Meet: Partmax
Founded: 2022
Industry: 2-sided marketplace, automotive
Stage: recently launched ??
The Story
You know what happens when the little guys pull together? That's right - they're not so little anymore. Everyone loves an Aussie success story and we all know the underdog wins the day.
Let me set the scene - there's currently 2 big players in the automotive parts scene and there's very little incentive for them to provide enhanced service and value to the mechanics who rely on them for supplies.
Be part of a true David and Goliath story as Partmax faces them head on + raises the bar. They're banding together an amazingly large spread of independent auto-part stores and connecting them directly with your favourite local mechanics with their new platform!
Partmax's 2 sided marketplace is easy to use and with just a click, you can find a heap of matching parts on offer nearby and in your hands in a matter of hours the same-day. There's lots more to it as well - with easy search features and an integrated financing solution - but at its core, it's all about connecting small businesses together to create a win-win scenario.
Partmax has just launched in Melbourne's West and the feedback from users has been stellar. With an inspiring founder and a top tier Advisory Team from the likes of ex-REA - they're planning to grow. Fast. This is where you come in…
The Role
As Partmax's first Business Development Manager you will cement Partmax's user base across Melbourne's Western Suburbs. You'll follow existing leads and develop your own connections as you sign-up businesses to join the platform and build out those connections into long standing relationships.

This is an industry you want to be in. Maybe you've worked in the auto sector already? Or maybe you're just really into cars? Or maybe you're passionate about supporting mum-and-pop businesses?
You've got some proven runs on the board but are still on your BDM journey with something to prove. You're confident working independently and approaching businesses - bonus points for small to medium businesses - but will also grow at Partmax with support from others in the business.
You're a giver not a taker. That humble and helpful energy you give off is what's going to get these mechanics to trust you and the Partmax product.
You're tech savvy. You're able to sign people up and show them how to use the marketplace platform with ease + have experience using CRMs. You have a good eye for detail too - Partmax's system is so easy to use that you can sign someone up in minutes, but it's vital all the info is correct.
