Shade Australia

Are you an ambitious, clever and driven individual? Have you just graduated from University and are looking for a great opportunity. Do you have the ability to engage others and not just talk but also listen? Then we might have the job for you! 

YOUR NEW EMPLOYER 

Shade Australia is a multi-award winning family business  with over 25+ years of success. We are a tight and very experienced team with most employees having been with us for years and years. 

We are based in SW Sydney on the M5 which, these days, is an easy commute from Sydney. 

We have a small but close-knit team, and we pride ourselves in offering a fun and supportive workplace.  We value a willingness to learn over experience and we provide ongoing support and training to anyone who comes on board. 

YOUR NEW ROLE 

Firstly – this is a fantastic job, with tremendous potential for growth. 

Working closely with the GM, you will be taking inbound calls, SMS and emails, and conducting showroom sales.  

As a small team we encourage everyone to work to their strengths and interests so there is a lot of potential for involvement in other parts of the business.  

Key responsibilities for the role are to help us achieve another 2000 independent Five Star Reviews on Trustpilot by 

• Committing to learn and understand our entire product range and offerings; 
• Producing and issuing accurate quotations for the right product  
• Learning and understanding logistics 
• Handling inbound sales calls; 
• Showroom sales; 
• Processing orders; and 
• Related matters such as contributing toward marketing and sales material and campaigns. 

WHY YOU WILL LOVE THIS JOB 

• You will be fully supported in training and provision of resources on an ongoing basis; 
• Unlimited potential for progression within the business, including outside of sales. Show us what you’re good at, tell us your career aspirations and we’ll help you achieve them; 
• You will be working for a market leader in the industry with long-term career prospects; 
• Competitive base salary with an excellent performance-based commission structure; 
• You want a role with variety, the opportunity to troubleshoot solutions and a workplace where thinking outside the box is welcomed; 
• Be part of a supportive and inclusive culture 

WHY WE WILL LOVE YOU 

• You listen and ask lots of questions, and are a curious, engaged person; 
• You are clever; 
• You are articulate, write well and can spell (and we can tell when you rely on AI for that) 
• Speaking of AI, you’re a bit tech savvy and are a quick study with new programs;  
• You love Excel; 
• You pay attention to detail; 
• You have a University Degree or 2+ years of professional experience (not necessarily in sales); 
• You have a technical ability or a high commercial acumen with a positive attitude; 

We believe in living our organisations’ values, and at Shade, the culture is all about loving the work we do and the people we work with; we never take ourselves too seriously and always make time for a laugh! Balance between work and home is always a priority. We work hard but we like to have fun along the way.  

If this role sounds like what you’re looking for, don't write a 'to whom this may concern” application. Instead send us a cover letter addressed to Nikki Mathews (General Manager) with your resume, tell us about yourself and why this is your job.
