Our busy workshop is looking for a Part’s Coordinator. Surrounded by a friendly team of like-minded individuals, the successful candidate will be working alongside our Workshop Foreman, with weekly tasks including ordering and tracking parts, collecting parts from town, inventory recording and stocktake using our digital data base.
About us:
We’re a family-owned and operated farming and contracting enterprise, specialising in professional harvest, tillage and sowing services. Based in Mingay Victoria, we are 1 hour from Ballarat, 1.5 hours from Geelong and 2 hours from Melbourne. This position would be ideal for someone desiring a quieter lifestyle away from the urban rush, without sacrificing accessibility to key city centres.
Our in-house mechanics, team leaders and operators service all our machinery in our professionally run workshop. We are a loyal business who has built long-term relationships with our clients and suppliers, providing ample opportunities for our Parts Coordinator to build and grow these solid relationships. Our team is built off great culture and a very supportive environment.
The Ideal Candidate:

- Strong organisational skills to ensure day-to-day running of our parts is efficient and traceable.
- Basic computer skills to track budgets, invoices, excel spreadsheets etc.
- Great communication skills to speak with suppliers over the phone.

What the role entails:
The successful candidate will be responsible for everything and anything to do with our parts, including:
- Ordering parts based off provided pre-season lists and requests from team leaders & managers. Most of our suppliers are in Ballarat!
- Returning parts that may have been supplied incorrectly. Keeping track of returns and refunds.
- Retrieving parts – Most of our suppliers are in Ballarat or within a 100km radius. Parts runs usually happen twice a week, sometimes more if urgent parts are required to keep our workshop running efficiently.
- During peak seasons, transporting parts to paddocks locally (approx. 100km radius)
- Regular stocktake of parts, especially before each season, ensuring parts are ordered ahead of time and quantities stay above set quotas.
- Keeping the parts system organised in our workshop and parts trailer, using the digital system with barcode tracking etc.
- Regular market research giving us confidence that we are receiving competitive pricing
