Sales & Administration Assistant
Prime Fire Supplies – Smeaton Grange, NSW
Full-time | Monday to Friday | 7:00am start
$50,000–$70,000 + super, depending on experience
Prime Fire Supplies is a growing, family-run fire protection supply business based in Smeaton Grange.
We’ve been operating for approximately two years and have experienced strong growth during that time. We’re now looking to bring on our first team member outside of the family to help support the next stage of the business.
This is a hands-on Sales & Administration Assistant role with a mix of customer service, sales support, order processing, administration and light shop/dispatch duties.
You’ll be someone who is organised, switched on, confident speaking with customers, comfortable working independently and able to stay on top of lots of small moving parts without needing constant follow-up.
What you’ll be doing
Your day-to-day responsibilities will include:
- Monitoring and responding to customer emails and phone enquiries
- Assisting customers with general product and sales enquiries
- Processing orders through Shopify
- Raising and managing invoices
- Monitoring orders and helping ensure nothing is missed or delayed
- Following up internal order requirements and prompting the team where action is needed
- Supporting walk-in customers at our Smeaton Grange shop
- Maintaining shop presentation and keeping the front area tidy and organised
- Monitoring stock levels and advising management when items are running low
- Reordering stock when directed or required
- Assisting with minor order dispatch and small warehouse tasks
- General administration and internal support duties
- Helping keep systems, emails and routine tasks organised and up to date
This is not a heavy warehouse role, however you should be comfortable occasionally lifting and moving stock items of up to approximately 10 kg.
Systems experience is essential
You must already be confident using:
- Microsoft Outlook and Teams
- Microsoft Office
- Xero
Experience with Shopify is highly regarded.
We are looking for someone who can step into these systems confidently. This is not a role where we will be providing basic computer training.
You’ll suit this role if you are
- Highly organised and detail-focused
- Strong with written English and professional email communication
- Confident speaking with customers on the phone and in person
- Friendly, outgoing and approachable
- Calm under pressure
- Able to work at a fast pace
- Independent and able to take ownership of tasks
- Comfortable taking direction and acting on feedback
- Assertive enough to follow things up when required
- Reliable and consistent
- Able to prioritise without needing every task explained step by step
- A fast learner who can understand and differentiate between a broad range of products and specifications
Fire industry experience is not required.
You will be supported while learning our product range, however you will need to be capable of picking up product information quickly and accurately. Our range includes many similar products with different specifications, so attention to detail is extremely important.
AI capability
We actively use AI tools within the business and are looking for someone who is comfortable using them as a genuine productivity tool.
You should be able to use AI to help you work faster,
research, organise information and improve efficiency — while still being able to think independently, write clearly and communicate professionally without relying on generic AI-generated responses.
Good judgement matters more to us than simply knowing how to copy and paste prompts.
About the role
This is an on-site position, five days per week in Smeaton Grange.
- Monday to Friday
- 7:00am start
- Full-time
- Six-month probation period
- Immediate start preferred, however we are flexible for the right person
There is limited on-site parking, however street parking is available less than a one-minute walk from the office.
We operate from a newly fitted-out office and shopfront complex on Anderson Road, with new and contemporary desks and facilities. We are located next to a café and directly across from an Ampol service station, with easy access to everyday essentials.
Growth opportunity
Prime Fire Supplies is still a young business, and this role has genuine opportunity to grow with us.
As the business develops, there is potential to move further into areas such as:
- Sales
- E-commerce
- Account management
- Operations
- Administration
- Business support
Because this is our first external hire, the right person will have the opportunity to become an important part of the business as we continue to grow.
How to apply
Please apply through SEEK with your resume.
We also strongly encourage applicants to email a short introduction and cover letter to:
*****@primefiresupplies.com.au
In your introduction, please tell us:
- why this role interests you; and
- one practical way you currently use AI to work more efficiently.
Shortlisted applicants should expect a brief phone screening, followed by a short Teams interview before an in-person interview.
