Assistant Branch Manager

Support Daily Operations. Lead by Example. Keep Customers Moving.  

We’re looking for a friendly, organised and proactive Assistant Branch Manager to help lead the day-to-day operation of one of our busy branches.   

This is a hands-on role where no two days are the same. You’ll be supporting customers following a vehicle accident or breakdown, coordinating drivers and vehicle movements, completing rental check-ins, assisting the Branch Manager with daily operations and helping ensure everything runs smoothly throughout your shift. 

You’ll play an important role within the branch, acting as a senior point of contact for the team and making informed decisions to keep operations running efficiently. Whether you’re helping a customer get back on the road, planning tomorrow’s bookings or responding to changing priorities throughout the day, you’ll be trusted to help keep the operation moving.   

This role is ideal for someone looking to take the next step in their leadership career within a growing national business, with genuine opportunities to progress into Branch Manager and other leadership positions over time. 

Our branches operate 7:00am to 9:00pm, seven days a week, and this full-time position works on a rotating roster, with early, day and late shifts shared fairly across the team, including weekends.
