The Opportunity

We are looking for an organised, detail-focused and hands-on Purchasing & Inventory Admin Assistant to join our Supply Chain team.

Working closely with our Supply Chain Manager, you will be involved in the day-to-day purchasing and inventory requirements of a portfolio of international brands, while also providing essential administrative support across the Supply Chain function.

This is a varied role with a strong administrative component. You'll work across purchase orders, stock and product data, inventory reporting, incoming shipments, range maintenance and hands-on product preparation.

As you become familiar with our brands and systems, you'll also be involved in preparing and placing orders, monitoring stock requirements and supporting the ongoing inventory needs of your allocated brands.

It's an ideal opportunity for someone who is highly organised, enjoys working with numbers and product, and wants to develop their experience in purchasing and inventory within a supportive team environment.

Previous purchasing experience is not essential. If you're a strong administrator with excellent attention to detail and an interest in developing your skills in purchasing and inventory, we'll provide full training to help you succeed in the role.

What You'll Be Doing

• Assisting with the day-to-day purchasing and inventory requirements of allocated brands

• Preparing, processing and placing purchase orders

• Monitoring stock levels and supporting replenishment requirements

• Maintaining accurate purchasing, inventory and product data

• Processing costings and stock receipts

• Updating product, pricing and supplier information

• Preparing regular inventory and stock reports

• Liaising with overseas manufacturers and local suppliers regarding orders and deliveries

• Monitoring incoming shipments and updating expected delivery information

• Assisting with new product and range launches

• Creating, maintaining and updating sales representative ranges

• Maintaining discontinued, clearance and special-order inventory information

• Participating in office-based stocktakes

• Preparing and organising physical stock for presentations, launches and range updates

• Providing day-to-day administrative support to the Supply Chain Manager and wider team

What You'll Bring

• Strong administration and organisational skills

• Excellent attention to detail and accuracy

• Confidence working with numbers, data and spreadsheets

• Good Excel and general computer skills

• Strong written and verbal communication skills

• Ability to manage multiple tasks and follow them through to completion

• A practical, hands-on approach and willingness to work with physical product when required

• Previous experience in purchasing, inventory, stock administration or buying support would be an advantage, but is not essential

Who You Are

You're someone who enjoys being organised, keeping things moving and making sure the details are right.

You're comfortable with the administrative side of purchasing — maintaining accurate data, processing orders, updating information and following up deliveries — while also being interested in developing your purchasing knowledge and taking greater responsibility for allocated brands over time.

You'll enjoy being part of a team, take pride in accuracy and be happy to roll up your sleeves when there's stock to prepare, a range to update or a stocktake to complete.

Why Join Us

• Join an established Australian business operating since 1962

• Work with a portfolio of internationally recognised jewellery and watch brands

• Varied role across purchasing, inventory, product and administration

• Full training provided

• Opportunity to develop greater responsibility for allocated brands

• Supportive and vibrant working environment

• On-site undercover parking in Chatswood

• Product perks and ongoing training

• Genuine opportunity to develop your purchasing and inventory experience
