01About the Company
Smart Suites manages a portfolio of over 100 rooms for short-term vacation rentals across Rocklea, Sunnybank, Acacia Ridge, Carina, and Kuraby in Queensland, Australia. Guided by our core values of Customer Obsession, Ownership, Curiosity, Humility, Efficiency, and Teamwork (COCHET), we are committed to delivering exceptional hospitality experiences to every guest. Smart Suites is an AI-driven company that continuously adopts and integrates advanced technology, automation, and digital tools to improve efficiency, decision-making, and customer satisfaction. We are looking for team members who are equally passionate about using AI tools, data-driven insights, and digital systems to strengthen operations and service delivery. At Smart Suites, we aim to ensure every guest stay is not only clean and comfortable, but also thoughtfully managed and personalized in a way that leaves a lasting impression. Know how to spot a good used-car deal? We are looking for an experienced automotive professional to find vehicles overseas, primarily in Japan, and coordinate their import, preparation and resale in Australia. You will work remotely from the Philippines, partnering with auction agents, exporters, shipping providers and Australian mechanics and service providers.

Find vehicles through auctions, dealers and exporter networks.
Assess vehicle condition, repair needs and resale potential.
Calculate total costs and recommend a maximum buying price.
Coordinate imports, repairs, transport and preparation for sale.

Practical knowledge of mechanical issues, accident damage and repair costs.
Ability to interpret auction sheets and recognize risky purchases.
Strong commercial judgement, organization and communication skills.
Confidence working independently with spreadsheets and online tools.
Japanese auction experience is highly valued. Australian import knowledge is an advantage. Japanese fluency is helpful but not essential if you can reliably interpret and verify vehicle information. What is on offer Full-time work from home in the Philippines.
Fixed monthly pay of 1,300, 1,500 AUD, depending on experience.
Commission equal to 5% of realized net profit per qualifying completed vehicle sale, subject to agreed terms.
