Job Description

  • Join a stable, experienced inbound team where service comes first and sales follows naturally
  • Build genuine commercial and cross-sell skills in a fast-paced, people-focused contact centre
  • Melbourne based | 4 days a wk in CBD office, one day WFH

Join a team that's All Kinds of Useful

At Origin, being useful is more than a tagline - it’s how we approach work every day. As a collective, we’re a team that thrives on finding better ways, working together, and owning our impact. From powering homes to delivering award-winning internet and helping to lead Australia’s energy transition. If you’re driven by purpose and excited to be part of something bigger, we’d love to have you on the journey.

About the role:

The LPG Business Sales Centre is the first point of contact for more than 30,000 existing SME customers, and for new customers looking to get set up.

As a Business Sales Consultant, based in Melbourne, you’ll take inbound calls covering everything from new site set-ups and pricing questions to service issues and account queries – it’s a role built on service first, with sales opportunities that come from genuinely helping the customer in front of you, rather than chasing a target list. You’ll join a small, close-knit inbound team, led by a manager with a long history in LPG, where experience runs deep and new starters are given real time to learn the ropes.

Most conversations cover pricing, supporting customers through the delivery scheduling process, and helping them understand their invoice or bill. You’ll work closely with the outbound and field sales teams, building the kind of rapport that turns a single call into a longer relationship.

Why this role matters?

This role sits right at the front line of Origin’s LPG customer experience – every call is a chance to keep a business customer with Origin, or win a new one over. You’ll help the LPG Commercial Sales team work toward its ambition of leading market share nationally, while making sure customers genuinely feel looked after.

It’s also a great place to build commercial skills: you’ll spot genuine opportunities to cross-sell across other Origin products, and develop the kind of service-led sales instinct that’s transferable across the business.

What will you bring?

  • A strong customer focus – you genuinely want to understand what the customer needs and think it through to the right solution, not just move to the next call
  • Experience in a phone-based sales or service role, or equivalent customer-facing experience – LPG knowledge isn’t required, we’ll teach you that
  • Commercial curiosity, with the judgement to spot genuine opportunities to add value for the customer
  • Resilience, energy and a positive attitude, ready to bring that into an office-based team environment
