Interesting Industry Fact: One big US composite decking maker says a single 4.9 metre board contains about 2,250 recycled plastic bags.
Now picture a brand new warehouse in Richlands, stacked high with decking, fencing and screening, some of it six metres long. Every board needs to be received, counted, picked, packed and sent out on time.
So who's counting? Hopefully you.
I'm Allan from Itch. I'm looking for a Warehouse Supervisor to run a brand new facility for a growing national supplier of decking, fencing and screening products.
Tradies and builders depend on this warehouse. When an order goes out right, a deck gets built on time. When it doesn't, someone's standing on a slab wondering where their boards are.
Why this one's worth a look
- $110K + super, plus a phone and laptop
- Monday to Friday, 7am to 3pm. No night shifts and no weekend rosters. Your afternoons are your own
- A recent facility with room to grow. You get to set the standard rather than inherit someone else's habits
- A team of four experienced storepeople, so you're leading a crew that already knows its stuff
- Clear KPIs, real accountability and a genuine pathway into senior warehouse or operations roles, plus process improvement and safety projects along the way
What you'll be running
You'll report to the General Manager, Operations. The job is to make sure containers are receipted on time with nothing missing, and every order is picked, packed and dispatched right the first time.
You'll lead stocktakes that balance down to the last board, and you'll own safety, aiming for zero incidents and audits you're happy to be in the room for. You'll coach your team so they do well and want to stay.
You'll also work with Logistics, Procurement and Operations to fix problems before they become someone else's headache. And when you spot a better way of doing something, you'll get to put it in place.
This is you if...
- A perfect stocktake gives you a quiet thrill you'd never admit out loud
- You can spot a mislabelled bay from across the floor
- You hold a standard without losing the team
- You'd rather fix the process than fix the same problem twice
- You're not on the fence about safety. You don't just tick boxes
What you'll need
- Australian citizenship or permanent residency
- A current forklift licence (HRW LF) and an open driver licence
- Solid experience in warehouse, logistics or supply chain (around 3 to 5 years), including leading a team
- Strong knowledge of inventory control and dispatch, and you're comfortable with warehouse management systems and reporting
- Hands-on experience managing safety, incidents and hazards
Experience with timber, building products or long, awkward product is a big plus.
Fun local fact: Richlands started out as dairy, poultry, honey and table grape farms. Now it's home to the likes of Coca-Cola, Linfox and Target. Room for one more?
