• Bring your freight forwarding experience to this exciting new role

Neptune Pacific Direct Line (NPDL) is experiencing a period of significant transformation. Formed in 2020, Neptune Pacific Line acquired Pacific Direct Line, bringing together two of the South Pacific’s top shipping and logistics companies to support the full supply chain of our customers in the region. NPDL is part of The Wonderful Company headquartered in Los Angeles, CA. Its other companies include FIJI Water, Justin and Landmark Vineyards, Vintage Nurseries, Wonderful Citrus, Wonderful Pistachios, Teleflora, POM Wonderful and Suterra.

What you will be doing:

• Defining price structure, deciding on and disseminating prices
• Providing recommendations to ensure pricing strategy is optimised
• Monitoring price trends, other key indicators and ad hoc gathering of pricing information
• Day-to-day and tactical price analysis, modelling, and optimisation
• Landside/door-to-door product development, including rate procurement and vendor engagement
• Pricing plan development and adjustments, as well as assessing the performance of business results against targets and reasons for deviations
• Management of CargoWise workflows to drive business process automation

This role is a pivotal one – it is a fulltime, permanent role based in our Parnell office.  Whilst this role is based in Auckland, we would also welcome applications from Sydney.  We are looking for someone to own the role and really take control of our continued growth in this area.  There is also plenty of opportunity for personal and career development.
