Branch Manager
Visa sponsorship
Automotive · Tauranga, New Zealand · Full-Time · $25/hr · Visa: Employer sponsored
A Tauranga branch that brings service, parts, sales and engineering under one roof needs a manager who enjoys growing people and winning customers. Keeping several teams aligned is the heart of the role.
You will be judged on safety, customer service, sales, profitability and operational targets, so commercial judgement matters as much as leadership. Suitably qualified overseas candidates can be offered sponsorship.
A leadership CV should show the branches or sites you have managed, the teams you grew and the budgets you answered for. Build AI CV can help you frame a branch manager profile around them.
