About The Role

Looking to lead a national transport network that's transforming how we deliver to customers across Australia? This is your chance to shape the future of last mile logistics at scale - where innovation meets impact, and every delivery counts.

At Bunnings, we're building the best...our team makes it happen. As our new National Transport Manager - Last Mile Network, you'll take the reins of a high-performing team and drive the strategy, systems, and service that power our B2B and B2C deliveries across e-commerce, store network and fulfilment locations. If you're ready to lead with purpose, embrace digital tools, and make a real difference - this is the role for you.

What's Involved

  • Lead a national team across multiple sites, creating a culture of performance, learning, and support.
  • Shape and deliver our last mile transport strategy, balancing service excellence with cost efficiency.
  • Embed smart digital platforms to boost visibility, traceability, and customer satisfaction.
  • Optimise delivery methods, partners, and channels to support scalable, flexible solutions.
  • Use data to drive decisions, improve KPIs, and unlock continuous improvement.
  • Collaborate across the business and with external partners to enhance our transport capability.
  • Champion safety, compliance, and operational excellence across all modes of delivery.

Who We're Looking For

You'll bring well rounded leadership experience, where you foster performance and build capability. You'll have a strong background in transport and commercial distribution (ideally a minimum of 10 years), with experience managing both small parcel and large freight deliveries.

You're a strategic thinker and hands-on leader who thrives in fast-paced, complex environments. You bring a commercial mindset, a passion for logistics, and a genuine desire to build something better. You're curious, collaborative, and always up for a challenge.

You'll need

  • Proven experience leading national transport operations and teams, including last mile delivery across B2B and B2C.
  • Strong demonstrated leadership skills and the ability to lead interstate teams
  • A track record of optimising networks, partners, and delivery models for performance and cost.
  • Experience implementing and using digital transport systems (TMS, GPS, ERP, etc.).
  • Sharp analytical skills and the ability to turn data into action.
  • Strong leadership skills with a focus on coaching, mentoring, and team development.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management abilities.
  • A solid understanding of transport regulations and safety standards.
  • Tertiary qualifications in Logistics, Supply Chain, Business or similar (preferred).

You'll be part of a workplace where you'll feel like you belong.
