National Manager - Spare Parts and Distribution

National Manager - Spare Parts and Distribution(Part Sales)

Lead a Business. Build a Team. Drive Growth.

Location: Burwood, Victoria
Reports to: Chief Operating Officer

At Headland Technology, we don't just supply machinery. We help manufacturers across Australia and New Zealand improve productivity, capability, and long‑term performance.

We're looking for an exceptional leader to take ownership of our Spare Parts business and help shape the next stage of its growth. This is not a role for someone who simply manages the status quo. We want someone who thrives on accountability, builds strong relationships, drives commercial outcomes, and genuinely enjoys leading people. Someone with a sales background/ mindset with strong experience in part sales, would do well in this role.

The Opportunity

This is a rare opportunity to lead a significant and growing business unit with responsibility for:

Full P&L; ownership of a large revenue business unit

A team of experienced parts professionals

Strategic internal and external relationships

Critical customer outcomes across Australia and New Zealand

Define the future direction of our parts, tooling and consumables offering

You’ll be responsible for ensuring our customers get the right part, at the right time, with the right level of support—while also driving profitability, efficiency, market growth and continuous improvement across the business.

What You’ll Be Doing

Lead the Business - You’ll take full ownership of the commercial performance of the Spare Parts division, including parts and consumable products.

Lead the Team - You’ll develop and inspire a team that is known for its responsiveness, expertise and customer focus. Creating an environment where people genuinely enjoy coming to work.





Deliver Outstanding Customer Experience – You’re someone who loves working with customers, building trusted relationships, handling complex situations professionally, ensuring consistent and exceptional support throughout every interaction.

Improve and Innovate - You’ll identify where and how we can do things better and, importantly, make it happen.

Partner With OEMs and Suppliers - You’ll build strong relationships with global OEMs and local suppliers, delivering win‑win commercial outcomes.

Who We’re Looking For

Let’s be honest.

We’re not looking for a manager.

We’re looking for a leader.

Someone who naturally takes ownership. Someone who sees a problem and fixes it. Someone who can walk from a strategic planning session into an operational discussion and be equally effective in both.

You’ll likely bring experience from machinery, industrial equipment, manufacturing, technical services, engineering, supply chain or a related industry.

Most importantly, you’ll be the type of person who:

- Leads from the front
- Understands both customers and numbers
- Uses data, not guesswork
- Hold yourself and others accountable
- Enjoys building strong teams
- Isn’t afraid to challenge the way things have always been done
- Follows through on commitments
- Gets energy from achieving results rather than talking about them

What Success Looks Like

Within your first 12 months, you will have:

Strengthened relationships with key customers and OEM partners

Improved inventory performance and availability

Increased revenue and profitability





Enhanced customer experience metrics

Delivered strategic improvement initiatives

Developed a high‑performing and engaged team

Created a more scalable and efficient operation for future growth

About You

Ideally, you’ll have:

Sales experience in specifically part sales

Leadership experience within spare parts, supply chain, operations or a related business

Experience managing commercial outcomes and P&L; performance

Strong inventory and supplier management experience

Customer‑facing leadership experience

Experience with ERP systems (NetSuite experience is a bonus)

A track record of delivering business improvement initiatives and driving change

Relevant qualifications in Business, Supply Chain, Engineering or a related discipline (or equivalent experience)
