Open it. Lead it. Make it yours.

This is a rare one — a showroom from day one, on the Sunshine Coast.

We are opening King Living Maroochydore, and we are looking for the leader who will bring it to life. You will hire the team, set the standard, open the doors and run it — and the way you do all of that will define this showroom for years.

You will be accountable for the whole picture: sales performance, customer experience, your people, operations and the way the showroom looks and feels every day.

And you will lead from the floor, taking the difficult customer conversation, coaching in the moment, and setting the standard everyone else works to. All of it backed by a national retail team and a global business that is genuinely excited about this market.
