Junior Account Manager

Totness, Adelaide Hills | $70,000–$85,000 + super | Full-time

Interested in engineering, machinery or manufacturing? Looking for a career where you can learn, build relationships and grow?

We are recruiting for a Junior Account Manager to join an established Australian industrial machinery business in Totness, near Mount Barker.

This is an opportunity for someone early in their career, whether you're a recent graduate, completing a trade, or have experience in customer service, internal sales or a technical environment.

You don't need to know the machinery. You do need to be curious, organised, confident and willing to learn.

About the business

Our client is a privately owned Australian specialist supplying advanced machinery and industrial solutions to the manufacturing sector.

Working with leading international equipment manufacturers, they support customers across Australia in metal processing, steel fabrication, tube and pipe machinery, robotic welding and related industries.

You will join a small, experienced team that values practical problem-solving, customer relationships and people who take ownership of their work.

What you'll be doing

With support and training from experienced colleagues, you will gradually take responsibility for an established portfolio of customers.

Your responsibilities will include

- Building relationships with existing customers across Australia
- Responding to enquiries and following up quotes, orders and customer requests
- Learning about industrial machinery, spare parts, consumables and technical services




- Preparing quotations and communicating professionally with customers and suppliers
- Maintaining accurate customer information using Excel and CRM systems
- Working with international manufacturers and internal technical specialists
- Attending customer visits and machinery demonstrations
- Supporting customers from initial enquiries through to installation and after-sales service

What makes this opportunity different? You will be trained. There is a structured six-to-eight-month learning period to help you understand the equipment, products, customers and systems.

You will inherit established relationships. This is about looking after customers, understanding their needs and earning their trust, not simply cold calling for sales.

You will develop valuable technical knowledge. You will work with specialised machinery and manufacturers that support Australia's engineering and manufacturing industries.

You can build a long-term career. As your confidence and knowledge grow, so will your responsibility for customer accounts.

What we're looking for

You may be a recent university or TAFE graduate, an apprentice finishing your trade, or someone with early experience in customer service, internal sales, trade counters or office administration.





We are particularly interested in people who:

- Communicate confidently and write transparent, professional emails
- Are organised, reliable and follow through on customer requests
- Are comfortable with Excel, including sorting, filtering and basic formulas
- Enjoy learning how technical products and equipment work
- Accept feedback, take initiative and work independently
- Can build genuine relationships with customers and colleagues
- Are comfortable working in a small, direct and experienced team
- Want to develop their skills and grow with a business over the long term

A qualification or experience in engineering, manufacturing, welding, fabrication or a trade would be an advantage, but is not essential. Salary, hours and location
- $70,000–$85,000 plus superannuation, depending on experience
- Permanent, full-time position
- Monday to Friday, 8:00 am–4:30 pm
- Based in Totness, near Mount Barker in the Adelaide Hills
- Local and interstate customer travel as required
- Structured training and mentoring from experienced industry professionals

Ready to build your career? If you're looking for an opportunity to learn something specialised, develop strong customer relationships and become a trusted part of an established business, we'd love to hear from you.
