VG Group is a Toowoomba-based equipment company operating two brands — DTE Equipment (vegetation and land management equipment) and Vortec Global (hydroseeders and erosion control equipment, manufactured here in Australia). We're growing fast and need an Operations Coordinator to run the floor.
About the Role
This is an office-based coordination role at the centre of our operation. You'll be the person making sure the right stock arrives, the right products get built in the right order, and the right freight goes out the door on time. You'll lead a small team of 4 assembly and warehouse personnel and report directly to our Operations Director.
Key Responsibilities
Production
Schedule and sequence daily/weekly production against sales demand
Allocate work across the 4 assemblers and manage day-to-day workload and priorities
Monitor build quality and throughput, reporting blockers as they arise
Receiving
Manage non-conformances on receipt (damaged, short, or incorrect items) and follow up with suppliers
Ensure stock is logged into the system accurately and promptly
Warehousing
Own Kanban, stock location, storage standards, and inventory accuracy
Coordinate cyclic counts and stocktakes
Manage consumables and shop stock reordering
Development to Production
Coordinate the handover of new and updated products from engineering into repeatable production runs
Own build documentation, BOMs, and work instructions for the floor
Communicate design-for-manufacture issues from assembly team back to engineering
Dispatch, Delivery & Training Coordination
Book outbound freight and coordinate carriers
Coordinate delivery timing with sales and customers
Health & Safety
Own H&S; compliance for the floor
Key Performance Indicators
On-time dispatch rate — freight booked and goods shipped against promised delivery dates




Production schedule adherence — builds completed against the planned weekly schedule
Inventory accuracy — variance between system stock and physical stocktake counts
Receiving turnaround — time from goods-in to stock being logged and available
H&S; compliance — inductions, toolbox talks, and incident/hazard reporting completed on schedule
Team output — assembler workload allocated and tracked with no avoidable downtime
Who You Report To
You'll report to our Operations Director, who sets the standard for process and structure across operations, leads major system improvements, and provides technical advice — your job is to own the day-to-day execution so those standards are actually run to.
What We're Looking For
Experience coordinating warehouse, production, or logistics operations
Comfortable leading a small team and holding people accountable
Strong organisational skills — juggling receiving, scheduling, and dispatch without dropping balls
Confident with systems (inventory/CRM/ERP) and comfortable being the source of truth for stock and production status
Health & Safety experience, or willingness to own it
Manufacturing, equipment, or industrial background highly regarded
This role offers genuine career progression within VG Group. As you build a strong track record running the floor, there's a clear path to progress into an Operations Manager role. We're also a business that supports people moving around internally — if your interests or strengths point toward another part of the business, we're open to backing that move too.
What We Offer
Team building events and lunches
Outstanding culture with a highly engaged team
Why VG Group
We're growing fast, and we get things done without corporate red tape. You won't be a small cog in a big machine — you'll run a real part of the business and see your work matter every day.
