Own a P&L.; Build a business. Grow a career.

Lighthouse Service Partners is a people-first residential trades business on a mission to partner with and grow home service businesses across plumbing, HVAC, electrical and related trades all over Australia.

The Opportunity

As a General Manager at Lighthouse Service Partners, you'll take full P&L; ownership of a business under our portfolio of companies. You'll drive growth, shape culture, and get hands-on with every part of the business, backed by a rapid-moving parent company and a proven playbook. Trades or home services experience would be great but more importantly we're looking for sharp, driven operators who want to learn fast and grow into something bigger — including future organic growth initiatives and M&A; opportunities.

To set you up for success, incoming GMs go through LEAP — our Lighthouse Entrepreneurship Accelerator Program. LEAP is a structured pathway that gets you close to the business before you're running it solo: real site visits, a proven scorecard framework, and hands-on exposure to what it actually takes to operate a trades business — so you step into P&L; ownership prepared, not thrown in the deep end.

What You'll Do
Own the P&L; — drive gross profit and EBITDA growth, and own reporting to senior leadership




Build and lead high-performing teams, and develop the next generation of managers
Drive operational excellence across systems, processes, and people
Get close to the customer and relentlessly improve their experience
Set strategy, move rapid, and make data-informed calls

What You Bring
A track record of driving impact and beating targets — SMB general management or senior leadership experience a plus
Strong budgeting, financial management, P&L; ownership
High EQ, sharp people instincts, and a genuine interest in developing others
A resourceful, scrappy, roll-up-your-sleeves mindset
Robust problem-solving skills and a strategic mindset
A degree (MBA or equivalent a bonus, not a requirement)
Respect for the trades — or the hunger to earn it fast

Why Lighthouse?

You'll get real P&L; ownership most people don't see until much later in their careers, a structured runway through LEAP to set you up before you're flying solo, direct mentorship from a team backed by one of the most respected people-development investment firms in the industry, and a fast track to bigger leadership and M&A; opportunities as we scale.
