are owner-led, and we are not a big slow corporate. There is nobody between a good idea and it happening.

About the role

This is a step up from a yard operator position. You are on the tools and in the yard every day, but you are also the one setting the standard, planning the run, and making sure nothing leaves the gate that should not.

What you will actually do

- Run the day to day operation of the Marsden Park yard — layout, flow, presentation, discipline

- Plan the pick, prep and load so gear is ready before the truck arrives, not after

- Own the final quality check. Nothing goes to a customer dirty, damaged or incomplete

- Operate the forklift daily and lead by example on manual handling and safe work

- Keep equipment locations and movements accurate in Syrinx. If the system is wrong, the yard is wrong

- Coordinate with the hire desk, drivers, install crews and the workshop so everyone is working off the same plan

- Report damage and defects fast, and chase them through to fixed

- Set and hold the standard for the yard team — pre-starts, PPE, housekeeping, no shortcuts

- Jump in a truck or on a job when the day demands it

What we are looking for

The technical side is teachable. Character is not. We are looking for someone who is:

- Humble — team over self, no ego, shares the credit and owns the mistake

- Hungry — hard working, self-starting, does not need to be pushed

- Smart — reads people and situations well, communicates clearly,



uses good judgement

- Coachable — takes feedback and acts on it. This one matters more than experience

- Dependable, steady and consistent. You do what you said you would, every day

On top of that:

- Current forklift licence (HRWL) — essential

- Experience in equipment hire or rental is ideal. Experience with shoring is better again

- Solid written and verbal communication. You will be reading dockets, writing reports and briefing people

- Comfortable with technology — hire software, tablets, phones. You do not need to be an expert, you do need to be willing

- You genuinely care about safety and expect the same from everyone around you

- You live within about 30 minutes of Marsden Park

- You are prepared to start early and stay back late when the work requires it

This role is probably not for you if

- You would rather be told what to do than decide what needs doing

- You have all the answers already

What we offer

- Base + super, depending on experience

- Full time, permanent, with a business that is growing — this seat leads somewhere

- Onboarding we take seriously and a documented playbook for your role

- A weekly one-on-one with your manager, clear KPIs and honest feedback. You will always know where you stand

- Owner-led business. Decisions get made in the room

Our values

Results Driven · WOW Customers with Service · Hungry for Growth · Keep it Simple · We Care

We hire to these and we manage to these. If they do not sound like you, this will not be a valuable fit for either of us.
