Branch Manager

Our Mico Greymouth and Hokitika stores are busy branches, providing trade and retail solutions to a loyal trade customer base, from Karamea to Jackson’s Bay. Mico New Zealand is a leading supplier of plumbing and bathroom products to the trade, retail, and commercial sectors, with 70 branches and around 550 employees throughout New Zealand. About the role: We have an exciting opportunity for you to be a dynamic part of this well-performing crew, overseeing the branch and leading the team to even greater success. This is a hands-on role that will see you working closely with your customers, your team, and the community to build strong customer relationships and ensure that they are at the forefront of everything we do. Reporting to the Regional Manager, the Branch Manager role has 6 staff across both branches and works closely alongside the regional sales team. You will lead the team through planning, motivating, and coaching to achieve and better the branch’s financial targets and maximize sales opportunities. Your relationship skills will prove invaluable as you collaborate with your team and your peers, as well as building and strengthening relationships with key customers and stakeholders. This is a permanent, full-time role working Monday to Friday and occasional Saturday mornings. Some additional travel may be required to attend supplier or sales events, but ours is a business that is mindful and respectful of the need for a work-life balance. About you: Success in this role is about leading successfully across a multi-site area. While product and industry knowledge would be beneficial, relationship and leadership skills are what we’re looking for, and prior experience in leading top-performing teams is essential. Your general business acumen will be a great advantage in maximizing the profitability of your branch by maintaining budget alignment and actively seeking out opportunities to improve performance and reduce costs, as well as developing and implementing sales and marketing plans. With a collaborative management style, you will know how to get the best out of people and will enjoy seeing others grow and succeed. You’ll model a strong customer service culture and build and foster positive relationships between the branch team and the sales team in the region, ensuring high-level service delivery. Essentially, your can-do, customer-centric, and solutions-focused attitude will pave the way to your success and the success of your team and branch. What we can offer you: In return, we’ll offer you a competitive salary package, Short Term Incentive bonus based on your KPIs and sales achievements, full use of a company vehicle, the opportunity to join our FBu Share Scheme, our Paid Education Fund, and excellent opportunities for ongoing training and development—not to mention a strong and supportive team environment. As Mico New Zealand is also part of Fletcher Building, there are great opportunities for ongoing career development, plus ‘big company’ discounts, perks, and benefits. Please note: A full pre-employment medical, including a drug test, will be required, and you must currently be legally entitled to live and work permanently in New Zealand. We are proud of the incredible diversity of people who make up our business! As an Equal Opportunity Employer, we strive to create an inclusive environment for all our employees across our national network of branches throughout New Zealand. #J-18808-Ljbffr
