Adelaide
The Talent Mill AU & NZ - Designer, Luxury, Fashion Retail Recruitment
Posted: 12 February
Offer description

A growing Australian apparel business specialising in high-quality, purpose-built workwear designed for hands‐on and outdoor industries. Built on a foundation of durability, thoughtful design and strong community values, the business creates products that balance performance with personality.

With a focus on premium natural fabrics, practical fit and distinctive design, the company is committed to empowering its customers through clothing that supports demanding work environments while allowing individuality to shine.

The business is growing, and with momentum across ecommerce and broader operations, the leadership team is seeking a commercially minded Business Operations Manager to bring structure, insight, and executional strength across the business.

This is a pivotal role designed to support growth, profitability, and customer experience, while partnering closely with founders to drive smarter operational decision‐making and for the right person it offers autonomy, variety, responsibility, and the chance to make a tangible difference to performance, structure, and long‐term success.

The Role

The Business Operations Manager will sit at the heart of the business, owning day‐to‐day operations while also contributing to strategic and financial oversight. This role requires someone equally comfortable in the detail as they are zooming out connecting financial performance, ecommerce trading results, and operational execution to ensure the business is running efficiently and sustainably.

This is a hands‐on standalone role with real accountability, suited to someone who enjoys rolling up their sleeves, working flexibly, and being deeply invested in the success of the business.

* Ensure systems, processes, and service standards consistently deliver a high‐quality customer experience
* Identify opportunities to improve operational flows that impact customer satisfaction, retention, and brand loyalty

Cross‐Functional & Business Support

* Support founders with ad‐hoc projects, problem‐solving, and operational initiatives

The Skillset

* Strong understanding of business financials, including budgeting, forecasting, and performance analysis
* Hands‐on experience working with ecommerce trading metrics and online sales performance
* Commercially minded, analytical, and comfortable working with numbers and data
* Highly organised with strong attention to detail and follow‐through

Personal Attributes

* Proactive, adaptable, and comfortable working in a fast‐moving, high‐expectation environment
* Customer‐focused, with a genuine interest in improving the end‐to‐end customer experience.
* Confident communicator who can work closely with founders and cross‐functional teams
* Takes ownership and accountability.
* As this role is remote the business needs someone who genuinely cares about the success and future prosperity.
