About New Horizons Enterprises Limited

Fifty five years ago, our founders established a world-first social enterprise when they partnered with BP to create employment opportunities for people with disability. Since then we’ve grown to become one of Australia’s most diverse and trusted non-profits, supporting thousands of people.

The Opportunity

This is an all-rounder General Manager with full P&L; and growth accountability across the Pathway group. You’ll steady the ship, then set the course - stabilising operations and building the structure, systems and team to scale the B2B business.

Core services offered by Pathway:

- Agency / On-call: protect and improve service to existing clients while building external provider partnerships and larger managed-workforce arrangements.
- Recruitment: lift internal performance and expand permanent, specialist, executive and volume recruitment to external clients.
- Training: establish a credible training offer, starting with practical workforce development and progressing accredited delivery through the right RTO pathway.

What You’ll Do

- Own overall performance across Agency / On-call, Recruitment and Training, with accountability for growth, operations, customer outcomes, people, risk and financial sustainability.
- Lead the transition from servicing our first B2B client to scaling the B2B growth model without compromising existing business service levels.
- Personally lead priority business development: open doors, build a qualified pipeline, negotiate commercial terms and close anchor clients.
- Build and coach leaders across workforce scheduling, labour hire, recruitment and training, setting clear targets and removing duplicated or unclear accountability.
- Improve operating systems and disciplines covering rostering, talent pools, onboarding,



compliance, payroll/invoicing interfaces, workforce communications, CRM and management reporting.
- Own budgets and business-unit P&Ls; improve pricing, gross margin, cost-to-serve, productivity and forecasting.
- Ensure strong WHS, Fair Work, industrial relations, worker screening and sector-specific compliance, with appropriate governance for training activities.

- Working knowledge of Fair Work, WHS and labour hire compliance; RTO exposure is a plus
