Purchasing Manager – Electrical Contractor (Simpro)
Definitive Electrical | Logan / Brisbane southside, plus 1–2 days a week at our Narangba office | Full time

Own purchasing across two warehouses for a busy, growing electrical contractor. Simpro experience a big plus.

About us

Definitive Electrical is a residential electrical contractor wiring new homes for some of South East Queensland's biggest volume builders. We run two warehouses – one on the southside and one at Narangba – keeping our crews stocked and on site across Brisbane, Logan and Moreton Bay. We're a tight team that backs our people, invests in training, and gets things done without the drama.

The role

We're looking for a Purchasing Manager to take ownership of all purchasing across both warehouses. You'll work side by side with our Warehouse Officer – the two of you are the purchasing team – making sure the right materials are ordered, priced right and on hand when our sparkies need them.

Would suit people with warehousing & purchasing experience from the electrical wholesalers

Day to day you'll be:

- Handling all ordering from our external suppliers, including quantity orders for upcoming jobs

- Liaising with suppliers on pricing structures and making sure we're getting the best deal

- Taking and placing internal material orders from our electricians and apprentices

- Raising and managing purchase orders in Simpro

- Running the end-of-month stocktake across both warehouses and reporting the end-of-month materials value

- Working with the Warehouse Officer to keep stock levels,



deliveries and job kits running smoothly

- Building solid working relationships with our suppliers and our team on the tools

You'll be based at our southside warehouse, with 1–2 days a week at our Narangba office.

About you

- Purchasing, procurement or stock control experience – ideally in electrical, trades or construction supply

- Simpro experience is a big advantage, or you've used a similar job management / purchasing system and pick things up fast

- Personable – you'll be dealing with suppliers, tradies and office staff all day and need to get along with all of them

- Able to prioritise – multiple crews, multiple jobs, multiple suppliers, and it all needs to land in the right order

- A team player who works well alongside others and communicates clearly

- Organised and accurate – purchase orders, pricing and stock counts need to be right

- Knowledge of electrical materials is a bonus, but not essential if you have the purchasing background

What we offer

- Competitive salary

- Full-time, stable role with a growing company that isn't slowing down

- Real ownership of purchasing – you'll run it, not just process it

- A supportive, down-to-earth team that looks after its people

- Two locations, so a bit of variety in your week
