Job description

Lead People. Build Performance. Drive Growth.

Our client is a globally recognised brand with an outstanding reputation, strong values and a genuine commitment to building high-performing teams. An exciting opportunity exists for an experienced Sales Manager to take the reins of an established Adelaide operation and lead the next phase of growth. This role is ideal for a leader who thrives on creating positive change, developing people and turning potential into performance.

This is not a role for someone who wants to manage from behind a desk. We're looking for a hands-on leader who enjoys the challenge of uplifting capability, embedding accountability and building a culture where people, customers and results thrive. You'll inherit a team with strong potential and have the support, tools and autonomy to make a genuine impact.

The Opportunity

Reporting to senior leadership and supported by a highly engaged national team, you'll lead a team of 4-5 sales professionals and play a key role in transforming performance, strengthening culture and driving sustainable growth.

If you're energised by coaching others, implementing structure, using data to drive improvement and celebrating team success, this is an opportunity to leave your mark.

You will step into a business with strong foundations, a respected brand and significant opportunity for growth. Your focus will be on building trust, creating accountability and developing a team that consistently delivers outstanding customer outcomes.

About You

You are first and foremost a genuine leader.

You build trust quickly, lead with integrity and get genuine satisfaction from helping others succeed. You don't shy away from difficult conversations, but you approach them with empathy, fairness and a focus on development.

To be successful, you'll bring:

• Proven experience leading and developing successful sales teams within a Sales Manager or similar leadership role.
• A genuine, values-driven leadership style that inspires trust, accountability and teamwork.
• Demonstrated success coaching, mentoring and uplifting underperforming teams to achieve stronger results.
• Strong CRM, lead management and sales process discipline, with a focus on converting opportunities and maximising team performance.
• A customer-first mindset and passion for delivering exceptional service and long-term relationships.
• A proven track record of exceeding sales targets, driving growth and leading teams through positive change.

The Benefits

• Take ownership of a site with genuine, untapped potential.
• Join a global business with strong national support and resources.
• Work alongside values-driven leaders who genuinely invest in their people.
• Influence culture, performance and long-term business success.
• Be recognised for building a high-performing team and delivering meaningful change.

If you love developing people, enjoy a challenge and have a passion for building high-performing sales teams, we'd love to hear from you.

For leaders who enjoy being hands-on and making an immediate impact, the role will initially involve supporting the branch across Monday to Saturday trading. Further details will be provided during the phone screening stage.

Every application we receive is read by a real recruiter who understands the role, the client, and your career journey. No bots, just people who care.
