Purchasing Officer (School Hours)

9:00 am to 2:30 pm, Monday to Friday

In office in Dandenong South

About iBulk

We manufacture equipment that sieves, dries and moves powders and granules. Our customers are in the food, pharmaceutical, mining, and recycling sectors.

We're a privately owned manufacturer with fewer than 20 people, and most of our team have been with us for a long time.

The Hours and Pay

- 25 hours per week: 9:00 am to 2:30 pm, Monday to Friday

- $38 to $43 per hour plus super, depending on experience (equivalent to $75,000 to $85,000 full-time)

- Permanent part-time role with paid leave and super

- If different start or finish times would suit you better, or you'd like more hours in the future, let us know

When You Apply

Please include a few lines answering this question: Tell us about a time a supplier let you down and what you did about it.

What You'll Do

- Raise purchase orders and work orders in our ERP system, Sybiz, and follow them through to delivery

- Monitor stock levels and reorder before supplies run low

- Speak with suppliers about pricing, lead times and late deliveries

- Receipt goods against orders and resolve price or quantity discrepancies with our accounts team

- Track overseas shipments with freight forwarders and customs brokers, and keep the paperwork in order

- Keep production, engineering and sales teams informed about incoming deliveries

We build custom equipment, so much of what we buy is specific to a job. Our engineers will provide clear parts lists for each project. You don't need to read engineering drawings.

What We're Looking For





Two things matter most to us:

- Purchasing experience: at least two years of raising orders, dealing with suppliers, and keeping stock moving. Experience in manufacturing, engineering, wholesale or trade supply is all relevant.

- A good attitude: you're reliable, work well with others, and ask questions when something doesn't look right.

- You’ll need the right to work in Australia

Useful, But Not Essential

If you have either of these, please mention it:

- Imports and exports: experience dealing with overseas suppliers, freight forwarders, customs brokers, and shipping documentation

- Stock management: experience setting minimum stock levels and reorder points, and managing supplier minimum order quantities and values

What We Can Teach You

- Sybiz: if you've used any ERP or accounting system for purchasing, you'll pick it up quickly

- Imports: if you haven't handled overseas shipments before, we'll show you how

- Our products and suppliers: the person who has managed purchasing here for years is staying with the business and will train you

If you have most of this experience but not all of it, please apply anyway.

Working in a Small Team

- You'll work directly with the Managing Director, and if you see a better way of doing something, we want to hear it

- We work as a team. Occasionally that means covering for each other, and the team will do the same for you
