  • Preparing quotes and processing sales orders efficiently and accurately
  • Following up on deliveries and keeping customers informed
  • Coordinating with suppliers and warehouse teams to ensure part availability
  • Promoting online ordering tools and current promotions
  • Assisting with stock control, stocktakes, and branch organisation
  • Supporting daily operations as needed
  • Following safety protocols and meeting Chain of Responsibility (CoR) requirements

What you'll bring

  • Experience as a Parts Interpreter—ideally in truck, trailer, or automotive industries; OR a strong mechanical trade background with an interest in parts
  • Solid knowledge of vehicle parts and cataloguing systems
  • Strong communication and time management skills
  • Good computer and inventory system skills
  • A customer-first mindset and proactive team attitude
  • Attention to detail and a willingness to learn

Why join MaxiPARTS?

  • Be part of an ASX-listed industry leader
  • Supportive, down-to-earth team culture
  • Hands-on training and genuine career development opportunities
  • Competitive pay and great staff benefits
  • Additional perks including Paid Parental Leave, Employee Assistance Program, NAWO membership, and more
