Job description

We don't just need a manager. We need a leader. Someone with grit, discipline, practical skills, and a damn good attitude.

Travellers Autobarn is a global campervan rental brand born in Australia, now operating across New Zealand, Japan, and the USA.

We're looking for a Branch Manager to lead our Sydney operation, build a strong team culture, and run the branch like it's their own business.

This is not a desk job. It's hands-on, fast-paced, and customer-focused. You'll be leading a small team, managing a fleet of campervans, solving problems, and ensuring the branch runs like clockwork.

We'll provide training, support, and the tools to succeed. But we're looking for someone who brings the drive, initiative, and leadership.

Who You Are

Ownership. You're proactive, resourceful, and confident making decisions. You take pride in finding solutions and getting things done.

Organised. You thrive on systems, schedules, checklists, and keeping operations running smoothly.

Attention to detail. From vehicle inspections to customer experiences, the little things matter.

Energy. You motivate people, build morale, and make work feel like a team effort.

Lead by example. You're not afraid to get your hands dirty, but you also know how to delegate and develop your team.

Mechanically confident. You're comfortable with tools, troubleshooting problems, and carrying out practical repairs.

What You'll Do

Take responsibility for the day-to-day operations of our Sydney branch.

Lead, train, and develop a small team.

Ensure our campervan fleet is safe, clean, maintained, and ready for the road.

Carry out practical campervan repairs, including 12V systems, cabinetry, windows, and appliance fittings, within your skills and training.

Coordinate mechanical repairs, servicing, tyres, windscreens, and panel work.

Deliver excellent customer service and solve problems as they arise.

Manage branch KPIs, maintenance records, suppliers, and operating expenses.

Maintain a clean, organised, and safe working environment.

Drive sales of insurance, optional extras, and campervans.

What You Bring

Must-haves:

Full Australian working rights.

A valid driver's licence.

Strong practical, mechanical, or handyman skills.

Confidence leading people and taking responsibility.

Good communication and organisational skills.

Comfort using computers, apps, and administration systems.

A genuine interest in committing to the role and growing with the business.

Experience in automotive, campervans, rentals, tourism, or hospitality.

Previous supervisory or management experience.

Skills in 12V electrical systems, cabinetry, or vehicle repairs.

A passion for travel, adventure, and life on the road.

What's In It For You?

$75,000 base salary + superannuation.

Uncapped monthly commission on insurance, add-ons, and vehicle sales.

$500 monthly performance bonus (subject to KPIs).

On-Target Earnings (OTE): $85,000+, including performance incentives and commissions.

Free annual international campervan hire.

Access to campervan use when available.

Comprehensive training and ongoing support from our global head office team.

Genuine responsibility, operational autonomy, and an opportunity to build your leadership career.

Travellers Autobarn opened in Sydney in late 1993, at a time when there were already a number of dealers selling cars to backpackers. However, these businesses were car dealerships first and foremost, and did not really understand the needs of travellers. From the outset, Travellers Autobarn focused entirely on these special needs. As ex-backpackers, all of us decided to provide the kind of service we would expect ourselves. What you see today is the result. None of the car dealers that were selling to backpackers in 1993 still exist today!

Travellers Autobarn knows Australia inside out – it’s our home! We also know cars and love our job. Basically, the idea of travelling around Australia by bus is simply out of the question. For most Aussies, not just the adventurous ones, but students, families and retirees, the only way to see Australia is by car.
