Branch Manager

Christchurch represents a key part of AWF's strategy to maintain its position as New Zealand's leading provider of labour-hire and permanent placement services across key regional centres. We now have an exciting opportunity for an experienced Sales Manager or Account / Relationship Manager, or recruitment consultant who's ready to take the next step, to lead our Christchurch branch and play a pivotal role in the growth of our newly established Civil and Construction arm.

Who we are

AWF is a well-established, New Zealand-owned company that has helped Keep NZ Working for over 30 years. Behind our success are genuine people focused on making a meaningful difference for our clients and candidates-placing people into rewarding work every day and ensuring they go home safely.

The role

This is a rare opportunity to take ownership of a branch while being at the forefront of building and expanding AWF's Civil and Construction specialisation in Christchurch. Ideally, you'll have a strong understanding of the local economy and construction market. While civil sector knowledge is advantageous, we're primarily looking for a commercially minded, and highly energetic, leader who can grow relationships, identify opportunities, and drive market expansion in this newly focused division.

As Branch Manager, you will:

• Be a captain within the branch, enjoying a mixture of leading by example in the field and guiding a small team to success
• Drive revenue growth by maximising opportunities within AWF's key national civil clients and expanding into new civil and construction customers
• Build and maintain strong, long-term relationships with clients and stakeholders
• Take ownership of branch performance, including financial results and cash flow targets
• Champion company-led initiatives and the development of the Civil and Construction arm
• Ensure Health & Safety compliance to company and client standards
• Bring a minimum of 3 years' leadership or management experience

Experience within recruitment, running a successful small business, or managing a branch of a national organisation will be highly regarded.

The benefits

• Attractive salary with uncapped bonus potential
• Supportive and collaborative team environment
• Company vehicle, mobile phone, and tools of the trade
• Extra day of leave for your birthday, a wellbeing day, plus corporate discounts
• Five weeks' annual leave after the qualifying period
• Ongoing support and development opportunities within the wider Accordant Group
