Description

Adelaide, SA | Full Time | Permanent

Help build Australia’s next generation of quantum technology.

At QuantX Labs, we’re developing world-leading quantum sensing and precision timing technologies that are shaping the future of defence, space and critical infrastructure.

Behind every breakthrough is a team making sure the right parts are in the right place at the right time. That’s where you come in. We’re looking for an organised, proactive Stores & Materials Coordinator to support our engineers and production teams by managing purchasing, inventory and material flow. You’ll play a vital role in keeping our projects moving, ensuring components are available when they’re needed and helping turn cutting-edge ideas into real-world products.

This is an opportunity to work in a collaborative, high-performing environment where your contribution is visible and genuinely matters.

 What you’ll be doing

You’ll be responsible for keeping materials moving across the business by:

  • Managing purchase orders from request through to delivery
  • Building strong relationships with suppliers and monitoring delivery schedules
  • Receiving, inspecting and storing incoming materials
  • Maintaining accurate inventory and stock records
  • Preparing kits and issuing materials to production and engineering teams
  • Coordinating outgoing shipments and logistics
  • Monitoring stock levels and proactively managing replenishment
  • Identifying supply risks and helping resolve material shortages
  • Supporting continuous improvement of stores, purchasing and inventory processes

 

What we’re looking for

You’ll thrive in this role if you have:

  • Experience in purchasing, stores, inventory or materials coordination
  • Experience working in a manufacturing, engineering or technical environment
  • Strong organisational skills and exceptional attention to detail
  • A proactive approach to problem solving and following up suppliers
  • Experience using inventory, ERP or purchasing systems
  • The ability to manage multiple priorities while maintaining accuracy
  • A collaborative approach and excellent communication skills

Experience with quality management systems such as ISO9001 or qualifications in warehousing, logistics or business administration are advantageous but not essential.

Why join QuantX Labs?

  • Work on technology making a real impact across defence, space and critical infrastructure
  • Join a collaborative team where your ideas are valued
  • See products progress from research and development through to deployment
  • Be part of Australia’s growing quantum technology industry
  • Enjoy a modern workplace at Adelaide’s Lot Fourteen innovation precinct
  • Grow your career alongside leading scientists, engineers and technical specialists

If you’re someone who enjoys bringing order to complexity, takes pride in accuracy and wants to be part of something genuinely innovative, we’d love to hear from you.

Apply now and help us build the future of quantum technology.
