Warehouse Supervisor – Tasmania

Stirlings Performance Steels | Derwent Park | Full-time - Permanent

The Opportunity

We're seeking a full-time Warehouse Supervisor to lead our operations team in Tasmania. Reporting to the Warehouse Manager – Tasmania, you'll supervise and coordinate day-to-day despatch, receivals, storage, quality and logistics — leading by example on the floor to keep the team productive, accurate and secure, and stepping up to run operations in the Warehouse Manager's absence. It's a hands-on leadership role, so it suits someone who enjoys working alongside their team, coaching others and keeping customers' orders moving.

What We're Looking For

You'll bring robust warehousing and logistics skills, a solid knowledge of warehouse procedures and systems, and the confidence to prioritise and lead a team in a fast-moving environment. Supervisory experience in a warehouse, distribution or logistics setting will help you hit the ground running, along with intermediate OH&S; and people-supervision skills, strong IT skills and a professional approach to customer service. Knowledge of stainless steel products and of racking and storage systems will be well regarded, and flexibility with working hours is important. A current Forklift Licence (LF) is essential; LO (Order Picker) and Overhead Gantry licences are highly regarded. The right attitude and willingness to learn matter just as much to us as a perfect CV.

We won't compromise on accuracy, safety, or accountability. We're after a supervisor who takes ownership of the outcome — allocating tasks, checking the work is done right and following up when it isn't — rather than someone who simply passes instructions on. You'll work closely with our Tasmania Warehouse, Customer Service, Sales, Quality and Logistics teams,



so clear communication and a collaborative approach are essential.
