Bitek | Wholesale & Trade Distribution | TV

- Security
- Data

Are you an experienced manager who enjoys being close to the action?

Bitek is a well-established national distributor of TV, Security and Data products, supplying customers across the electrical, security, AV and ICT industries.

We're looking for an experienced Branch Manager to take ownership of our Canberra operation and lead a small, close-knit team.

This is not a desk-only management position.

You'll have responsibility for the overall performance, profitability and day-to-day operation of the branch, while working alongside your team to look after customers, drive sales, manage stock and keep the branch running efficiently.

One minute you might be talking with a key customer or identifying a new sales opportunity, and the next you could be assisting on the trade counter, checking incoming stock, organising freight or helping the team get an important order out the door.

If you're the type of manager who leads from the front, takes ownership and enjoys building a successful branch, this could be the role for you.
