Yatala
Mabey Hire Pty Ltd is an industry-leading provider of engineered products and services to the civil construction and infrastructure sectors across Australia and New Zealand. We provide innovative groundwork and shoring solutions and are proud of our strong values-based culture built around Trust, Service and Progress.
Based in Yatala, we are seeking a responsible, organised and commercially minded individual with a strong entrepreneurial streak to join our team as State Manager.
This is a senior leadership role with responsibility for driving branch performance, customer relationships, sales growth and operational excellence throughout the region. While you will lead a small team, this is not a corporate management position. As a smaller business, we need a leader who is prepared to be hands-on, roll up their sleeves, and actively contribute to the growth and success of the branch.
A significant part of this role involves business development and sales, so you must be comfortable building customer relationships, identifying opportunities, generating new business and maintaining a strong presence in the market. We are looking for someone who can lead the business while also acting as a trusted sales representative for Mabey Hire throughout Western Australia.
This role is ideally suited to a commercially minded leader who enjoys being close to customers, operations and day-to-day decision-making. Those who have spent most of their careers leading large corporate teams through multiple management layers may find this role quite different, as success relies on direct involvement in sales, customer engagement and operational leadership.
Key Duties
- Manage the civil construction hire operations within Western Australia, representing Mabey Hire as the senior company representative in the region.
- Drive branch growth through proactive sales, business development and customer engagement activities.
- Develop and maintain robust relationships with existing and prospective customers throughout Western Australia.
- Identify new market opportunities and implement strategies to increase revenue and market share.
- Lead and drive health and safety strategies, initiatives and standards.
- Manage day-to-day branch operations to ensure outstanding customer service and operational performance.
- Develop strategic solutions to support both short-term objectives and long-term sustainability.
- Prepare reports and provide regular updates on branch performance and key deliverables.
- Lead, mentor and support a small team to achieve operational and commercial objectives.
What Are We Looking For?
- Proven experience as a state manager, sales manager or in a similar leadership role.
- Strong sales and business development experience with a demonstrated ability to win new business and grow customer relationships.
- A hands-on leader who is comfortable balancing operational responsibilities with customer-facing sales activities.
- Comfortable being directly involved in sales, customer engagement and operational activities, not just people management.
- An entrepreneurial mindset with the ability to operate effectively in a lean, hands-on environment rather than a large corporate structure.
- Commitment to zero harm and demonstrated safety leadership behaviours.
- Experience working in a commercial environment where accountability and results matter.
- Excellent relationship-building, communication, negotiation and influencing skills.
- Strong commercial acumen and a customer-focused approach.
- Outstanding interpersonal and leadership capabilities.
- Personal drive, resilience and a strong results orientation.
Why Join Mabey?
- Permanent full-time opportunity based in Yatala, QUeensland.
- Competitive remuneration package including a fully maintained tool-of-trade vehicle.
- Opportunity to lead and shape a growing business in your region.
- Supportive, non-corporate environment where your contribution has a direct impact on success.
- Organisation dedicated to health, safety and the environment.
- Opportunity to work within a highly successful team in a busy and growing market.
- Genuine career development opportunities.
- Access to established CRM systems, existing clients and active projects.
If you are a commercially driven leader who enjoys building relationships, growing business and leading from the front, we would love to hear from you. This opportunity is ideal for someone who thrives in a hands-on environment and wants to make a direct impact on the success of a growing business.
