Lead Kalgoorlie’s go-to equipment hire branch

• Permanent full-time position with a competitive salary package

• Fully maintained company vehicle

The Coates Kalgoorlie branch is home to a dynamic team and we’re looking for a Branch Manager who is ready to own it. You’ll lead a team of customer and service professionals, drive branch performance and be the kind of leader your team genuinely wants to follow.

This is a role for someone who thrives on variety, builds strong relationships naturally, and gets satisfaction from seeing their team succeed. You’ll have real autonomy to shape how the branch operates and the support of a national business behind you.

Day to day, you’ll:

• Drive branch performance across safety, revenue, fleet utilisation and customer loyalty
• Champion a safety-first culture for your team and every customer on site
• Coach and motivate your team to deliver the kind of service that keeps customers coming back
• Build the right solution for each customer – from quotes and hire agreements through to purchase orders
• Oversee fleet and asset management to keep the branch running at its best

What you’ll get in return

Joining Coates means joining a company that genuinely invests in its people. You’ll receive:

• Clear career progression pathways and leadership development programs
• Flexible working options – let’s talk about what works for you
• Employee discounts, benefits and a dedicated wellbeing program
• Purchased additional leave
• Novated leasing and salary sacrifice options
• 16 weeks paid parental leave on top of the government scheme
• Paid volunteering days through the Coates Foundation

What you’ll bring to the role

• Proven experience in sales and operational management, ideally in equipment hire, industrial services or a related field
• A track record of leading teams with a genuine ‘One Team’ mindset – you bring people together, not just manage them
• Consistent delivery against commercial KPIs and P&L targets
• Sharp commercial instincts and confidence with branch-level financials
• Strong communication skills – you’re as comfortable on the phone with a customer as you are presenting to management
• Confidence with computer systems, CRM tools and Microsoft Office
