General Manager - Executive Leadership Role

Generous remuneration package commensurate with ex

- Lead a successful, established business through its next phase of growth
- Drive operational performance, profitability and commercial results
- Build a stronger leadership culture and a more scalable, management-led organisation

Why this Role is Exciting

This is the kind of role where you can point to the business in 12 months and clearly see what changed because you were there. It's not for the faint hearted, it will suit someone who embraces challenge. The business is fundamentally sound, but change is needed to unlock the next phase of growth.

You will take the lead of an established, privately owned custom interiors business with more than 35 years in market, strong customer relationships and proven technical capability. The opportunity is to turn that solid foundation into a more disciplined, profitable and management-led business.

You will have the scope to:

- Lead a genuine operational and cultural transformation.
- Build a stronger, more accountable management team.
- Improve profitability, workflow and delivery performance.
- Help drive the business through its next phase of sustainable growth, building a strong foundation and positioning it for long-term success.

Why Will You Like Working Here

You will inherit a respected brand, a capable technical team, a strong ability to win work and an industry-specific ERP system already in place. Your opportunity is to make those strengths work together far more effectively.

You will have genuine authority to influence how the business operates, this is not a transformation where the owner is resisting change.



There is clear recognition that the business needs stronger leadership, better operating discipline and less reliance on the owner day to day.

What You Will Be Working On

You will bring sales, project delivery, production, installation and finance together around agreed priorities, stronger planning and explicit accountability. Replacing firefighting with clear operating rhythm.

- Lead and develop the management team.
- Improve workflow and throughput from sales through to final invoicing.
- Take ownership of P&L;, margin, cashflow and overall business performance.
- Improve planning, scheduling and utilisation of the existing ERP platform.
- Strengthen operational discipline without losing the business's practical 'can-do' culture.

What it takes to be Successful

The strongest candidate will be a commercially sharp operational leader who has already improved a complex SME or privately owned business.

You will understand how sales, projects, production and installation need to work together, and you will be comfortable leading change where stronger accountability and management discipline are required.

- Leadership experience in manufacturing, joinery, construction-related production, installation or another project-based environment.
- A track record in business improvement, transformation or turnaround.
- Strong commercial and financial judgement.
- The confidence to challenge people constructively and hold them accountable.
- The ability to move between strategic priorities and practical operational issues.

If you are currently a General Manager, Operations Director, Business Unit Manager or CEO of a privately owned business, this role should be worth exploring.
