TeamLeader

**Team Leader – Valero** At Svitzer, we keep global trade moving — safely, efficiently, and as one team. We’re looking for a Team Leader to support operations at the Valero Terminal. This is a key frontline role, responsible for leading a shift team to deliver safe, compliant and efficient berthing, mooring and maintenance activities. **About the role** As Team Leader, you’ll take ownership of your shift — ensuring clear handovers, coordinating daily tasks, and working closely with the Shift Supervisor and Valero Operators. You’ll lead your team through berthing, unberthing, connections and disconnections, while remaining hands-on and actively involved in day-to-day activities. You’ll also lead on the delivery of scheduled maintenance requirements in line with Valero expectations, including painting, housekeeping and general site upkeep, ensuring standards are consistently maintained. While your primary responsibility is your assigned shift, you’ll support consistent standards, behaviours and ways of working across all Svitzer personnel operating at Valero. You’ll ensure equipment is prepared and operational, carry out berth inspections, and maintain accurate records including labour utilisation and maintenance reporting. You’ll also support weather assessments, assist with monitoring operations when required, and ensure housekeeping standards are consistently met. **Safety, leadership and performance** Safety is central to everything we do. You’ll promote a strong safety culture through HIT tools and Lifesaving Rules, supporting Valero in achieving their Goal Zero standards and requirements. You’ll ensure hazards, near misses and incidents are reported and learned from, while creating an environment where people feel confident to speak up. You’ll lead by example — setting clear expectations, maintaining high standards of behaviour and performance, and supporting the development of your team through coaching, knowledge sharing and training.
