With us, your possibilities are not limited to a single opportunity. 

We’re delivering to more than 3,000 retail stores every day (stores like Woolworths, BIG W, Dan Murphy’s, and BWS), but at Primary Connect, we’re more than just a supply chain business. We’re a big team, but every individual plays a pivotal role and leaves a distinctive impact. 

Our extensive reach opens up boundless opportunities for learning, growth, and professional development. By raising your hand, fostering relationships, and seizing the moment, you can take control of your own unique path. 

What you’ll do

As Team Planner, you will provide efficient, accurate and timely scheduling for the Melbourne South RDC at Dandenong South and Melbourne NDC team at Mulgrave, focusing on effectively planning the workforce. 

Work in collaboration with the Operations Manager to plan and transition from current performance to budgeted metrics and support further customer improvement initiatives to improve operational performance. There is a focus on reducing administrative tasks for the team while ensuring data in the planning system is correct to provide operations with the most accurate and efficient labour plan to meet the needs of our customers. This role ultimately exists to create the labour plan in compliance with our policies, procedures, budgets and legislation, also communicating to the workforce their roster. You will be responsible for:

  • Calculate and optimise labour planning requirements based on volume forecasts and current work standards at least seven days in advance
  • Implement the weekly labour plan by scheduling permanent employees and casual agency labour based on forecast volumes and work rates
  • Setup new users into the system, support with onboarding new team and maintain appropriate access for all current users
  • Adjust and modify weekly labour plans based on variances in volume forecast and absenteeism
  • Identify skill shortages and create new long-term labour plans based on turnover & forecasts to support recruitment timelines
  • Prepare, present and adjust data for weekly planning meetings with site stakeholders and labour agencies

What you’ll bring

The role of the Team Planner is pivotal to the success and optimisation of the DC. To succeed in the role, you will need to have:

  • Experience in a complex logistics or scheduling/planning environment
  • Exceptional customer service skills, analytical and problem-solving skills
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
  • Ability to prioritise work and work autonomously
  • Proven experience in managing a workforce, including building capability and communication with workers
  • Advanced computer literacy, particularly in Excel/Google Sheets

What you’ll experience

Everything we do is driven by a culture of care for our team, customers, and community. 

  • We create a thriving team experience through a culture of belonging that champions safety and wellbeing for our people and partners.
  • We’re a team-first organisation. We’ll equip you with the necessary training for success in your role, and provide continuous career development and learning opportunities. 
  • We offer competitive remuneration and access to a number of employee benefits.
  • We prioritise sustainability, striving to contribute to a greener, better future. Check out our most recent Sustainability Report to find out how we do it.
  • A range of programs to help you prioritise and manage your wellbeing, including a competitive leave policy and 24/7 access to the Sonder app.
