4 days ago

Cremorne, Victoria, Australia 6bb914e7-9980-481a-8480-6edcb5419ac6 Full time $60,000 - $80,000 per year

About Us

Canningvale is a proud Australian homewares brand with over 40 years of history, built on quality, integrity, and timeless design. Our mission is to be Australia's most trusted homewares brand - creating products made to last and helping customers "Love Your Home."

From our Melbourne headquarters, we manage the full product lifecycle - from design and sourcing through to logistics and online retail - ensuring exceptional quality and value at every step.

The RoleWe're looking for an organised, proactive Operations & Purchasing Coordinator to join our team for a 12-month contract. This is a varied, hands-on role where you'll work across purchasing, logistics coordination, product development support, and general office operations.

You'll receive a full handover, ongoing support, and clear processes - so you won't be expected to know everything on day one.

This role is based in Melbourne and typically requires one day a week in the office (with additional days during photo shoots or key projects).

You'll work closely with our product, sourcing, and logistics teams, plus external suppliers and freight partners.

What You'll Be Doing

Purchase Order & Logistics Coordination

  • Raise and manage purchase orders in our ERP (training provided).
  • Work with suppliers and freight forwarders on order updates and shipment confirmations.
  • Maintain accuracy across systems and track inbound stock to our 3PL.

Inventory & Reporting

  • Maintain costing sheets and update ETAs.
  • Assist with stock reconciliations and general reporting tasks.
  • Support the business with simple, regular operational reports.

Product Development Support

  • Prepare and collate product data sheets.
  • Manage samples and help coordinate photo shoot prep.
  • Be hands-on during photo shoots where needed.

Office & General Coordination

  • Manage supplies, couriers, and ad-hoc office needs.
  • Support sample organisation and maintain tidy shared spaces.
  • Liaise with cleaners and ensure smooth day-to-day office operations.

What we're looking for

  • 1–2 years' experience in operations, purchasing, supply chain, or admin coordination (retail or wholesale an advantage).
  • Strong Excel skills and confidence working across multiple systems (NetSuite experience welcome but not required).
  • Great communication skills and a team-first mindset.
  • Organised, detail-oriented, and able to manage competing priorities.
  • Adaptable, proactive, and happy to pitch in where needed.
  • Valid Australian work rights required.

If you're early in your career and looking to build broad operations experience, this role is a great stepping stone.

Why join us?

  • Be part of an established Australian retail group with over 35,000 five-star reviews and a strong customer-first culture.
  • A broad, hands-on role with real variety - from spreadsheets to photo shoots to supplier coordination.
  • Collaborative, supportive team where your contribution makes a real impact.
  • Flexibility with hybrid working (mix of in-office and at-home days, depending on business needs).

We encourage you to apply even if you don't meet every single requirement. Enthusiasm, adaptability, and a willingness to learn are just as important as experience.
