Hiring guide
Shipping and logistics managers coordinate the movement of goods, managing carriers, customs, freight costs, and delivery performance across domestic and international supply chains. Offshore logistics managers are well-suited to the coordination, documentation, and communication-heavy aspects of the role, tracking shipments, managing carrier relationships, handling customs documentation, and reporting on freight performance.
customs classification, biosecurity, and DAFF requirements are not optional knowledge for Australian logistics.
Australia Post, StarTrack, Toll, DHL, and freight forwarders relevant to your supply chain.
Confirm experience with logistics management systems or TMS platforms (CargoWise, Shippit, Transvirtual, or similar).
commercial invoices, packing lists, Bills of Lading, and customs entry knowledge.
No Australian customs knowledge, import/export errors delay shipments and attract fines; this is not something to learn on the job
Carrier management limited to booking, no experience negotiating rates or managing carrier performance issues
No TMS or freight management system experience, manual spreadsheet-based logistics management doesn't scale
Poor exception management, can handle normal shipments but freezes when things go wrong (delays, damage, customs holds)
No Incoterms understanding, misapplying trade terms creates financial and legal exposure
Logistics knowledge limited to domestic, no international freight experience if your supply chain crosses borders
Australia's geography creates logistics challenges that don't exist in most other markets, long domestic distances, high last-mile costs to regional areas, and strict biosecurity requirements for imports. Candidates who've managed logistics into and within Australia understand these realities. Offshore logistics managers from Southeast Asia often have strong international freight experience but may need coaching on the specifics of Australian domestic carrier networks.
"A shipment from our supplier in China has been held at Australian customs. Walk me through how you'd handle it."
Customs delays are high-stakes situations requiring documentation, broker coordination, and communication, their process reveals operational competence.
"How do you choose between air freight and sea freight for an urgent but large shipment?"
Mode selection involves cost, time, product sensitivity, and inventory implications, this tests commercial and operational judgment simultaneously.
"Describe how you'd set up and manage carrier performance monitoring across multiple freight partners."
Carrier accountability and performance management is how logistics managers deliver value beyond transaction coordination.
"How have you reduced freight costs without compromising service levels in a previous role?"
Cost optimisation is a key logistics deliverable, their specific examples reveal both analytical capability and commercial awareness.
Hiring models
Every model has trade-offs. Here's how they compare so you can choose the right fit for your team.
General options
Hire directly in your city. Full cultural alignment and in-office presence, but the talent pool is limited and salaries are high.
Engage on a task or sprint basis. Fast to start, but loyalty is low and availability is never guaranteed long-term.
Hand off a scoped project to an agency. Good for defined deliverables, but you pay a premium and own very little of the relationship.
Via Teamified
Get a dedicated, full-time shipping and logistics managers: vetted, onboarded, and HR-managed by Teamified. Same output as a local hire, at a fraction of the cost.
On salary costs vs. hiring locally
We headhunt the talent that isn't actively looking. Deep network access, thorough vetting, and a curated shortlist, and you make the final call.
Industry average is 15%, so you keep the difference
Hand us the brief and we run the whole process: sourcing, screening, interviews, and offer management. Your team stays focused on the business.

Have a chat with Teamified. You will get a sense that it's much more of a relationship situation where they're really wanting to understand your business, as opposed to a more transactional experience, which is what we found talking with some other providers. The good thing is, there's a team behind you if you pick the right partner to help.

Using Teamified is so much easier. One fee, then they handle all the HR stuff, so you have one less headache as you grow your business. All you want to do is minimise your headaches, and that's what Teamified does.

I encourage all founders to treat this no different than hiring a local resource. The best thing about Teamified? They find great talent, vet them, and give you the flexibility to be as involved as you want in the hiring process.
