About the Role

You’ll be responsible for leading and coordinating service operations, ensuring the team is performing efficiently while delivering a high level of customer service.

This is a people and operations-focused role, suited to someone who enjoys managing teams, improving processes, and driving accountability — rather than being hands-on technical.



Key Responsibilities

  • Lead and manage a team of service technicians across multiple locations
  • Oversee daily service operations, scheduling, and workflow coordination
  • Drive team performance, accountability, and engagement
  • Ensure strong customer service delivery and timely job completion
  • Monitor operational metrics, reporting, and service outcomes
  • Support continuous improvement across systems and processes
  • Work closely with internal teams to ensure smooth service delivery

What We’re Looking For

  • Proven experience in operations, service, or workshop management
  • Strong people leadership experience (ideally managing field or service teams)
  • Highly organised, proactive, and commercially aware
  • Ability to balance team management, customer needs, and operational priorities
  • Background in an industrial or service-based environment (preferred)

Nice to Have

  • Experience within industrial equipment, maintenance, or service environments
  • Exposure to managing mobile or field-based teams

What’s on Offer

  • Base salary
  • 20% performance bonus
  • Car allowance (~$20K)
  • Stable, long-term opportunity within a well-established business
  • Supportive leadership and clear reporting structure

Additional Details

  • Adelaide-based role (office-focused)
  • Quarterly travel required (Darwin and regional SA)
