• Darwin based Graduate Program

The Company
 
MM Electrical Merchandising (MMEM) are the Australian leader in the electrical wholesale industry. With over 250 branch locations across Australia and over 2,000 passionate employees, MMEM continue to experience significant growth with over 100 years of operation. Their success is a result of an ability to build strong customer relationships, demonstrate industry knowledge and provide a high level of service.
 
MMEM are committed to developing the future leaders of their business, and in order to support future growth plans, they are looking for graduates who are interested in a diverse career in business management.
 
MMEM's unique business model is based on a decentralized structure, treating each of their branch locations essentially as a separate business. This business model allows managers to essentially run their own business, while having the support of being part of a national business and be rewarded through their profit share scheme.
 

The Opportunity
 
This is not your average cookie cutter graduate program. It is a unique, hands-on role where you will work from the ground up, completing a number of structured rotations through the various positions within the branch.
 
Over the course of the program, you will gain an intimate understanding of the operations of the business first hand, the diverse range of industries that MMEM supply to and the fundamentals of how to run a successful business.
 
Rotating between the different Darwin based branches, you will be exposed to a variety of management styles and business development strategies, enabling you to gain a solid grounding in all aspects of team building, sales and management.
 
In order to consolidate prior learning, training and development will also be provided throughout the course of the program, as well as mentorship from senior leaders and managers within the business.
 
You will be encouraged to think differently, challenge the status quo, and bring a fresh set of eyes to our business, and upon successful completion you will be considered for the role of business manager, where you will be responsible for managing one of the businesses as if it were your own.
 

Essential criteria
 
Ideally, you will have a passion for sales and business development, with a desire to become a successful leader in a dynamic environment.
 
The ideal candidate will have:

• Recently completed a degree or be in their final semester of study
• A genuine love of building relationships and networking with people
• A desire and passion for leadership opportunities. Whether in social situations, sports, university or work, you naturally fall into roles of leadership.
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment
• Drive and enthusiasm for long term career success and be willing to put in hard work to accelerate their career
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Resilience and be adaptive, there is no such thing as a typical day!

Such an opportunity is not for everyone, but if you are looking for a diverse yet rewarding career in business management with a supportive organisation that values and rewards its employees, please apply below.
