About the Role

This is a genuine owner-operator seat, with permanent capital backing. You'll take full P&L accountability for the business from day one, reporting directly to the founder, who is stepping back from day-to-day operations to focus on the next stage of growth for his portfolio.

In year one, you'll integrate two existing businesses into a single operation, stand up a new sales and operations structure, launch a rebrand, and hold performance steady through the transition. From there, the mandate is growth: organic expansion through a land-and-expand account model, plus integrating acquisitions as the platform scales.

Key responsibilities include:

• Owning the full P&L, strategy, and quarterly execution plan
• Driving sales growth and building a structured cross-sell program across the client base
• Running the end-to-end operational engine, including export and customs processes for remote and international sites
• Building a category-based supply chain & procurement model to negotiate better pricing and terms
• Recruiting, developing and holding accountable a lean, high-performing team
• Leading systems and process improvements, including automation and AI-enabled tools
• Integrating future acquisitions into the platform

About You

You're currently in a management consulting role at a top-tier or specialist firm, and you're ready to trade advisory work for a real operating seat with genuine decision rights. You've spent your career diagnosing and recommending, and you're looking for the chance to actually own the outcome.

You'll need:

• A strong track record across strategy, operations, or transformation engagements, ideally with exposure to resources, industrials, or infrastructure clients
• Genuine commercial instincts and the confidence to take on full P&L ownership for the first time
• Comfort with lean overhead and hands-on problem-solving, not a preference for corporate infrastructure and support functions
• A bias to action and decision-making with incomplete information, rather than waiting for the perfect dataset
• Real interest in modern systems, automation and AI as tools to scale a business, not just concepts you've advised clients on
• Willingness to be based in Perth
