Branch Manager – Sydney - Equipment Hire / Rental

Branch Manager – Equipment Hire & Sales

Private Advertiser | Western Sydney

A sales-led leadership role for an experienced equipment industry professional

An established industrial equipment business is seeking a commercially driven Branch Manager to lead and grow its Sydney operation.

This is first and foremost a commercial growth role.

We are looking for someone with proven sales and business development experience within equipment hire/rental, compressed air, construction or mining equipment, or a closely related industrial equipment market.

You may already be an experienced Branch Manager or Sales Manager. Equally, you may be a successful senior BDM who has developed leadership experience and is ready to take responsibility for a team and broader business performance.

What is key is that you understand B2B equipment sales and/or rental, customer development and new business, and can demonstrate a track record of finding opportunities and turning them into profitable revenue.

This is not an office-bound Branch Manager position. You will lead and coach the team, but you will also remain personally active in the market, by meeting customers, developing opportunities and leading by example.

The role

You will take responsibility for the commercial performance and day-to-day leadership of an established Sydney branch, with a significant opportunity to further develop the NSW business.

Your focus will include:

- Driving branch revenue, margin and profitable growth
- Personally developing recent customers and business opportunities
- Maintaining strong relationships with key customers




- Leading, coaching and supporting sales and operational staff
- Improving sales activity, pipeline development and conversion
- Setting clear expectations and maintaining accountability across the team
- Reviewing commercial performance, margins, costs and branch results
- Identifying current markets, applications and opportunities throughout NSW
- Working alongside the sales team on significant customers and opportunities
- Ensuring the branch delivers a high standard of customer service
- Working closely with senior management on branch strategy and performance

There is genuine management responsibility, but the successful candidate will remain highly visible with customers and in the market.

Leadership in this role is practical. We are looking for someone who can coach others, provide direction and maintain accountability while continuing to demonstrate the sales behaviours expected from the team.

The experience we're looking for

Relevant industry sales experience is important for this appointment.

We are particularly interested in candidates from equipment hire/rental, compressed air, construction equipment, mining equipment or related industrial equipment businesses.





You will need a strong B2B sales background and demonstrated experience developing new customers rather than relying solely on an existing account portfolio.

For the right experienced BDM, this is an opportunity to move from being responsible predominantly for your own results to influencing the performance of an entire business unit.

The opportunity

You will inherit an established operation with an existing team, customers and infrastructure, rather than starting from scratch.

The business has the resources and backing of a larger Australian organisation, while still providing the Branch Manager with considerable opportunity to influence how the NSW operation develops.

For someone stepping up from a senior BDM position, this offers the opportunity to broaden your career into commercial management, team leadership and overall business performance without moving away from the customers and market you know.

For an existing Branch or Sales Manager, it offers a more commercially active leadership role where business development remains an important part of your contribution.

The package will reflect the seniority of the position and includes a fully maintained company vehicle, incentive program, phone and laptop.

The branch is located in Western Sydney, with regular travel throughout Greater Sydney and the broader NSW market.

If you have built your career in equipment hire, rental or industrial equipment sales and are ready for broader commercial responsibility, we would be interested in hearing from you.

All applications and enquiries will be treated in strict confidence.
