Franchise Development & Property Coordinator

Love keeping things organised, moving and on track?

We’re looking for a proactive Franchise Development & Property Coordinator to support franchise resales, renewals, lease administration and property activities across our network.

This is a varied role with plenty of stakeholder contact and no two days looking quite the same. You’ll work with franchise partners, prospective buyers, landlords, agents, advisers and teams across the business, helping coordinate the details and keep important processes moving.

Who are we?

Minor DKL Food Group is a leading Australian retail food franchisor and the Australian subsidiary of Thai-listed Minor International PCL. Our brands include The Coffee Club and Veneziano Coffee, with more than 400 stores across 11 countries and over 5,000 people across our network.

For 35 years, The Coffee Club has been an iconic and much-loved part of Australian café culture. Built around family, friends and meeting customer needs, we have grown into one of the world’s largest Australian café chains while staying true to the welcoming experience our customers know and love.

What is the role?

Working across our Franchise Development and Property functions, you’ll help coordinate franchise resales, renewals, lease administration and property activities across our network. You’ll work closely with franchise partners, prospective buyers, landlords, agents, advisers and internal stakeholders to help keep matters progressing smoothly and on schedule.

This is a varied role where you’ll:

• Coordinate franchise resales, renewals, and transition activities
• Support prospective franchise partners through application and onboarding processes
• Assist with lease administration and property-related matters
• Maintain accurate systems, records, and reporting
• Monitor key milestones, critical dates, and outstanding actions
• Build relationships across a broad range of internal and external stakeholders
• Identify opportunities to improve systems, processes, and stakeholder experience

It’s a great opportunity to build broad experience across franchise development, leasing, property and commercial processes within an established and well-known Australian café group.  

Who are we looking for?

You’re organised, proactive and great with people. You enjoy coordinating moving parts, building relationships and making sure nothing falls through the cracks. You thrive in a fast-paced environment and take pride in delivering high-quality work.

You’ll bring:

• Coordination, administration or project support experience
• Strong organisation and time-management skills
• Excellent stakeholder and communication skills
• High attention to detail and accuracy
• Experience with databases, reporting or CRM systems
• Sound judgement and a proactive approach
• The ability to juggle multiple priorities and deadlines

Experience in franchising, property, leasing, hospitality or retail would be an advantage, but we’re equally interested in people with strong transferable coordination skills and the motivation to learn.

Why should you come work for us?

You’ll join a collaborative and high-energy workplace where ideas are welcomed, people support one another and there is plenty of opportunity to learn.

You’ll also enjoy:

• A varied role spanning franchise development, property and leasing
• Exposure to a broad range of commercial processes and stakeholders
• The opportunity to build your knowledge and capability in an established franchise business
• A modern Southbank office close to public transport and local amenities
• Flexible working arrangements to support work-life balance
• Employer-funded paid parental leave
• Purchased annual leave
• Access to subsidised training and development programs
• Barista-quality coffee every day
