General Manager - VIC, ACT & SA | uPVC Windows & Doors
$170,000 – $210,000 per year + Performance Bonus
Run three states.
Build the future of Australian window manufacturing.
Spartan Double Glazing is a national uPVC window and door manufacturer operating across Victoria, the ACT, South Australia and Tasmania.
We design, manufacture and install premium double-glazed uPVC windows and doors in-house, end to end, from raw Aluplast profile through to a finished job signed off on site.
We are not a distributor.
We are not a reseller.
We build it, we install it, we stand behind it for ten years.
Strength.
Discipline.
No Compromise.
THE OPPORTUNITY
We are appointing a General Manager for Victoria, with operational oversight of our ACT and South Australian branches.
You will be based at our Abbotsford head office alongside our Melbourne manufacturing plant, and you will report directly to the Directors.
This is the number two seat in a fast-moving national business.
You will own the P&L;, the plant, the people and the promise we make to every customer.
If you have been running a branch and waiting for someone to hand you the whole thing, this is it.
WHAT YOU WILL OWN
Full operational and financial accountability for Victoria, with oversight of the ACT and SA branches
Direct leadership of the Installation Manager and Production Manager, and through them the factory, install, service and admin teams
Manufacturing performance: throughput, quality gates, on-time dispatch, waste, and 5S discipline at every station on the floor
Customer experience end to end, including escalations and service calls, and the standard that says a Spartan job is finished properly or it is not finished
Recruitment, performance management, coaching and, where necessary, exits, handled to Fair Work standards and documented properly
Margin protection:



pricing discipline, job costing, labour and material variance, and the weekly numbers that tell you the truth
KPI ownership across every team, with real accountability behind it, not a spreadsheet nobody opens
Systems and procedures: writing them, embedding them, and making them stick across three states
Rollout and adoption of our in-house software platform.
You will be the person who makes current technology land on the floor.
THE TECHNOLOGY
Most window manufacturers run on paper, whiteboards and off-the-shelf software that half fits.
We built our own.
SpartanCAD, our in-house 3D CAD and quoting engine that designs a window, costs it and drops it straight into the factory
Spartan CRM, one platform covering Sales, Jobs, Factory, Accounts and Service
A livemanufacturing execution systemacross the production floor with station-level visibility from cut to dispatch
Field and installer appsthat push the daily run, checklists, photos and sign-offs from the office to the van
Aclient portalthat keeps customers informed without a single chase call
You will not be fighting your systems.
You will be running the best operating stack in Australian fenestration, and you will help shape where it goes next.
WHAT YOU BRING
Proven leadership in uPVC or aluminium windows and doors, glazing, joinery or building products manufacturing.
Direct uPVC experience puts you at the front of the queue.
A track record running a plant or a branch:



production, installation, service and the numbers behind all three
Genuine customer service instinct.
You can turn a furious customer into a referral, and you can teach your team to do the same.
Strong grounding in Lean, 5S and continuous improvement, and the discipline to hold the standard when it gets busy
Comfort with technology and systems.
You do not need to be a developer.
You do need to be the one who champions the software rather than quietly going back to paper.
Confidence with recruitment, performance conversations and Fair Work compliance
Willingness to travel interstate periodically to the ACT and SA branches
Full Australian working rights and a current driver licence
WHAT IS IN IT FOR YOU
Competitive executive package with performance bonus.
We pay properly for the right person.
Fully maintained company vehicle
Direct access to the Directors.
Decisions get made in days, not quarters.
A business that reinvests: new plant, new technology, new branches
The rare chance to take a business you can genuinely influence and put your name on its next stage of growth
