About The Jet Co
n
The Jet Co is a growing Sydney-based exterior cleaning and property services business servicing residential, commercial and large-scale clients across Sydney.
n
We currently operate a fleet of four service vehicles with a team of field technicians supported by administration staff.
n
As one of NSW's highest-reviewed exterior cleaning companies, we have built a strong reputation and established customer base, with significant opportunity for further growth.
n
We are now looking for an experienced and commercially minded General Manager to take responsibility for the day-to-day operation of the business and help lead its next stage of growth.
n
This is a hands-on leadership position. We are looking for someone who enjoys being close to the operation, solving problems, developing people, improving systems and building a high-performing service business.
n
The Role
n
Reporting directly to the owner, you will have broad responsibility for the operational and commercial performance of The Jet Co.
n
You will be trusted to run the day-to-day business, manage the team, improve our systems and build the structure required as the company continues to grow.

Your responsibilities will include:
n
Taking overall responsibility for day-to-day business operations
n
Leading and managing field technicians and administration staff
n
Recruiting, onboarding and managing a dedicated sales professional
n
Developing and monitoring sales targets, KPIs and performance

Resolving operational issues, customer escalations and staff matters

Monitoring labour costs, job profitability and operational expenditure

n
What We're Looking For
n
We are looking for a strong operator and people leader who is ready to take genuine responsibility for the performance of a growing business.
n
Experience within commercial cleaning, facilities management, field services, trades, maintenance, landscaping, construction services, equipment hire or another service-based business would be highly regarded.
n
The successful candidate will ideally have:
n
Demonstrated experience managing operational teams
n
Strong leadership and people-management capability
n
Experience recruiting, developing and holding staff accountable
n




Strong commercial and financial understanding
n
Experience managing KPIs, budgets and business performance
n
The ability to understand job profitability and control operational costs
n
Excellent organisational and problem-solving skills
n
Experience implementing and improving business systems and processes
n
Confidence dealing with customers and commercial clients
n
The ability to make decisions independently and take ownership of outcomes
n
Experience managing or building a sales function would be highly regarded
n
A practical, hands-on management style
n
Most importantly, we are looking for someone who takes ownership and gets things done.
n
When a vehicle breaks down, a team member calls in sick, a major client needs something resolved or the schedule suddenly changes, you will have the authority and responsibility to find the solution.
n
The Chance
n
This is an opportunity to take a senior leadership position in an established business while it is still at a size where your decisions will have a direct and visible impact on its success.
n
The foundations are already in place. An established customer base, strong reputation, experienced field team, vehicles, equipment and administrative support.
n
The next stage is about strengthening management, building the sales function, improving systems and developing the structure required for continued growth.
n
You will have genuine responsibility and autonomy, direct access to ownership and the opportunity to build the operation rather than simply inherit a corporate management structure.
n
As the business grows, there is significant opportunity for the position to grow with it.
n
Remuneration
n
$120,000 – $135,000 + superannuation
n
A performance-based incentive may be applicable.
n
Remuneration will depend on experience and demonstrated capability.
