A well-established flexible workspace network is opening a new Adelaide location and needs a commercially driven Sales & Operations Manager to own it from the ground up - driving occupancy, revenue, member experience, and day-to-day operations under one remit.
This is a rare opportunity to be the founding operator of a new site with real strategic importance to the broader business. If you are energised by sales targets, comfortable running an operation end to end, and want the autonomy that comes with building something new, this is worth your attention.
What You'll Be Doing
* Develop and execute strategies to drive sales, increase occupancy, and retain members
* Manage inbound and outbound enquiries, conduct tours, negotiate contracts, and close deals
* Build and maintain strong relationships with prospective and existing members
* Oversee daily operations to ensure the facility runs smoothly, safely, and efficiently
* Manage budgeting, forecasting, and resource allocation to optimise financial and operational performance
* Implement and review operational policies and procedures to drive continuous improvement
* Ensure compliance with all legal and safety requirements for the site
* Collaborate with the group marketing team to develop local campaigns and identify market opportunities
* Represent the business at local events and networking gatherings to build brand presence and forge strategic partnerships
* Once occupancy targets are achieved, hire, train, and lead a Community Manager — building a high-performing, collaborative team
What You Bring
* Proven track record in sales, business development, and operational management
* Strong commercial mindset with the ability to consistently achieve revenue and occupancy targets
* Excellent communication, negotiation, and interpersonal skills
* Highly organised with the ability to manage multiple priorities independently and with minimal supervision
* An innovative, solutions-focused approach to identifying and capitalising on opportunities
* Leadership qualities and experience building and managing teams
What Will Make You Stand Out
* Prior experience in coworking, flexible workspace, hospitality, or a similarly member-facing environment
* You are as comfortable closing a deal as you are solving an operational problem on the same day
* You have launched or grown a new location, site, or territory from an early stage
* You bring energy and initiative to a role where the playbook is still being written
Why This Role
Competitive salary with performance incentives, genuine autonomy, and the opportunity to shape the culture and success of a new location that matters to the broader business. Career growth opportunities exist for the right person as the site scales.
