About the Role

This isn't your average management role. You’ll be the operational backbone of four Auto Masters workshops across South Australia, keeping stores in Norwood, Elizabeth, Munno Para and Gawler running at their best.

Reporting directly to the Franchisee, you'll be the person who connects the dots between performance, people and process. One day you're on the workshop floor supporting a diagnostic challenge, the next you're coaching a store manager through their numbers. No two days look the same and that's exactly what makes this role rewarding.

What You’ll Be Doing

- Drive performance across four locations - supporting stores to hit sales targets and KPIs while upholding the standards that make Auto Masters stand out
- Conduct regular store audits to ensure compliance with franchise agreements, quality assurance standards and all statutory and licensing requirements
- Get hands-on with technical and diagnostic support - your workshop knowledge will be invaluable when training and upskilling the network
- Champion the Auto Masters brand across every store, every visit, every interaction
- Support recruitment, inductions and in-store training to ensure every team member is set up for success
- Be the go-to resource for the AMWOS DMS - training teams and troubleshooting as needed
- Maintain a culture of honesty, efficiency and quality across the entire network

Why you’ll want this role

- Generous salary package commensurate with your experience
- Full tool-of-trade setup: Company car, fuel card, laptop and phone provided
- Four established stores across metropolitan and regional South Australia, giving you real scope and variety in your day
- Formal management training to set you up for long-term success in the role




- A genuine career opportunity with an expanding automotive group that’s invested in growing its people alongside its business

About You

You're not a desk manager. You’re a leader who rolls up their sleeves, earns respect on the floor and knows how to get the best out of people and performance at the same time.

- A background in automotive mechanical trade is highly regarded - the ability to provide real technical support in the field sets you apart (desirable but not essential)
- You understand the numbers (margin, targets, cost control) and know how to use them to drive genuine commercial results across multiple sites
- You lead with energy and approachability; your teams respond to you because you invest in them, not just the outcomes
- You bring proven experience in a multi-site leadership role, with a track record of motivating teams, developing talent and delivering results
- You're solution-focused and calm under pressure. Whether you’re dealing with a franchisee, a store manager or a customer, you show up with the right answer and the right attitude
- A demonstrated history of growing sales and financial performance across multiple automotive service centres is essential - this isn't an entry-level step, it's a role for someone who's already done it

PLEASE NOTE: We cannot accept applications for candidates who are not located in South Australia. This position is not on the sponsored list.

Four stores. One leader. If this role reads like it was written for you - it probably was.
