Description

Job Title Associate – Supply Chain & Logistics Advisory, ANZ Job Description Summary A hands-on supply chain advisory role focused on solving real-world operational challenges for clients. This role combines practical supply chain experience with structured problem-solving to design and deliver improvements across networks, operations, and real estate footprints. Job Description About the Role: Operational Problem Solving (Core Focus) Work with clients to understand how their supply chains actually operate - through site visits, stakeholder discussions, and hands-on diagnostics. Identify inefficiencies across warehousing, transport, inventory, and fulfilment - and develop practical, implementable solutions. Apply structured thinking to breakdown complex operational problems and define clear improvement pathways. Supply Chain Design & Improvement Support projects across network design, footprint strategy, warehouse layout and operational optimisation. Use data and analysis to support decision-making. Translate operational insight into recommendations that balance cost, service and real-world constraints our clients face. Client Engagement & Delivery Work closely with clients on-site and in workshops to understand challenges and test solutions. Communicate clearly and practically, focusing on what can be implemented - not just what looks optimal on paper – alongside our ANZ market teams. Contribute to project delivery, taking ownership of workstreams and outputs. Commercial Exposure & Growth Support proposals, pitches, and client discussions from the outset and as the SCLA capability grows in Australia. Work alongside C&W’s Logistics & Industrial teams to connect supply chain challenges with real estate solutions. Gain exposure to how consulting work is shaped, sold, and delivered. About You: Hands-On Supply Chain Experience (Essential) 3–5 years’ experience in supply chain, logistics, or operations (e.g. warehouse, transport, manufacturing, distribution). You’ve seen how operations work in practice — not just in theory or models. Comfortable being on-site, asking questions and understanding how things actually run. Problem-Solving Mindset (Critical) Naturally curious - you ask “why does it work this way?” and “how could it be better?” Able to break down problems and think through practical solutions. Not just analytical - you focus on what is realistic and implementable. Consulting / Communication Potential Able to structure your thinking and communicate clearly (written and verbal). Comfortable working with stakeholders and contributing to client discussions. An interest in moving into a more advisory, client-facing role. Analytical Capability (Supporting Skillset) Comfortable working with data (Excel, etc.) to support analysis and decision-making. Able to interpret data and draw insights - utilising our existing in-house team for complex modelling. Exposure to tools like Power BI or network design software is a bonus, not essential. Mindset & Attributes Keen to learn and develop within a growing, entrepreneurial team. Enjoys variety - from site visits and client interaction to occasional analysis and problem solving. Interested in how supply chain decisions translate into real estate decisions. Why join Cushman & Wakefield?
