Geelong, Victoria, Australia McColl's Transport Full time

At McColl's Transport, we are seeking a talented and ambitious individual to join our Graduate Program. This 2-year program is designed to provide graduates with the skills and knowledge necessary to succeed in a fast-paced transportation logistics environment.

About Us

McColl's Transport was founded in 1952 as a family-owned business, operating a single vehicle transporting milk around Geelong, Victoria. Today, we operate over 600 tankers, serving the bulk dairy, food, and consumer and industrial chemicals industries.

Program Overview

The Graduate Program offers a comprehensive post-university experience, providing graduates with foundational skills and exposure to the day-to-day operations of our business. The structured rotations will allow graduates to learn about different parts of our organization, designing, recommending, and implementing improvement projects.

Operational Divisions – Rotations

As part of our program, graduates will rotate through each of our four operating units:

  • Fleet, which manages vehicles and equipment;
  • Farm Pickup, which manages the specialized task of milk collection from dairy farms;
  • Bulk Food, which transports ingredients for our industrial food customers; and
  • Bulk Chemicals, which services our customers in manufacturing industries.

Each graduate will have an experienced mentor in their current division to guide their learning and experience. Part of the rotation will include on-the-ground work experience in the division, spending time with drivers, customers, mechanics, or suppliers.

Strategy and Analytics

The second dimension of the program is with the Strategy and Analytics team.

This part of the graduates' journey concentrates on learning and practicing more general business skills:

  • Office and professional etiquette/norms;
  • Excel, PowerPoint, and report writing skills;
  • Process mapping;
  • Data preparation and analysis;
  • Data handling tools;
  • Presentation skills;
  • Career planning;
  • Client entertainment;
  • Introduction to project management;
  • Ad-hoc project work for other support divisions (HR, Safety, Finance, IT etc.).

This element of the program helps graduates to be confident in professional environments, interacting with a wide group of people around the organization. It also helps graduates to learn to process unstructured information, draw meaning from it, and present their findings in a structured, persuasive way.

What We're Looking For

We start by matching prospective recruits up to our McColl's values:

  • Safety first;
  • Honesty and integrity;
  • Mutual respect;
  • Consistency;
  • Commercial responsibility.

We are looking for smart and resourceful future leaders who possess the following qualities:

  • Intelligence and perception;
  • Energetic, outgoing, and action-oriented;
  • Capable with technology;
  • Passionate about transport and logistics or agriculture;
  • Confident, determined, independent, and resourceful;
  • Empathetic and relate well with people from different walks of life.

We especially like candidates who have lived in regional areas and who have interesting work experiences to share.

Salary and Benefits

The estimated annual salary for this position is $60,000-$80,000, depending on location and qualifications. In addition to a competitive salary, employees receive a range of benefits, including health insurance, superannuation, and access to professional development opportunities.

Please note that the salary range is an estimate based on industry standards and may vary depending on individual circumstances.
