About the job

At Hynds, our Pokeno site is one of the most advanced automated precast facilities in the Southern Hemisphere, and it's built to be a model factory: clean, safe, capable, and something our whole team is proud of. We're looking for an Import / Export Operations Supervisor to lead the daily flow of containers through the yard, keeping things moving safely, efficiently, and to a high standard.

If you know your way around a forklift, love a well-planned load, and get a kick out of leading a crew that works well together, this could be your next move.

What you'll be doing

  • Supervising the devanning of import containers and the loading of export containers
  • Loading and securing exports to load plans, weight distribution requirements, and customer specs
  • Inspecting arriving containers for seal integrity, damage, and MPI compliance
  • Running quality checks before anything leaves the yard
  • Keeping load-out times tight by coordinating loaders and working closely with dispatch
  • Making sure stock condition is accurately recorded in M3

What you'll bring

  • 2–5 years' forklift experience in civil construction, building, or manufacturing
  • Full NZ driver licence (Class 1) with F endorsement, plus relevant tickets
  • Practical yard health and safety experience, with a genuine commitment to getting everyone home safe
  • Leadership ability, including coaching, motivating, and holding people to a high standard
  • A good eye for detail and a process-driven approach
  • Confidence with computers and MS Office (M3 experience is a bonus)
  • Clear communication skills and the ability to build good relationships inside and outside the business

Benefits

  • Health insurance (subject to eligibility criteria)
  • Access to company partner discounts
  • Employee Assistance Programme

Why Hynds?

This is a chance to be part of something special: a world-class, highly automated site in your own backyard. We're a place where people matter. We back our people with ongoing training and development, and we care about doing what's right. You'll be part of a supportive team at a site that's setting the standard, with plenty of room to put your stamp on how things are done.
