Ellerslie, New Zealand | req23726

We’re looking for an experienced Transport Operations Manager to join our dynamic team and lead the way in ensuring our transport operations run safely, smoothly and efficiently. This is a vital, hands-on role that will see you making a meaningful difference every day – keeping essential sectors like healthcare, veterinary services, hospitality and more, stocked with the gases they depend on.

What You Will Enjoy Doing

  • Providing transport-specific leadership and guidance across the business
  • Ensuring safety and compliance of all vehicles and drivers, including Dangerous Goods (DG) regulations
  • Managing fleet operations and liaising closely with service agents
  • Driving the implementation of formal strategies and processes to maintain delivery standards
  • Sourcing and monitoring contractors, managing training and upholding strong customer service levels.
  • Working cross-functionally with internal teams – sales, schedulers, operations – to keep everything moving.
  • Managing cost control with budget.
  • Travelling when needed to support business projects, roll out plans and site visits.
  • Leading and contributing to project-based work and business case development

What Makes You Great

  • A transport industry professional with solid truck, fleet and multi-drop management experience
  • Strong knowledge of compliance requirements, including Dangerous Goods (DG) preferably in the LPG or Petroleum industry
  • A natural communicator – confident working with a wide range of stakeholders across the business
  • Excellent organisational skills, capable of balancing strategic oversight with hands-on problem solving
  • A team player who thrives in a fast-moving, people-driven environment
  • Confident with computers, spreadsheets and other tech tools to manager reports, budgets and day-to-day tasks
