Keep Freight Moving. Get It Right. Get It Gone.

At Mainstream, we move, manage, and store freight across New Zealand. We’re a proudly Kiwi-owned and operated transport and logistics business, known for Service Excellence, Customer Focus, and people who go the extra mile.

We’re looking for a Delivery Dispatcher to join our Christchurch team.

This is a hands-on role at the heart of our operation - checking, loading and dispatching freight, supporting drivers and keeping linehaul moving safely and on time.

Why this role matters.

What you'll be doing.

  • Receive, check, load and unload local and linehaul freight.
  • Check manifests and report damaged or incorrect freight.
  • Load and secure freight correctly for linehaul.
  • Support driver allocation, pick slips and dispatch documentation.
  • Complete Dangerous Goods Load Plans.
  • Help ensure linehaul departures are on time.
  • Maintain a safe, clean and efficient work area.
  • Follow Mainstream’s Health & Safety policies and procedures.

What you'll bring to the role.

  • Current OSH Forklift Certificate and experience.
  • Dangerous Goods (DG) handling experience.
  • Knowledge of the Truck Loading Code.
  • Good communication, organisation and paperwork skills.
  • Reliable, physically fit and comfortable working in a busy freight environment.
  • A positive, hands-on attitude and willingness to get stuck in.

What we offer.

  • A hands-on role in a busy Christchurch freight operation.
  • Join a proudly Kiwi-owned and operated company.
  • Great opportunity to develop your skills within a growing national business.
  • Competitive remuneration and career development opportunities.

If you’re reliable, practical and take pride in getting the job done right, we want to hear from you.
