About Ofload And Our Mission

FreightTech is one of the most exciting spaces to be in right now, with the opportunity to transform one of the largest industries. Freight in Australia is a $66 billion market, yet it is analogue and has many inefficiencies: 30% of the time, trucks drive empty. Networks lack transparency, data flows are fragmented, and smaller transport operators face barriers to competing with the big players.

At Ofload, we're changing how the freight industry operates and bringing it into the digital world. We leverage technology, data, and strategic partnerships to connect a growing roster of blue-chip customers with smaller, highly efficient transport operators. By reducing empty truck miles, improving visibility, and optimising supply chains, we're driving smarter, greener, and more efficient operations that benefit businesses and the environment.

This isn't just logistics—it's FreightTech: a tech-powered transformation of an industry that is the backbone of the economy and touches everyone's lives.

Why Join Ofload?

Our team thrives on challenges, values direct and honest feedback, and is committed to growing together.

We've raised over $100M in funding from some of the world's top investors—backers of companies like Canva, Revolut, and HelloFresh. Along the way, we've been recognized for our innovation and culture:

  • Ranked #2: AFR BOSS Best Places to Work 2024 in Transport and Construction
