Applications close Thursday 4th April 2024. 

At Ofload, we're at the forefront of digital freight services, empowering businesses to build efficient, flexible, and sustainable supply chains. Our mission is to achieve zero waste in trucking by digitising the transport industry.

Every day in Australia, around 30% of trucks travel empty and a further 50% are idle amounting to mass inefficiency and harmful environmental impacts. 

Since 2020, we've successfully removed over 5 million empty kms from Australian roads. Our customer base has expanded to over 250 businesses, and we proudly support small business carriers by connecting them with household brands like Asahi, Metcash, and Noumi.

As part of our sustainability commitment, we partnered with Trace to measure, reduce and offset our emissions, actively working to minimise our own environmental impact.

In 2022, we propelled our growth through the strategic acquisition of a Melbourne-based logistics company, and raised $60m in Series B funding. Notably, we were recognised by the Australian Financial Review as one of Australia’s Most Innovative Companies.

Fast forward to 2023, Ofload was named a Deloitte Tech Fast 50 Company in Australia, and secured the 4th spot on the LinkedIn Top Startups List 2023. And here's the exciting part – we're just getting started!

We are looking to grow our team and welcome people excited by the opportunity to transform the logistics industry. If you're ready to be part of a dynamic team driving change,  join us on this incredible journey!

The Role

We are looking for an excellent communicator who is passionate about getting a timely resolution. No previous experience in operations is necessary, as we'll train you on the job. This is not your typical Customer Service role, where you never speak to the customer again. Instead, you'll be responsible for establishing long lasting relationships, by building rapport and connections with both our shippers and carriers, obtaining necessary documents and resolving any issues that arise. If you're looking for more than 'just a job' and want this to be the start of your career, this is a great opportunity for you.

What You'll Do

• Develop and manage relationships with existing customers
• Support the operations team at Ofload in the daily business
• Handling inbound queries via phone, email and facebook
• Engage with our customers directly and regularly, conducting all outbound calls
• Listening to customers to understand their needs and provide assistance to help resolve any issues
• Drive outbound operational queries by contacting carriers for essential documents or shipment updates
• Creating relationships with new customers on the platform, verifying their data and updating their profiles as required
• Record and modify customer information on our database
• Taking ownership of data entry for quotes collected by the teams
• Manage and update the platform to indicate shipment status
• Keep accurate records and document customer service actions and discussions

What You'll Bring

• High School Graduate or above
• Highly organised, self-motivated with excellent attention to detail
• Customer service experience preferred
• Willingness to learn and get into the weeds of the business is critical
• Experience with Salesforce is a bonus!
• Proficient at using data software including MS Excel

• Demonstrates initiative, with the ability to multitask and prioritise in a fast-paced environment
• Scrappy - willing to dive in, hands-on and do what’s needed
• Permitted to work in Australia permanently with no restriction on hours (required)

At Ofload we prioritise impact, aptitude and passion, so we’d encourage you to apply if you do not meet all the above criteria.
