Job no: 762966
Work type: Full time
Location: Altona - VIC - Australia, Laverton - VIC - Australia, Laverton North - VIC - Australia
Applications close: 30 Aug 2026 2:30 PM AUS Eastern Standard Time

Here at Linfox we believe together, anything is possible. Use sophisticated technology to deliver everyday essentials and natural resources for Australia’s biggest companies. Work with major customers in retail, healthcare, government and defence. Shape the future of logistics with industry leading innovations in safety, sustainability and efficiency. Create a career to be proud of. Expect all this and more when you join us at Linfox.

About the Role

Based in Laverton North, you'll join our Bulk Fuels team and play a critical role in managing daily operational execution across a 24/7 national network.

This isn't a role where you simply follow a schedule. It's a role where you actively manage one. You'll monitor live activity throughout the shift, work closely with drivers, customers, and operational stakeholders, respond to changing conditions, and keep freight moving safely and on time.

Your ability to prioritise competing demands, communicate effectively, and make sound operational decisions under pressure will be key to your success.

What You'll Be Doing

• Coordinating daily delivery activities across a live transport network
  
• Monitoring shift activity and responding to delays, breakdowns, and unplanned events
  
• Working closely with drivers, operational teams, and customers to maintain service levels
  
• Managing schedule changes and reallocating resources when priorities shift
  
• Ensuring compliance with safety, fatigue, and DG requirements
  
• Producing shift handover reports and maintaining accurate operational records
• Identifying opportunities to improve workflow, communication, and service performance

Roster & work environment – what you need to know

This role operates on a permanent Night shift, Tuesday to Friday, 6:00pm – 4:00am.

This structure allows for strong coverage across the national operation. However, it also means this role will suit someone who is:

• Comfortable working longer shifts during Nights
• Resilient in a high-demand, always-on operational environment

What are we looking for?

We're interested in people who have operated in environments where things move quickly and decisions matter. While experience in transport and logistics is valuable, we also recognise that many of these capabilities are developed in other fast-paced industries.

We can teach the technical aspects of the role. What's harder to teach is composure under pressure, customer focus, adaptability, and the determination to find solutions when things don't go to plan. You will bring:

• Confidence working night shifts
  
• Strong computer literacy and comfort working across multiple systems
• Experience working in a fast-paced environment where priorities regularly change
  
• Excellent customer service and stakeholder management skills
  
• Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to prioritise in real time
• Resilience under pressure
  
• A positive attitude and willingness to learn

Why Linfox?

Linfox is one of the largest logistics businesses in Australia and New Zealand, trusted by some of the country's biggest organisations to keep critical supply chains moving.

But what makes this opportunity different is the exposure.

You'll be part of a highly visible operation where your decisions directly influence service performance, customer outcomes, and operational success. You'll work alongside experienced leaders, learn a specialised industry, and develop skills that can open doors across one of Australasia's most respected supply chain organisations.

We're not simply looking for transport experience.

We're looking for people with the right attitude, strong operational thinking, customer focus, and the ability to thrive in a dynamic environment where no two shifts are the same.

If you enjoy solving problems, working with people, and making decisions that matter, we'd love to hear from you.

At Linfox, we focus on providing an inclusive and diverse workplace where our people can perform at their best. We welcome and encourage applications from people of all backgrounds, identities and perspectives; with people of diverse genders, ages, religions, abilities, sexual orientations and cultures (including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples) encouraged to apply.
