Finance & Operations Administration Manager

- Payroll, accounts, stock administration, logistics and operations support
- Global industrial product development company
- State of the art R&D; facilities in Port Kembla
- Mixed blue-collar and white-collar local workforce
- International group with worldwide market presence

If you are a hands-on business administration and finance professional who enjoys being close to the day-to-day running of a practical industrial operation, this is a fabulous long-term permanent opportunity for you... The local operation in Port Kembla has around 30 people across a mix of technical, production, warehouse, commercial and management functions. The business forms part of a larger international industrial technology group with global reach, solid products and long-term backing.

This role sits at the centre of the local operation… you will work across accounts, payroll, warehouse inventory, processing and customer logistics.

The role has variety, but it is not designed to stretch someone beyond reason. It is about being the reliable coordination point across the facility, with different priorities coming into focus at different times of the week, month, quarter and year.

Key areas will include:

- Internal coordination between management, warehouse, accounts, suppliers and customers.
- e.g. general administration, management support, lead handling, and basic web maintenance including stock, pricing and product additions.




- Payroll and associated record keeping for the local team (3-5 staff).
- e.g. STP processing, payroll records, superannuation compliance and related administration.
- QuickBooks-style accounts processing.
- e.g. invoicing, statements, payables, supplier payments, banking, reconciliations, expenses and general ledger administration.
- Stock management and logistics administration.
- e.g. supplier orders, order and stock planning support, SKU assembly, kitting, freight administration in ERP, customer logistics contact and warehouse workflow support.

This will suit someone who is:

- Consistent
- Dependable
- Organised
- Comfortable being trusted with a broad role.

You do not need to come from a large corporate environment. As a minimum you will need:

- Enough accounts and payroll competence to keep the finance administration clean
- Enough stock and ERP discipline to support warehouse and order flow
- Enough practical flexibility to support management and operations without needing a narrowly defined corporate structure

In fact, this role will suit someone who enjoys:

- Ownership
- Common sense
- Practical communication
- Getting things done without unnecessary red tape

You will be "always on" at the heart of the activities of our facility as the coordinating "ears and the eyes" to the MD. All our lines are open!

If this sounds like you or someone familiar, please get in touch using your resourcefulness via DM, email, phone OR simply clicking APPLY!
