Weekend PM Freight Planner


FREIGHT PLANNER WANTED
Weekend Role | Friday - Tuesday | PM Hours

Are you a natural problem-solver? A cool head under pressure? A bit of a night owl who enjoys working while the rest of the world sleeps?

We’re looking for a sharp, solutions-focused Freight Planner to join our growing Christchurch team. This is a key role at the heart of the action — where smart thinking keeps freight moving and customers smiling.

What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll be the mastermind behind the movement — planning and coordinating freight, balancing customer expectations, driver availability, and operational efficiency.

No two shifts are the same. You’ll think ahead, pivot fast, and solve problems in real time — all while the country winds down for the night. If you enjoy turning complex freight challenges into seamless plans, this is your kind of role.

What You’ll Bring

  • Proven freight planning or transport operations experience
  • A puzzle-solving mindset with logical and lateral thinking
  • Strong NZ geographical knowledge
  • Calm, solutions-focused customer service skills
  • Excellent communication & time management
  • Confidence in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment
  • Comfort working PM hours — you’re productive while others power down

Why Join Booth’s Logistics?

We live and breathe a Can Do, Will Do attitude. Our people go above and beyond — that’s the Booth’s way.

  • Supportive, experienced team
  • A genuinely engaging role where your planning skills matter
  • Ongoing development opportunities
  • Be part of a growing organisation helping drive NZ’s supply chain forward

Innovation, passion, integrity, and teamwork are part of our DNA — and we’re ready to welcome our next night-shift problem solver.
