Offer description

Are you a natural leader with a passion for operational excellence and commercial growth? This is your chance to take the reins of a thriving depot within our nationwide Plant & Tool Division—where your decisions make a real impact every day.

As General Manager, you won't just manage - you'll own your Profit Centre, shape strategy, and lead a high-performing team to deliver exceptional service to customers across construction, utilities, and infrastructure. If you're ready to combine leadership with hands‑on business influence in a fast‑paced, growing industry, this is the role for you.


What Success Looks Like

* Leading and developing your depot team to drive performance and exceed customer expectations
* Managing your own Profit Centre, influencing all aspects of depot operations—from recruitment and training to purchasing equipment and supplies
* Identifying opportunities to grow revenue with new and existing customers
* Ensuring quality and compliance through audits and regular customer visits


Around You

* Proven operational management experience, ideally within the construction or hire industry
* Strong leadership skills with the ability to build and motivate a high‑performing team
* Commercial acumen, including experience managing P&L and spotting business development opportunities
* Knowledge of Plant & Tool equipment and the local customer base (highly beneficial)
* Excellent attention to detail and problem‑solving skills
