Fletcher Building

Are you ready to take charge of our brand-new Eagle Farm Distribution Centre?

We’re searching for an experienced leader to manage our state-of-the-art facility, which opened in mid-July 2024. This is your opportunity to make a real difference, fostering innovation and building a high-performing team culture in a forward-thinking environment.

What you'll be responsible for:

In this role, you’ll ensure smooth and efficient daily operations, managing logistics and overseeing the entire distribution process. Safety will be one of your top priorities, as you’ll promote a strong safety-first culture and ensure compliance with all necessary regulations. You'll monitor performance metrics and implement strategies for continuous improvement, using data to identify areas for enhancement and driving operational excellence.

Team leadership will be central to your success, as you'll be responsible for coaching, mentoring, and developing your team, from entry-level staff to managers. You'll also oversee inventory management processes, ensuring stock accuracy and minimising losses, while continually looking for opportunities to streamline operations and improve efficiency.

Collaboration will be key, as you’ll work closely with other departments such as sales and procurement to ensure a seamless supply chain, and you’ll be prepared to handle crises and operational disruptions by developing and implementing risk management strategies.

What we’re looking for:

• Proven experience managing large-scale distribution centres, ideally 5+ years. Experience within the building materials industry is a bonus but not essential.
• Strong leadership skills with the ability to inspire and develop a high-performing team.
• Knowledge of inventory management and business planning systems.
• Ability to collaborate with stakeholders and build strong relationships.
• Ability to drive team towards a customer centric culture and sustainable DIFOT performance
• Proficiency in systems like Excel, Word, and warehouse management tools.
