General Manager
Location:
Campbellfield VIC 3061, Australia
Job Type:
Full time
When opportunity knocks, do you answer with a game plan and a grin?
This job is NOT for you if...
- You prefer to sit back and go with the flow rather than take the lead.
- You’re more about maintaining the status quo than making an impact.
- You don’t like getting hands-on when needed—this role isn’t just about strategy; sometimes, you’ll need to step into the thick of operations.
- You’re not comfortable with change—growth means evolution, and we need someone who can ride the wave, not get caught in the undertow.
If you’re a strategic powerhouse with a knack for operations, a flair for leadership, and a hunger for business growth, this is your moment.
Our client provides innovative solutions for the RV industry, manufacturing high-quality components that keep things flowing smoothly for caravan and motorhome manufacturers.
They’re growing fast and need a General Manager who can turn up the pressure and take the business to new heights.
This isn’t just a job—it’s your chance to lead, innovate, and make an impact. If you love a challenge, thrive on building something great, and aren’t afraid to get your hands wet, keep reading.
What’s in it for you?
- Full control, zero micromanagement – You’ll be the captain of the ship, steering the business towards bigger and better things.
- A package worth bragging about – Competitive salary + performance bonuses because results deserve rewards.
- A booming industry, a growing company – The RV market is taking off, and this business is primed for expansion.
- A hands-on role with real impact – This is not a corner-office gig where decisions gather dust. You’ll be in the action, making waves that matter.
What you’ll be doing
- Driving Business Growth – Develop and execute strategies to increase revenue by at least 20% annually.
- Making Operations Lean & Mean – Identify and fix inefficiencies, streamline processes, and cut unnecessary costs.
- Supercharging Sales & Marketing – Build new relationships, enhance brand positioning, and ensure the business stays top-of-mind in the industry.
- Building a High-Performance Team – Lead, mentor, and grow a small but mighty team, creating a culture where people thrive.
- Keeping Customers Happy – Maintain a customer satisfaction score above 95% by ensuring top-quality products and service.
- Managing Financial Performance – Oversee budgets, optimise reporting, and make sure every dollar works hard (experience with Odoo ERP is a bonus).
What you bring to the table
- A proven track record in a senior leadership role (manufacturing, RV, or related industries preferred but not essential).
- A business growth mindset—someone who sees opportunity and goes after it.
- Strong experience in sales, marketing, and operational efficiency.
- The ability to build and nurture industry relationships.
- A hands-on, problem-solving attitude—this is not a desk-bound job.
- Financial acumen—budgets, forecasting, and cost control are second nature to you.
- Experience with ERP systems (Odoo experience is a bonus but not a deal-breaker).
- I am going to reiterate something here, you really need to be someone that understands the nuances of the RV, camping or related areas.
What success looks like in your first 6-12 months
- Revenue Growth: Implement a killer sales and marketing strategy, land key partnerships, and boost revenue by at least 20%.
- Operational Efficiency: Find bottlenecks, fix them, and streamline production and supply chain processes.
- Team Leadership: Set clear goals, develop your team, and create a high-performance culture.
- Brand Domination: Elevate marketing efforts, boost brand awareness, and make sure everyone in the industry knows your name.
- Customer Loyalty: Keep customer satisfaction above 95% and reduce product defects to near-zero.
