What's in it for you?
This is a rare opportunity to step into a national leadership role within a market leading company; an organisation with brand strength, infrastructure, and process in place. You will inherit a service operation that is performing well, with plenty of scope to implement additional best-practice process and exploit pockets of opportunity.

You will step into managing a team with a solid culture and have the backing of your GM, who thinks strategically, listens, and provides you with significant autonomy. The role sits at the intersection of operational leadership, commercial growth, and digital transformation, meaning no two days will look the same.

What you'll do

• Lead a nationally dispersed field service team of approximately 40 technicians, supported by state managers, supervisors, planners, and a small admin team
• Drive P&L performance across an $15M service operation, improving utilisation, reducing costs, and building a clear pathway to increased revenue and profitability
• Identify and pursue segment growth opportunities, expanding the service contracts business and maintaining penetration in sectors where the business is strongly positioned
• Champion and advance the digital transformation agenda, including ongoing refinement of field service management software and the application of AI and data to drive efficiency
• Lead the spare parts function, ensuring technicians have the right parts, at the right place, at the right time
• Embed and sustain a proactive safety culture across all field operations, with WHS compliance as a non-negotiable priority
• Partner with your cross-functional leadership peers to align service delivery with broader business strategy

Who you are

• Proven senior leader with 10 or more years in field service and operations
• Commercially sharp, with P&L experience and the ability to read a service business through data and financials
• Confident with digital tools and transformation, including field service management platforms
• A communicator who moves between the field and the boardroom with ease, building deep relationships at every level, resulting in effective execution of new strategies and process
• Suitable qualified in a trade, engineering, or commerce discipline
• Firm, fair, and consultative leadership style, with a track record of building accountable, high-performing teams
• Based in Sydney or willing to relocate, with the ability to travel interstate regularly
