Job description

150k Base + Car, Profit Share (300k – 400k OTE)

Lead the Development of a New National Workforce Solutions Business

Build and lead an innovative workforce solutions division backed by an established national industrial services organisation

Leverage existing relationships across construction, mining, infrastructure, transport, engineering and industrial sectors

Develop scalable solutions spanning labour supply, workforce mobilisation, skilled migration, project staffing and workforce strategy

The Opportunity

A rare opportunity exists for an experienced General Manager to establish, lead and grow a new national Workforce Solutions Division.

Backed by an established organisation with longstanding customer relationships, strong operational infrastructure and ambitious growth plans, this role will be responsible for building a workforce solutions business designed to address some of Australia’s most complex labour and skills shortages.

This is far more than a traditional recruitment leadership position.

The successful candidate will have the opportunity to create and scale an integrated workforce model encompassing workforce planning, labour hire, permanent recruitment, skilled migration, mobilisation, project staffing and managed workforce programs.

Supported by executive leadership and an established national footprint, you will have the autonomy and resources to build a division capable of servicing clients across multiple industries throughout Australia.

Why This Opportunity Is Different

Most senior leadership roles involve inheriting an established team, operating model and commercial structure.

This opportunity is about creating something new – and being rewarded for it.

You will build a national workforce solutions platform that supports existing customers, develops new markets and creates sustainable revenue streams across a large and diverse client network.

You will have the opportunity to:

Develop and execute the national workforce solutions strategy

Establish new service offerings, operating models and revenue streams

Build and lead a high-performing workforce solutions team

Develop enterprise partnerships with major Australian employers

Create innovative workforce models that address labour and skills shortages

Drive workforce mobility, mobilisation and project staffing initiatives

Establish scalable workforce planning and managed service solutions

Influence strategic and commercial decisions at an executive level

Most importantly, you will have the backing of an organisation with an established market presence, national infrastructure and longstanding customer relationships—allowing you to concentrate on growth, innovation and execution.

The Vision

The Workforce Solutions Division will deliver scalable workforce outcomes through:

Workforce planning and advisory services

Labour hire and contingent workforce solutions

Permanent recruitment and talent acquisition

Skilled migration and international workforce programs

Workforce mobilisation and project staffing

Managed workforce solutions

Recruitment Process Outsourcing

Talent pooling and workforce redeployment

Strategic workforce partnerships

The objective is clear:

To create a market-leading national workforce solutions business that helps organisations overcome workforce challenges by providing access to the people, capability and workforce strategies required to support sustainable growth.

The Advantage

The successful General Manager will have access to an established national customer network operating across a national footprint, with an already established shared services and corporate support model (finance, payroll, recruitment resources)

This provides a unique platform to introduce complementary workforce solutions to existing customers while pursuing significant expansion opportunities throughout Australia.

What’s on Offer?

Executive leadership position with genuine autonomy

Opportunity to establish and scale a new national division

Access to an established and diverse customer network

Strong operational, finance, payroll and compliance support

Attractive executive salary package and performance incentives

Long-term profit share opportunities

Ability to build and shape your own team

Career-defining opportunity with significant growth potential

About You

You are a proven leader in workforce solutions, labour hire, recruitment, staffing or industrial services.

You generate strong billings, build valuable client relationships and consistently deliver commercial results. Yet your contribution may not be reflected in your recognition, influence or financial return.

You know how to win work, grow accounts, build teams and turn workforce challenges into profitable solutions. You have the relationships, commercial ability and ambition to build something significant.

You are no longer interested in creating substantial value without sharing in the upside.

You want the autonomy, resources and financial opportunity to build a national business where your success is recognised and rewarded.

What You’ll Receive

This is a unique opportunity to lead the development of a next‑generation workforce solutions business supported by an established national organisation with strong foundations, significant market reach and ambitious growth plans.

You will have the authority to shape the division’s strategy, service offering, team and future direction while benefiting from the infrastructure, customer relationships and executive backing needed to accelerate growth.

If you are looking for the opportunity to build, lead and scale a national workforce solutions platform, we welcome a confidential discussion.
