Our client is a trusted name in Australia's interior design and architecture community, with over 35 years representing many of the world's most revered fabric houses — offering a globally sourced selection of textiles, wallpaper and interior accessories for both residential and commercial markets. With a strong reputation for craftsmanship, quality and service, they're a team that values knowledge-sharing, collaboration and looking after their clients exceptionally well. They give their people real ownership early, and the support to grow into it.

They're now seeking an organised and proactive Operations & Studio Coordinator to be the operational backbone of the business across their showrooms in Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland. Like a studio manager in a design practice, you'll keep the workflow moving between the offices, overseas suppliers and the sales team — making sure the right things happen at the right time, and nothing falls through the cracks. This is a Melbourne-based role and all coordination is run from the Richmond showroom (no travel required).

The role is designed to grow. They're looking for someone ready to take ownership from day one and develop into the Operations Manager over time. You'll begin by coordinating and running the systems, and as you build your understanding of the business, you'll be handed greater responsibility for process, supplier relationships and decision-making. If you're ambitious about operations and want a business that will invest in that, this role is for you.

Track orders and deliveries end to end, anticipate delays, and keep internal teams informed
