GSA Logistics is expanding and we're looking for a proactive Fleet Controller to coordinate our steel and container operations across all Melbourne and wharf cartage, and break bulk. You'll work in a fast-moving environment handling all types of steel, General and oversize cargo.

You'll report to and work closely with the Operations Manager and General Manager.

  • Clear career path with one-on-one training and ongoing development
  • Modern systems and tools; we value smart planning and communication

What you'll do

  • Plan & allocate fleet (company drivers & subcontractors) to maximize utilization across steel and container tasks
  • Book & manage time slots at wharf and container parks; monitor cut-offs, vessel ETAs/ETDs, and receival windows
  • Pre-plan steel movements including load configuration, permits, escorts and site requirements
  • Coordinate break-bulk and OOG jobs (open tops, flatracks) including over-height/over-width approvals and precinct move permits
  • Communicate job details clearly to drivers; confirm site inductions, PPE, load restraint and receiver-specific SOPs
  • Maintain data accuracy in our TMS (jobs, legs, PODs, statuses) and ensure compliance paperwork is captured
  • Problem-solve on the fly—re-sequence loads, recover delays, and keep customers updated proactively
  • Collaborate with warehouse, unpack, and wharf teams to drive on-time performance and safe handling outcomes

What you'll bring

  • Experience in transport operations/fleet control (steel or container wharf cartage highly regarded)
  • Strong planning, prioritization and time management skills
  • Confident communicator who enjoys coordinating people and moving parts
  • Solid computer literacy (TMS and MS Excel). Exposure to Freight Tracker, 1-Stop, Containerchain is a plus
  • Working knowledge of NHVR mass & dimension, load restraint (especially for steel), and depot/terminal processes (nice to have)
  • High attention to detail, with a calm, solutions mindset under pressure
  • Team player who contributes to a positive, safety-first culture
