The division will be headed up by Shane O'Neill.

A new Specialised & Domestic Freight division will group together the businesses of Toll Express, Toll Linehaul, Westrans, NQX, Perkins, Toll Liquids, Toll Fleet, Toll Chemicals and Toll Transitions under Mal Grimmond.

"I believe these changes will ensure we pave the way toward a future of further growth and new opportunities for our company and our people," Mr Little said in a statement.
