Leading Hand

A real endeavour, achieved with you

As Australia's multi-disciplinary advisory and business partner of choice for clients in defence, government and infrastructure, we deliver complex things that matter. It's not always an easy task, but anything worthwhile seldom is. Great things are rarely accomplished alone. We're building something remarkable. Now we just need you.

A real endeavour, shaped by you

As a Leading Hand you will be responsible for leading and coordinating all inbound warehouse activities, supporting the movements of assets and inventory to facilitate disposal activities for Disposal Services.

A typical day may include the following:

• Order Fulfillment - guide and supervise the team in picking, packing and dispatching orders ensuring all SAP/ERP generated requests are handled accurately.
• Inventory Management - oversee and support staff in receipting goods, and ensuring data entry is correct
• Warehouse Operations – ensuring all equipment are operated safely and in compliance with company policies

A real endeavour, driven by you

Our work is highly confidential, so there are some things you ideally should have for this role:

• A current baseline security clearance or higher preferred.
• Experience in similar role, with demonstrated warehousing and freight receipt/dispatching experience, including SAP/ERP experience.
• Experience in leading warehouse teams
• A current forklift licence.

More than anything, you'll have a strong work ethic, a positive attitude, a team player and a focus on safety (Zero Harm).
