Voltex Electrical Accessories

Melbourne

Voltex Electrical is one of Australia's fastest-growing electrical accessories businesses. We design our own products, sell directly to electricians, and back it with the best customer service — no middlemen, no run‐around.
Our distribution presence in Melbourne is the next big step. Going live in early ****, we need the right person on the ground from October this year to help build it, lead it and make it the benchmark for how a Voltex warehouse runs.
What you'll do
Run daily floor execution across receiving, picking, packing, dispatch and inventory flow; keep the operation on time and smooth during peaks
Lead and develop the team; set standards, coach performance, manage rostering, and address issues early
Own accuracy and inventory discipline (cycle counts, discrepancy resolution, reducing errors)
Embed safety and compliance in partnership with the safety officer, maintain equipment and storage standards
Drive practical continuous improvement to remove bottlenecks and lift speed/quality
Be the key link between warehouse and Supply Chain / Customer Service
Report to the Operations Captain
Directly manage up to 6 people initially, growing to 9 over the following few months
Requirements
Proven warehouse leadership experience across end‐to‐end floor operations (receiving to dispatch)




Strong people leadership, coaching, standards, accountability, rostering and performance management
Track record improving accuracy, flow, and team performance
Safety‐first mindset and confidence operating within OHS expectations
Practical continuous improvement approach (standardise, simplify, uplift)
Comfortable with technology and warehouse systems; open to using AI tools to improve day‐to‐day operations
Willingness to travel for onboarding. We'll fly you to Adelaide for a paid 2‐week immersion (home weekends), plus 1 week in Sydney, so you can help launch Melbourne with proven systems
Benefits
This is a high‐ownership role with real influence. You won't be inheriting a rigid operation — you'll be helping shape how the Melbourne DC runs.
Paid onboarding immersion in Adelaide and Sydney (all travel covered; home weekends)
Reliable roster / predictable hours
Opportunity to shape layout, tooling and workflows as the site ramps up
Clear growth pathway as the Melbourne DC scales
Accessible location with parking available
This role is ideal for a Warehouse Supervisor / Team Leader ready to step into a leadership role. Apply now — we're moving quickly on this one!
