Shift Manager

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 Lineage continues our exciting transformation and growth journey across the region, we are looking for a PM Shift Manager to take the lead at our high-volume, multi-temperature Laverton facility.

This is not just a shift supervisory role. A Shift Manager at Lineage is a senior operational leader — a trusted decision-maker who sets the tone for the entire shift and is a visible safety champion on the floor.

You will play a pivotal role in creating an environment where people feel supported, know what success looks like and are empowered to perform at their best.

About the Role

As Shift Manager, you will own the operational outcomes of your shift — leading warehouse and transport activities across Inbound, Production and Outbound. You will coach and guide your team with clarity and consistency, driving a culture where safety is instinctive, performance is expected and accountability is shared.

Your focus will be on:

• Delivering safe, efficient and compliant operations

• Coaching and developing engaged, high-performing team members

• Creating structure and clarity to enable your team to succeed

• Continuously improving processes, costs and service outcomes

You will be a key influencer on site, partnering closely with stakeholders across Operations, Safety, HR, Transport, Engineering and Finance.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead daily warehouse operations and coordinate activities to execute the site plan

• Be a visible safety leader — embedding our Zero Harm mindset and ensuring compliance with CoR, FSANZ, HACCP and food safety requirements

• Deliver customer outcomes through accurate, on-time and in-full performance

• Manage labour, inventory integrity, MHE performance and service-level KPIs

• Build capability through coaching, 1:1s, feedback, and succession planning

• Monitor cost performance and contribute to continuous improvement initiatives

• Provide timely reporting and insights to support operational decision-making

About You

You are a people-first leader who thrives in a fast-paced environment and leads with clarity, fairness and consistency. You understand that the best results come from a culture built on trust, accountability and respect.

You will bring:

• Experience in logistics/transport operations (retail/FMCG advantageous)

• Operational expertise in multi-temperature environments

• Strong commercial acumen — comfortable managing KPIs, cost levers and labour plans

• Confidence in coaching and performance leadership

• Excellent communication and stakeholder influence

• Knowledge of compliance, safety and regulatory standards

• WMS/TMS experience and proficiency with Microsoft Office

What You'll Deliver

• A safe and engaged team environment with zero harm as the standard

• A shift that performs with discipline, care and accountability

• Operational excellence across storage, pick/pack and transport

• Reduced operating costs through effective planning and improvement

• High customer satisfaction through proactive communication and ownership

This is your opportunity to shape performance within one of the most critical facilities in our Australian network and play an influential role in our ongoing transformation.
