The path is created and the processes set. We need you to come in and drive the business forward - taking on an established and highly focussed Solar and Electrical Business.

You will be working on enhancing the solid relationships with Insurance Panel Builders, Commercial Agents and Large Residential to maintain and grow volume of work with safety and profitability in mind.

An easy handover - the current Ops Manager is still in place to guide the transition - including running through the setup of SimPro and how he has used it for maximising efficiency job to job.

This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who knows the trade, understands the numbers, and can run the systems and processes a busy electrical and solar business needs to grow.

You will report directly to the owners who are hands on in the business.
