Why Proferlo
We’re a small, fast-growing furniture business. The team is lean, everyone owns their work, and there are no corporate layers slowing things down. We work directly with our own manufacturing partners instead of going through resellers. That gives us a level of control over our products and supply chain that most businesses our size don’t have, and plenty of room to grow as we scale.
Join now and you won’t be employee #400 doing one narrow task. You’ll see exactly how your work moves the business forward: every order you get out the door, every problem you fix, every improvement you suggest. If you’re driven and want to grow quickly alongside a business that’s doing the same, this is the opportunity.
The job
You’ll spend most of your week in the warehouse. Our furniture is big and heavy, and most orders ship in several cartons, so getting every order out complete and on time takes real skill. The rest of your time is at the desk: booking deliveries, updating orders, answering customer questions and sorting things out when something goes wrong.
If you spot a better way to do something, tell us. There’s a good chance we’ll say “great, let’s do that.”
What you’ll be doing
In the warehouse
- Picking, packing and preparing multi-carton orders for courier pickup
- Unloading containers and receiving new stock
- Keeping stock locations and counts accurate
- Checking returns and damaged goods, and recording what happened
- Keeping the warehouse tidy and protected
At the desk
- Booking courier pickups and updating orders in Shopify
- Answering customer emails and calls about orders and deliveries
- Chasing up missing parts, damage claims and delivery issues until they’re resolved
- Keeping records and stock information up to date
You’ll suit this job if you:
- Have experience in a warehouse, dispatch, logistics or another hands-on role
- Are fit and happy doing physical work.
You’ll regularly move cartons up to 35kg, and bigger pieces are equipment assisted lifts or two-person lifts.
- Are careful. Sending the wrong carton means an unhappy customer and an expensive return trip.
- Are comfortable on a computer and can write a clear, friendly email
- Would rather sort out a problem than wait to be told what to do
- Are available at least 3 days a week, Monday to Friday
Furniture or homewares experience, or a customer service background would all be a big plus.
What you get
- $34–38/hr casual rate + super, depending on experience
- Weekday hours, no weekends our open times are Monday to Friday 9am to 4pm
- A small team where your ideas actually get used
- More hours or a permanent role for the right person as we grow (performance review every 12 months)
