TLI40324 is the nationally recognised Certificate IV in Supply Chain Operations. It prepares you for work as a warehouse administrator. It has been the current version on the national register since 2024, when it replaced TLI40321. Employers posted about 2,081 warehouse administrator jobs in June 2026, down 0.2% on a year earlier.
The signals behind the Certificate IV in Supply Chain Operations are mixed, and both sides are worth weighing. Employment is projected to grow through 2035 and enrolments are rising. The official shortage list does not rate its occupations in shortage. These are official statistics, not a promise about your result.
Job ads for warehouse administrators are holding steady. About 2,081 warehouse administrator jobs were advertised online in June 2026, down 0.2% on a year earlier. Over the last 12 months there were about 24,400 job ads, while 390 people were training in the qualification nationally (2025). Ads show the market. Enrolments show the pipeline. Neither is a job promise.
Australia's official shortage list rates production clerks, purchasing officers, stock clerks, warehouse administrators and order clerks as not in shortage. The 2025 Occupation Shortage List rates Production Clerk, Purchasing Officer, Stock Clerk, Warehouse Administrator and Order Clerk as not in shortage.
Warehouse administrator jobs are projected to grow. Jobs and Skills Australia projections put these occupations at 117,522 workers in May 2025, 123,922 by May 2030 (up 5.4%) and 130,794 by May 2035 (up 11.3%).
