About the Role:

This is a key role within the transport team, responsible for planning and coordinating linehaul movements across the country.

  • At least 3 years' experience in transport or logistics dispatch within New Zealand.
  • Experience managing palletised freight (FMCG or similar).
  • Strong working knowledge of Class 5 truck planning - weight, cube, pallets, tonnage.
  • Great geographical knowledge and understanding of NZ's road transport network.
  • Solid communication, data entry, and organisational skills.
  • Confidence using transport systems and Microsoft Office.
  • A proactive, solution-focused mindset, you enjoy finding better ways to do things.
