What are my job prospects in the transport & logistics industry?
FACT SECTION #1 1
Manufacturing output contributes to approximately 11% of New Zealand’s GDP (Gross Domestic Product) and
employ around 240,000 people.
If you’re looking for your next role in transport and logistics, you’ll be pleased to know that the construction
boom is creating greater demand for talent. “The amount of infrastructure work in Auckland alone is huge,
but there is construction activity right across the country,” says Davies. “There are roads being built, more
hotels to support growth in tourism, even the residential sector is growing. This all leads to high demand for
trucks and for logistics services.”
This is supported by the latest data from SEEK, which shows opportunities in road transport were up by 13%
year-on-year, while couriers, drivers and postal services were up by 3% and fleet management increased by
9%.
QUESTIONS for fact section #1:
1. Why do you think the current growth in construction and infrastructure (eg road building) is
leading to the increase in transport and logistics?
_________________________________________________________________________________
2. According to the data form SEEK (a NZ job advertising website) how much growth occurred in one
year for road transport?
_______________
3. Which other areas also showed significant increase in growth?

FACT SECTION #2 2
The aging population is having an impact on the transport and logistics workforce. The average age of truck
drivers in New Zealand is 53 years and Davies says the transport industry faces challenges in recruiting younger
drivers.
Mike Davies, Managing Director of recruitment firm Adecco says that candidates with suitable driving licenses
are in high demand. “There are huge opportunities in the transport industry and the money can be good, but
there is a shortage of talent. We struggle to find good drivers as Class 1, which is a standard, non-restricted
motor vehicle license. It gets harder as we progress up the licensing chain to Class 5.”
QUESTIONS for fact section #2:
4. What is the average age of NZ truck drivers?
_________
5. Why is the average age of NZ’s drivers an issue for the industry?
_________________________________________________________________________________
6. True/False: The industry finds it difficult to get good fully licenced drivers who can simply drive a
car.
___________
7. True/False: It is even harder to get good fully licenced drivers who can drive a heavy combination
vehicles.
___________

FACT SECTION #4
• In 2016, the amount of freight carried on our roads had increased 60% since 2000, but the number of
people with Class 5 licences – big-rig drivers – had risen only 10%.4
• In 2017, the National Road Carriers group said it believes more than 1000 drivers were needed
around the country.5
• While the impact of automation (taking away people’s jobs and replacing them with robots or
computers) has been a hot topic in the industry for some time, manufacturing remains one of the
country’s largest employers. “There has been a lot of talk about automation, but I don’t think plants
are in a position to bring in a whole lot of robots,” says Mike Davies, Managing Director of
recruitment firm Adecco. “We certainly haven’t seen a downturn in the requirement for people in
the past five years.”
• Average hourly rate for a truck driver is 20.95 an hour. Some drivers make up to 35.50 an hour. 6
