GPH Builders Merchants Ltd is seeking an experienced and ambitious Branch Manager / Plumbing & Heating Manager to lead and grow our Stonehaven branch.
This is a unique opportunity to manage an established and successful builders merchant branch, servicing customers in South Aberdeenshire, while also developing a major new growth area in Plumbing & Heating across the North East of Scotland.
The role combines:
* Management of an existing general merchant branch serving trade and retail customers
* Development of a specialist Plumbing & Heating offering targeting trade professionals across a wider North East of Scotland region

The company now plans to expand and strengthen this area further with the skills, experience and leadership of the successful candidate.
We are looking for someone with the drive and commercial ability to help develop both the Stonehaven branch and the wider Plumbing & Heating division into a major contributor to the future growth of the business.
