Who are we:

K&S Corporation is an ASX-listed company and dominant multi-modal transport and logistics provider in Australia and New Zealand. Our comprehensive offerings across road, rail, and sea transport, alongside fuel distribution and specialised logistics subsidiaries, position us a critical player in national and trans-Tasman supply chains, serving a wide range of sectors from mining and agriculture to retail and industrial clients. With a proud 80-year history our brand is known for innovation, customer focus, continuous improvement, and industry leading safety. K&S Freighters maintains one of Australia's largest company-owned fleet, employing over 1600 personnel and headquartered in Truganina, Victoria.

About K&S Energy

As a specialist national energy carrier, K&S Energy provides remote, regional and metro bulk fuel, oil and gas transportation and distribution throughout Australia, utilising a modern fleet and cutting-edge technologies.

Why This Role:

Reporting to the Divisional Manager, you’ll lead a complex, fast-paced operation where every decision matters. From ensuring safe fuel deliveries and legislative compliance to developing people, improving performance and identifying opportunities for future growth.

If you thrive on accountability, enjoy solving operational challenges and want to lead a business that genuinely values its people, we’d love to hear from you.

What You’ll Be Responsible For:

As Branch Manager, you’ll have full operational responsibility for the South Australian Energy and Contract Logistics business, including:

Leading a high-performing operations team across fuel and contract logistics.

Driving a culture where “Everybody Safe Every Day” is embedded in everything we do.

Managing fleet performance, scheduling, utilisation and operational efficiency.

Delivering exceptional customer service while strengthening long-term client relationships.

Working closely with fuel terminals, contractors and key stakeholders.

Leading financial performance, budgets, KPIs and profitability.

Identifying opportunities to improve productivity, service delivery and business performance.

Ensuring compliance with Dangerous Goods legislation, Chain of Responsibility, fatigue management and company standards.

Recruiting, coaching and developing talented operational teams.

Leading incident investigations, risk management and continuous improvement initiatives.

About You:

You’re an experienced transport or logistics leader who enjoys balancing operational excellence with people leadership.

You’ll ideally bring:

Significant leadership experience within transport, logistics, fuel, energy or dangerous goods.

Strong commercial acumen and experience managing operational budgets.

Proven success leading large operational teams in fast-paced environments.

A genuine passion for safety, compliance and continuous improvement.

Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.

Experience managing fleet operations and transport scheduling.

The ability to make sound decisions under pressure while maintaining exceptional customer outcomes.

Experience within fuel, hazardous chemicals or dangerous goods transport will be highly regarded, however experienced transport leaders from broader logistics environments are encouraged to apply.

Why Join us:

Rewarding remuneration package

Novated car lease option

Salary sacrifice

Paid parental leave

Growth and development to support career progression

Employee recognition and rewards program

24/7 Employee assistance program including financial wellness support

Corporate health plan discount

Background checks for all new employees to support our safe workplace

Stable ASX listed, multi-modal business with 80 years of industry history

If this opportunity sounds like the right fit for you, we encourage you to apply today.

To uphold our core value of “Everybody Safe Everyday” a pre-employment medical and police check will be required to be successful in this role.

Applicants must have full Australian working rights. We are not engaging recruitment agencies for this role.
