This role is on-site Monday–Friday, typically 9:00am–5:00pm, with occasional after-hours availability for escalations (not frequent, but can happen due to 24/7 operations). Start ASAP in a permanent, full time role.

  • Oversee day-to-day workforce performance across high-volume warehousing functions (pick/pack, forklift, general warehouse operations)
  • Support workforce planning, rostering and coordination to meet operational requirements
  • Partner with key stakeholders to ensure workforce capability, engagement and productivity outcomes are met
  • Use data and reporting to identify trends, drive decisions, and support continuous improvement
  • Manage escalations professionally and maintain stability under pressure in a dynamic environment
 
Skills and experience
  • Strong experience leading teams in warehousing, logistics, distribution, manufacturing or high-volume operations
  • Proven ability to use data to drive decisions (comfortable with KPIs, reporting, performance trends)
  • Confident communicator with strong stakeholder management and customer/service mindset
  • Calm, leadership style with high emotional intelligence and people focus
  • Decisive and outcomes-driven; able to operate effectively in imperfect / changing environments
 
Desirable:
  • Exposure to 24/7 operations and large casual workforces
  • Experience in continuous improvement / operational uplift environments
 
Benefits
  • Permanent role with a well-established on-site team
  • Senior leadership opportunity in a large-scale, fast-paced operation
