Cargo Terminal Manager

• You must be able to cost cargo operations and be accountable for profitability of this department
• An Australian Defence Force background is desirable but not essential
• Possessing a WADSIC and/or MSIC card is desirable
• You must be flexible for occasional night or weekend operations when required
• You must be able to achieve an Australian Dept of Defence security clearance if required
• A strong focus on safety, security & confidentiality is required
• Clear understanding of DAFF washing and treatment operations
• You must possess sound knowledge in container and flat rack packing procedures
• Teamwork is essential with our road transport team to facilitate efficient and timely cargo operations
