Jobs of the week: Branch Manager, Townsville

Looking for a sea change?

Townsville - you have the Great Barrier Reef right on your doorstep, no more cold winters! Long sunny days and short travelling distances, more time to spend with your family or fishing!

Lotsa Printing is based in North Queensland, with branches in Cairns, Townsville and Atherton, fed from the centralised production facility in Port Douglas. We are a privately owned business with modern print and finishing equipment, the largest print operation in regional Queensland with 42 staff on the team.

The position in Townsville is Branch Manager. The current team is 4 staff; this will grow to 7 to 8 staff as sales continue to grow in this booming city. Doubling of sales in 2 years will be easily achieved with an energetic person to lead the team.

The ideal candidate will be:

• From the print industry, knowledgeable in sheet fed products, both offset and digital, (we can train the digital if need be).

• Able to work in a busy environment and handle many jobs simultaneously.

• An organised methodical approach to paperwork - good with detail.

• Comfortable dealing with clients face to face.

• Have a keen sense of urgency to process quotes and jobs very quickly.

• A good team leader.

• Skilled in MIS systems, excel and general pre-press programs such as Acrobat.

For a person who has not held a management role before we are happy to train the right person in the role. We have a very successful operating formula that works and it requires a keen, high energy person to capitalise on it and keep the branch growing.

Remuneration is open to discussion and will be above industry standards.

The successful candidate, once established, would join our senior management team and then take on responsibility for new branches in other regional centres.
