The Role

The Shop Manager will be responsible for the day-to-day operations of the redesigned Postal NSP. The role is responsible for order fulfilment, stock, supplier relationships, cost monitoring, and the data NSW Health requires, and delivers the new model. Decisions on prices, supplier commitments, budget variations and staffing levels are made by the Exec Team on this role's analysis and recommendation.

Key Responsibilities

NSP service operations

• Manage Shopify storefronts: products, approved prices, discounts and standing codes, order limits, shipping zones and enrolment workflows.
• Oversee daily order processing, packing and dispatch; keep turnaround times and error rates within agreed standards.
• Maintaining the enrolment system of service users at risk of BBV infection into the service, screening of new service users, and shipping-fee waivers.
• Resolve service user enquiries about orders, accounts and access promptly and without judgement, referring health and equipment-use questions to the peer worker.
• Ensure that service users are provided with evidence-based resources and harm reduction information
• Working with the Harm Reduction Lead, ensure that the postal NSP is integrated into the overall NSW NSP service

Stock and suppliers

• Manage purchasing from equipment suppliers (Terumo, Embecta, ASP Healthcare and others) and packaging suppliers within approved budgets and maintain stock levels against a rolling forecast.
• Obtain and compare quotes at the volumes the service now buys and recommend supplier selections and negotiated terms to the Harm Reduction Program Lead for approval.
• Manage the packaging system and keep packaging cost per order at or below target.
• Receive deliveries, maintain warehouse organisation, and manage stock rotation and expiry.

Pricing and cost recovery

• Maintain established-cost records for every paid-shop product line: unit cost, postage, packaging and payment fees.
• Monitor revenue per unit and per order; flag erosion early and recommend price or model adjustments to the Harm Reduction Program Lead.
• Implement approved price changes in the paid shop and keep the price list current.
• Monitor expenditure against the assigned shop budget and report monthly on income, cost of goods and postage spend.

Data and reporting

• Produce the reporting NSW Health requires units shipped by shop, BBV service user demographics collected at enrolment, and progress against the distribution KPI.
• Maintain the order classification reporting (BBV-risk, PIED-pattern, peptide-pattern) so the split between funded and cost-recovery activity is clear.
• Maintain a clear picture of shop activity on a monthly basis to ensure that the Postal NSP model remains economically viable
• Protect service user privacy: de-identification before any analysis, and no disclosure of order or enrolment data.

Quality, safety and compliance

• Ensure every paid-shop order ships with the required harm reduction resources and keep product pages current.
• Maintain WHS standards for a warehouse handling sharps and returned equipment.
• Document procedures so the service so that service continuity can be maintained.
• Contribute to consumer consultation on enrolment questions, pricing and service changes.
• Participate in continuous quality improvement activities and contribute to NUAA's accreditation processes

Team

• Supervise and roster warehouse and dispatch staff in line with NUAA supervision guidelines and advise the Harm Reduction Program Lead when order volumes require a staffing change.
• Work with the NUAA peer workers and community so operational decisions on stock, packaging and pricing reflect what service users need.
• Participate in team meetings, supervision, planning processes and training as required.
• Uphold NUAA's values and contribute to a workplace culture of inclusivity, respect, diversity and harm reduction.
• Other duties as reasonably directed by the Harm Reduction Program Lead.
