About us

We’re on a mission to create a brighter future, where you can be a change maker at the actual source. We’re one of Australia’s largest water utilities with over 30% of Victoria’s population relying on us for their essential water and sanitation services.

Our award-winning culture fosters an inclusive, collaborative, and flexible environment that enables our people to thrive. Here, you’ll be inspired and challenged to grow alongside us.

We're committed to reconciliation and supporting the self-determined role for Traditional Owners / Custodians in water and land management.

The Role

As the Inventory Officer, your work will directly reduce service disruption risks and strengthen our operational resilience. You will oversee the full lifecycle of our inventory from procurement and quality assurance to financial management and supplier engagement, all while ensuring strict compliance with safety and security requirements.

You will be involved in establishing a new, centralised approach to inventory management, ensuring our key operational assets are supported by reliable, well-maintained, and accessible stock.

Your key responsibilities

  • Overseeing the condition, security, and compliance of all physical stores. You'll monitor stock levels, track usage trends, manage obsolescence, and conduct regular stocktakes and reconciliations.
  • Supporting the transition of decentralised stock into central control and championing initiatives that promote innovation, sustainability, and best practice.
  • Managing the financial performance of the inventory function, including budgeting, forecasting, expenditure tracking, and reporting.
  • Maintaining accurate data within our asset and inventory management systems. You will provide reports and insights on performance and risks to inform decision-making.
  • Fostering strong, positive relationships with key suppliers, internal stakeholders, and maintenance contractors. This includes managing procurement processes, negotiation, and monitoring supply chain performance.
  • What we’re looking for

  • Ability to independently plan, prioritise, and coordinate multiple competing tasks.
  • Proficiency with inventory or asset management systems.
  • Intermediate financial management experience, particularly in budget tracking and expenditure reporting.
  • Proven experience in supplier engagement, procurement, negotiation, and sourcing.
  • Strong ability to analyse data to identify inefficiencies, manage risks, and implement improvements.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills, ability to work with ambiguity and to implement continuous improvement initiatives.
  • General computer competency for data entry, spreadsheets, and communications.
