Business & Marketing Coordinator | Southfront Engineering
Part-time, 4 days/week | Adelaide CBD, with remote flexibility | $70,000–$90,000 pro-rata
Southfront is a specialist engineering consulting firm based in Adelaide, with a strong niche in flood and stormwater assessment, design, and advice.
We're a team of 8 working with repeat clients across local government, infrastructure, and renewables — and we're proud of the team culture we've built along the way, from regular team lunches and daily coffee catch-ups to an annual wine tour.
It's a genuinely close, supportive place to work.
As our leadership team grows, we're creating this new role to take ownership of our marketing execution and the operational backbone of the business, so our senior team can stay focused on clients and delivery.
It's a broad, varied role, and an important one.
A day in this role might look like
Pulling together a capability statement for a proposal due Friday.
Scheduling the month's LinkedIn content.
Reviewing the compliance calendar ahead of the annual audit.
Following up an overdue invoice.
Responding to a few enquiries in the shared inbox.
No two days are quite the same, so this role suits someone who enjoys variety and can move confidently between different areas of the business.
What you'll own
Marketing & BD support— help execute our marketing plan, manage proposals and capability statements, and maintain our BD pipeline
Quality & WHS— coordinate with our external quality consultant to maintain compliance documentation and SOPs
Insurance— coordinate our annual renewal alongside our insurance broker
HR & people operations— HRIS administration, onboarding/offboarding, policy records, and recruitment coordination, working closely with our outsourced HR provider
Accounts receivable support— monitor our Xero ledger and follow up overdue accounts, liaising with our external accountant on queries




Office & supplier management— keep the CBD office running smoothly
Enquiry inbox— first point of contact for incoming business enquiries
You won't be doing this alone, our external accountant, insurance broker, HR provider, and quality consultant all play an active role, and part of this position is coordinating closely with each of them.
What you'll bring
Proven experience in a business coordinator, office manager, marketing, or operations role.
Ideally within engineering, consulting, or another professional services firm
A positive, can-do attitude and the confidence to work independently across a few different areas at once
Adaptability.
Comfortable picking up new systems and moving between different types of work
Systematic and reliable.
You keep track of recurring deadlines without being reminded, and nothing falls through the cracks.
Initiative.
When you notice something that could be improved, you enjoy being the one to make it happen
Experience with Xero, and familiarity with an HRIS platform (we use Employment Hero)
Direct experience with ISO-certified management systems is an advantage, but not essential.
What matters most is how you work and how you fit with the team.
We also welcome applications from people returning to work after a career break, your experience doesn't need to be recent for it to count.
What we offer
A varied, meaningful role with genuine ownership from day one
Flexible part time arrangement, 4 days a week.
Our typical hours are 8:30am–5pm, but start and finish times can flex around school runs, and remote days are available
A close, professional team that values working well together, not just working hard
A leadership team investing in this role's growth as the business grows
A structured handover and 90-day induction plan to set you up for success
