Job description:
At Komatsu, we power the equipment that builds a better, more sustainable world. Our Welshpool Distribution Centre is the beating heart of our parts supply network — and we're looking for an experienced, forward-thinking Regional DC Manager to lead the operation into its next phase of innovation and excellence.
As Regional DC Manager, you'll take the lead of a key logistics hub supporting Komatsu's customers and operations across Australia. Your mission? To lead a safe, cost-effective, and high-performing warehouse operation, driving operational improvement, team capability, and strategic planning for long-term success.
You'll play a key role in shaping a positive, high-performance culture — fostering accountability, collaboration, and continuous improvement across a large and diverse team.
About you:
You're a confident, collaborative leader with strong operational acumen and a passion for continuous improvement. You thrive in dynamic environments and know how to motivate teams to perform at their best.
You'll be both hands-on and strategic — equally comfortable leading from the warehouse floor as you are influencing at the leadership table. This is your chance to make a tangible impact on service delivery, people culture, and supply chain innovation.

* Financial: Income Protection Insurance provided through our company superannuation fund.
* Career: Recognition, awards, flexibility, further education studies and internal career development.
