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!

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.

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.

• 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
• Exceptional communication skills and fluent English capabilities
• 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.

Life at Ofload

At Ofload, our values are in our DNA and underpin the work we do every day. We are proud of the collaborative, diverse and innovative culture we continue to build. The Ofload team is motivated by a shared ambition to digitise the logistics industry and have a truckload of fun while doing it! As well as the opportunity to join a high-growth organisation with the ability to make a meaningful impact everyday, you will enjoy;

• Working in a hybrid environment with a split of in-office and working from home. Our philosophy on working is one built around connection, inclusion and flexibility.
• Holistic wellness support for you and your family through our wellbeing partnership with Acacia Connection
• Generous parental leave entitlements including 16 weeks primary caregiver leave and continued superannuation contributions
• Annual learning and development budget to support your professional growth
• Paid volunteer leave to support the causes that matter to you

Plus all the exciting perks of joining a startup - epic Ofload swag, weekly catered breakfasts, monthly team lunch, a reward and recognition program and plenty of social events.

Ofload is committed to building diverse and inclusive teams, and a culture where people can bring their whole authentic selves to work each day. Applications are highly encouraged from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people; and equity target groups including women, people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, people with disabilities, and people who identify as LGBTIQA+.
