Not every Store Manager role comes with a clean slate.

This one does.

We're looking for a Store Manager to lead our Taubmans Darwin store, taking over from a long-standing leader who recently retired after a successful career.

You'll inherit an experienced team, a well-established customer base, and the opportunity to put your own stamp on the business.

The foundations are solid.

Now we're looking for someone who can help take it to the next level.

Whether you're currently a Store Manager, Assistant Store Manager, Branch Manager, Trade Centre Manager, or an experienced retail leader ready for something different, we'd love to hear from you.

What's the opportunity?

This isn't a role where you'll spend all day sitting behind a desk.

You'll be on the shop floor, working with customers, supporting your team, managing inventory, and driving sales performance across the Darwin market.

The store also services a key Bunnings distribution channel, so keeping stock moving and customers happy is a big part of the job.

You'll lead a small, experienced team consisting of an Assistant Store Manager and two Sales Assistants.

They're knowledgeable, capable, and have kept things running well during an extended period without a permanent Store Manager.

Now they need a leader who can help unlock the store's potential.

What success looks like

Within your first 6-12 months you'll be focused on:

• Growing sales and improving commercial performance

• Building strong relationships with trade and retail customers

• Maintaining excellent inventory management

• Achieving industry-leading DIFOT performance

• Creating a positive, accountable team culture

• Identifying opportunities to grow the business across the NT market

Why people enjoy working here

At PPG, we back our people. You'll join a global business with trusted brands including Taubmans, White Knight and Johnstone's, while still enjoying the feel of a local team where everybody knows each other and pitches in.

What's in it for you?

• Monday to Saturday team roster

• Performance incentive opportunities

• Career development and progression opportunities

• Product discounts across our brands

• Employee recognition programs

• Corporate wellbeing benefits

• Opportunity to make a genuine impact on a growing business

You'll thrive if you

• Enjoy leading people and building team culture

• Know how to create great customer experiences

• Have experience managing inventory and store operations

• Like rolling your sleeves up and getting involved

• Are commercially minded and motivated by results

• Build strong relationships and earn trust quickly

• Take ownership and accountability for your business

Paint industry experience is great, but it's not essential.

We'll teach you paint.

What we're looking for is leadership, customer focus and the drive to make things better.

Ready to build something of your own?

If you're looking for a leadership role where you'll have the freedom to make decisions, support a great team and help grow a business, we'd love to hear from you.
