Premium Furniture & Homewares
Horgans is a second-generation premium wholesale furniture and homewares business, supplying Australia’s leading interior designers, property stylists, developers, and accommodation operators for over 40 years. With showrooms in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Perth, we are known for our curated aesthetic, enduring supplier partnerships, and uncompromising approach to quality.
Why Horgans
A genuine foundation in premium product
You will work directly alongside our Buying Manager and leadership team, gaining hands-on exposure to global sourcing, range development, and the commercial thinking behind a design-led wholesale business. Few junior roles offer this level of access.
Your eye will shape what our customers see
Visual merchandising at Horgans is not a background task. Our showrooms are our brand. You will have real responsibility for how product is presented across four national locations, with the scope to develop your own aesthetic voice within a refined, consistent framework.
