About The Company

Our client is a cornerstone of the Australian macadamia industry, managing every stage of the process — from growing and harvesting to processing and distribution. Based at their state-of-the-art Bundaberg facility, this role supports a critical point in the supply chain: the intake and assessment of harvested macadamia nuts from both company-owned farms and local growers. With a strong reputation for delivering premium quality and maximising grower returns, the business offers an exciting, fast-paced environment and a culture that values people, innovation, and long-term growth.

About The Opportunity

• Coordinating truck movements, delivery scheduling, and intake logistics to maintain workflow efficiency.
• Conducting quality sampling in line with strict protocols to ensure consistency and accuracy.
• Managing the intake process during high-volume periods, including handling multiple truck arrivals and associated paperwork.
• Liaising with internal and external stakeholders including the Area Manager, General Manager, processing team, growers, and transport partners.
• Addressing real-time issues with a practical and solution-focused approach to minimise disruption.

About You

The successful candidate will bring a proactive mindset, logistical awareness, and a team-first attitude. Specifically, you will have:

• Demonstrated experience in logistics coordination, transport scheduling, or intake operations — ideally in agriculture, FMCG, or processing environments.
• Strong attention to detail with a proven ability to follow procedures and identify inconsistencies.
• Calm, clear-headed communication skills under pressure, particularly when coordinating multiple stakeholders.
• A practical, hands-on approach with the ability to anticipate and resolve operational challenges.
• At least two years of experience in a logistics or coordination role, preferably in a rural or agricultural setting.
• A collaborative, dependable work ethic and a desire to contribute to a high-performing team.

What’s In It For You?

• A competitive salary package of $70,000 + super, with flexibility based on experience.
• Immediate start available for the right candidate.
• Off-season flexibility, with the option of extended time off or additional duties across farms or operations.
• A supportive, family-friendly culture where your contribution is valued.
• Real career progression opportunities, with future pathways into admin, mechanical work, or farm management.
• An engaging, hands-on role where no two days are the same — perfect for someone who thrives in a dynamic environment.
