Afternoon Shift Supervisor| Transport Operations | Fleet Scheduling

About the Role
Our client is seeking a Afternoon Shift Supervisor to run the PM shift on-site in Lidcombe.

This role sits within a temperature-controlled FMCG operation, managing the movement of chilled freight across a network of distribution centres and stores.
Unlike a typical allocator role, this shift is focused on planning and preparation.

You will spend most of your time setting up the next day’s operation so the AM team can execute a clean, structured run.

Key Responsibilities

• Allocations and real-time tracking of fleet
• Following day planning
• Monitoring loads up to 40-60 per day
• Rostering up to 30 drivers 
• Timeslot requests and confirmations
• Customer relations
• FMCG / TC Transport experience preferred.

Shift Details 

• Hours: 4pm - 2am
• Days: Monday to Friday

About You
You are organised, practical, and comfortable making decisions in a busy operational environment. You understand the importance of accuracy, communication, and keeping schedules on track.

What You’ll Need

• Experience in transport planning, allocation, or scheduling
• Exposure to FMCG or time-sensitive freight preferred
• Strong planning and organisation skills
• close attention to detail, especially with data and job accuracy
• Confident communicator with drivers and customers
• Good systems and Excel capability

Why This Role

• Structured PM shift with a clear focus on planning, not firefighting
• Smaller fleet, more control over your workload
• Stable Monday to Friday hours
• Key role in setting the operation up for success each day
