The Inventory Manager – Maritime Sustainment will support the Australian Border Force’s (ABF) and Evolved Cape Class Patrol Boat (ECCPB) program and integrate it into the Maritime Sustainment Model (MSM).

Key Responsibilities

- Ensure all parts and materials are forecast, ordered and delivered in time to meet maintenance schedules.
- Work closely with planners to translate maintenance plans into real‑world supply requirements.
- Identify what parts are needed, where to get them and how long they’ll take to arrive.
- Ensure procurement timing and staging supports actual vessel availability; not just planning assumptions.
- Work out how ABF inventory is managed inside Defence systems, including:

- Items required for codification.
- How stock is tracked and accounted for.
- How inventory is managed across duel environments.

- Forecast demand using engineering inputs and usage patterns.
- Manage reverse logistics pipelines (repairables, returns, refurbishment).
- Provide inventory assurance, ensuring accuracy,



visibility, and accountability.

Skills and Experience

- Strong experience in Defence Integrated Logistics Support (ILS) or logistics/inventory environments.

- Prior experience with ECCPB or similar vessels.
- Deep understanding of Defence systems, processes, and constraints.
- Proven ability to:
