Your new company

Our client is a well-regarded transport and logistics enterprise specialising in road haulage, warehousing and full-supply-chain solutions. Operating across general freight, refrigerated goods and heavy-haulage sectors, the business supports local, interstate and export movements and partners with a diverse range of industries including food, agribusiness, industrial equipment and containerised cargo. Their vision is to set the benchmark in service excellence through innovation, purpose-built equipment and continual investment in people and technology. With a culture that values collaboration, integrity and safety, they foster a workplace where employees are encouraged to learn, contribute ideas and grow with the business as it pursues long-term expansion and stronger market leadership.

Your new role

This night shift position offers the opportunity to join a leading logistics team that plays an essential role in supporting the company's overnight transport operations. The successful candidate will primarily operate an HR truck, completing multiple scheduled pick-ups and drop-offs across metropolitan and regional routes, with occasional HC driving requirements. This role is hands-on, requiring the safe handling and loading of freight items weighing up to 50-60kg, so physical fitness and attention to safety are essential. Working within a supportive, close-knit team, this position contributes directly to maintaining the company's reputation for dependable, high-quality service and timely deliveries. It's ideal for someone who enjoys working independently at night, values consistency and reliability, and takes pride in representing a well-established transport organisation committed to operational excellence and employee wellbeing.

What you’ll need to succeed

  • Current HR licence with HC licence required for occasional regional runs
  • Proven experience operating heavy rigid vehicles safely and efficiently
  • Ability to safely handle and move freight items weighing up to 50-60kg
  • Strong focus on safety procedures and adherence to transport compliance standards
  • Reliable, punctual, and capable of working independently during night shifts
  • Physically fit and comfortable with repetitive lifting and manual handling tasks
  • Excellent attention to detail and load security awareness
  • Positive attitude with a commitment to teamwork and professionalism
  • Sound knowledge of local and regional routes
  • Strong communication skills and a proactive approach to problem-solving

What you’ll get in return

  • $42 per hour plus penalties and superannuation
  • Consistent 8-10 hour night shifts offering stable full-time hours
  • Opportunity to join a respected, safety-focused transport company
  • Supportive team culture with strong emphasis on wellbeing and reliability
  • Well-maintained modern fleet and consistent scheduled routes
  • Ongoing training and professional development opportunities
  • Long-term employment stability with room to progress within the company
  • Independence and flexibility working in a trusted night operations team
