  • Lead an 18-person sales, manufacturing and service operation
  • Profit share, autonomy and influence over the business
  • Drive growth from a new purpose-built facility

Finding people who understand both manufacturing and sales leadership isn't easy.

That's exactly why this role is so important.

MM Plastics is looking for a Business Manager to lead our Victorian operation spanning sales, customer service, manufacturing and warehousing, with full P&L responsibility.

With the business moving into a new purpose-built facility, the next few years will be an exciting period of growth and change. You'll be at the centre of it.

Around half of the business involves value-add manufacturing, including CNC machining and fabrication. This isn't a typical distribution business. You'll need to understand how products move through a manufacturing environment while also driving commercial outcomes and developing the sales team.

You'll lead the team, lift capability, strengthen accountability and continue building a high-performing culture across both the commercial and operational sides of the business.

If you're motivated by improving businesses, developing people and building something even better, this role gives you the platform to do exactly that.

About Dotmar Engineering Plastics

Part of MM Plastics, Dotmar supplies thermoplastic, heatbelt and conveyor products and value-added solutions to customers across a wide range of industries including OEM, engineering, infrastructure, food & beverage processing, and construction.

Backed by Metal Manufactures Pty Ltd. Dotmar combines the strength of a national group with the agility and accountability of a local business. The group offers a generous profit share program and genuine long-term career opportunities.

  
What You'll Do

  • Run the business as if it were your own
  • Lead and develop teams across sales, customer service, manufacturing and operations
  • Build strong relationships with customers and suppliers
  • Drive commercial and operational outcomes
  • Identify opportunities to improve efficiency, capability and service

  
About You

Most candidates will have strength in either sales leadership or operations.
The person we're looking for has both.

Ideally, you've led teams in manufacturing, engineering, fabrication, machining or a similar industrial environment. You understand what drives customers, what keeps production moving, and how to balance both.

You're commercially minded, enjoy improving the way things are done and bring energy to the teams you lead. You're comfortable making decisions, holding people accountable and driving change where you see opportunities.

Experience in environments such as CNC machining, fabrication, plastics or otherwise will be highly regarded.
  

What's In It For You?

  • Profit share bonuses
  • Car allowance or company car + fuel card
  • Autonomy to lead the business your way
  • Opportunity to shape the next phase of growth
  • Support from one of Australia's largest privately owned companies

If you're looking for an opportunity to lead from the front, build a high-performing team and make a lasting commercial impact, we'd love to hear from you.

Please note only shortlisted candidates will be contacted. We thank you for your understanding.
