Job description

Fleet Logistics, Transport & Shed Operations

Melbourne | Full-time| Supporting Victoria and South Australia

Keep our fleet moving

Enjoy organising people, running a busy transport schedule and keeping vehicles moving? Join SIXT Australia - VIC & SA and help keep our passenger and commercial fleet serviced, prepared and available across two states.

Lawrence (Vic) Pty Ltd operates as an independent SIXT licensee across Victoria and South Australia. We are seeking a practical, organised Fleet Operations Coordinator to connect drivers, car carriers, branches, service providers and our physical fleet facility.

The opportunity

Reporting to the Fleet Operations Manager, you will manage the daily schedules for car carrier transporters and drivers moving vehicles that require elevated licence classes, coordinate servicing across Victoria and South Australia, and oversee the flow of vehicles through the fleet shed. This is a hands-on operational coordination role with changing priorities throughout the day.

What you will do

Schedule and direct car carrier transporters, coordinating vehicle collections, deliveries, backloads and movements between branches, the fleet facility and external partners.

Coordinate appropriately licensed heavy-vehicle drivers to relocate trucks, buses and other vehicles requiring an elevated licence class, checking licence and vehicle requirements.

Coordinate servicing for the entire VIC and SA fleet, including mobile and workshop bookings, service-due follow-up, vehicle downtime and safe return to rental availability.

Manage the day-to-day flow of vehicles through the physical fleet shed, including vehicles entering and leaving for servicing, sales, panel repairs and fleet transfers.

Coordinate the defleeting of approved sale vehicles, from branch preparation and rental restrictions through to collection, transport, keys, documents and handover.

Complete daily fleet administration, including vehicle books, keys, in-fleeting support, registration and transfer records, and other ad hoc operational tasks.

About you

You are an excellent organiser who can confidently direct busy transport schedules, communicate with drivers and branches, and keep physical vehicles and records aligned. Experience in fleet coordination, transport dispatch, car carrier logistics, service scheduling or automotive operations is desirable. You are comfortable with Excel or Google Sheets and can adapt plans when priorities change. Knowledge of heavy-vehicle licence classes is an advantage; this is a coordination role, not a requirement to drive a heavy vehicle.

Why this role?

You will be central to the movement and readiness of a diverse passenger, commercial and heavy-vehicle fleet, working closely with the Fleet Operations Manager and branch teams. Your work directly affects fleet availability, vehicle downtime and customer service.
