Run the place. Protect the magic.

A founder led Perth trade and wholesale manufacturer, with customer service most businesses only talk about, is taking its consumer sales to the next level with a game-changing new online store. The founders want to work on the business, not in it. That's where you come in.

Keys to the building, not the stationery cupboard

Nobody here needs another person to manage. They need someone who walks in, takes the operation and the people, and runs it. You'll lead a team of around 15 and report to the two founders. You'll work closely with the founders at first, then take more and more off their plate. You have the confidence, nous and logic to solve the problem in front of you, and the sense to ask for guidance early, then go and fix it yourself.

Your days, unfiltered

No two days look the same, and that's the appeal. One minute you're juggling a production run, the next you're sorting a customer's dream order before it's due out the door.

- Run it from the floor to the front door: production, dispatch, customer service and every moving part in between

- Move people to where the work is, ride the peaks and troughs, and make the quiet times count

- Know what production costs, what it should cost, and close the gap

- Protect a customer experience that already gives people a reason to come back, and lift it as online orders grow

- Bring a team of creative specialists together so they pull in one direction

- Keep the founders across everything without them having to ask

- Guard the quality, because "good enough" never leaves the building

The kind of person who reads this and grins

Your title matters less to me than how you lead, how you think and how you treat people. If this list sounds like your last few performance reviews, we should talk.

- People first,



with real emotional intelligence and genuine curiosity about the people you lead

- You treat every customer like they're the only one

- You ask why before you suggest how

- You think like an owner, and growth excites you rather than rattles you

- You call it early when something is slipping, and close the loop every time

- Production schedules do not scare you

Your background could be in manufacturing, operations, logistics, hospitality or another customer focused business. What matters is how you lead.

Why this one's worth leaving for

Valuable roles are easy to find. Roles where you can see your own work in the business every single day are not.

- You'll sit beside two founders, not under a hierarchy

- Your fingerprints will be on everything from week one

- You'll be there for the online store launch and everything that grows from it

- The product is beautiful, and you'll be proud of it

The business generally operates from 7:30 am to 4:00 pm, offering a working pattern that supports life outside work. As the person responsible for the day to day operation, you will bring the flexibility and judgement needed to manage occasional later conversations and changing priorities. It is a role built around ownership and outcomes.

From hello to hired

Apply through SEEK with your resume and a short cover letter addressed to me, Amy Morgan.

Tell me about the team you are proudest of leading, and what you did to get there.

No essay needed, just the story. I read every application myself, so you will hear from a real person.

If it feels like a fit, we will have a proper chat, then meet for coffee, then you will meet the founders.

Everything stays confidential, and your current employer will never hear about it from me.
