Lineage is the world's largest temperature-controlled industrial REIT and logistics solutions provider, with a global network of over 400 facilities, spanning 25 countries across North & South America, Europe and Asia-Pacific.

Working a Lineage is not just a job - it's an opportunity to innovate and put your mark on how food moves from the farm to dinner tables around the world. As a member of the Lineage team, you are a critical link in the food supply chain.

The Asia-Pacific region currently includes Australia, New Zealand, Vietnam, Sri Lanka and Singapore employing nearly 3000 team members.

As we continue our transformation and growth journey in the region, we are now looking to appoint an Operations Manager to join the team at our Laverton facility in Melbourne.

This is an exciting, fast-paced retail services environment where you will report to and partner with the site General Manager in ensuring the operation is consistently safe, compliant, profitable, and cost-efficient.

Importantly, this facility supports a 24/7 retail operation for an iconic Australian business and your role will be critical to ensuring the highest levels of customer satisfaction and service are being delivered.

The Role

A typical week in this role would involve collaborating with your peers and leaders in your team to ensure a robust plan is in place to deliver the daily plan to our customer. This will be achieved by making sure you have the right level of resources and equipment across the forthcoming days and weeks of the operation.

You will also spend time using your focus on Continuous Improvement to support efficiency and improve productivity, all the while ensuring that safety comes first in everything we do.

Working closely with your frontline leaders, you will consistently ensure our team members are recognised for their great work and that together, we are developing a strong, values-based and engaged culture.

You will also closely monitor and actively manage costs to reduce waste and maximise value against contract requirements.

Determining hourly/daily/weekly labour and equipment requirements aligned to shift, workload and safety obligations will also form an important part of your role.

About You

We’re looking for a proven people leader who values safety and is customer obsessed. Ideally, you will also be very familiar with a similar retail/distribution operating framework and understand some of the key challenges and opportunities associated with this model.

Qualification in Logistics Management or relevant business discipline would also be beneficial, combined with a solid understanding of profit and loss and other KPIs that help contain storage, handling and distribution costs.

In return, we’ll continue to support your ongoing development and growth as a leader in our business as well as your aspirations in the longer-term.

Lineage is on a journey to build a culture of trust and respect which enable our teams to be their best, continually improve and go home safe every day. This is your chance to be part of something truly transformative.

Our Purpose: Transform the food supply-chain to eliminate waste and help feed the world.
Our Vision: To be the world's most dynamic temperature-controlled logistics company.
Our Values: Safe, Trust, Respect, Innovation, Bold & Servant Leadership.
