Our Portables business is a National specialised hire business within Hirepool with products such as Portaloos, industrial use fencing, barriers and luxury toilet units. Within our National Portables branch network, our branch in Upper Hutt supports a wide and varied customer base around Wellington from small building firms through to global infrastructure businesses and everyone in between.

This is a key role where your remit is the overall accountability for branch performance. This includes the achievement of financial targets, ensuring that operational standards are maintained, and that the team are always working safely while ensuring excellent service delivery to our broad range of customers.

In joining this team, you will be responsible for a customer service person and as well as a team of drivers who are responsible for the delivery and cleaning requirements of our Portaloo fleet.

To ensure successful revenue generation you will be commercially minded, a strong negotiator and have superb customer relationship management skills with the ability to develop and maintain strong business networks. If you have worked in the hire industry that would be an advantage, however this opportunity would also suit someone from a freight, transport / logistics background due to the similarities of leading a fast-paced operation where the management of the people and customer expectations are key to a commercially successful business.

Any questions, you're more than welcome to contact the Hub Manager - Central Portables, Nigel McKenzie on 027 436 0506

What you need:

• A full driver licence (other classes and endorsements would be an advantage)
• Excellent communication skills and an ability to engage effectively with people at all levels
• Significant staff management experience

• To be a hands-on manager - prepared to occasionally provide support to your team with deliveries/pickups, servicing or getting orders together
