We value individuality, personality and guts.  While your experience or qualifications are important, we're just as interested in what makes you...you.  We believe these are the qualities that will help you one day lead a team, a branch, or a country.  If you're a career-orientated individual who's hungry to learn, grow and be challenged, you've come to the right place. 

What's important to us...

DIVERSITY

The right people come from a range of backgrounds, but all of these people identify Mainfreight as a place to build their careers. For many, it is after completing tertiary study, but for others it is the decision to start work at Mainfreight as an alternative to study.

ENVIRONMENT

Mainfreight has always attempted to reduce the environmental impact of our operations. Our sustainability initiatives have often resulted in reduced costs; so the bottom line and the environment are both winners.

COMMUNITY

We believe in taking responsibility. Mainfreight is the founding sponsor of Duffy Books in Homes since its inception in New Zealand over 20 years ago. Beginning in 2008, Mainfreight has helped establish "Books in Homes USA" to supply over 170,000 free books to children living in "bookless homes". We continue to strive to have a positive impact on our local communities.
