Branch Manager - Dunedin


Lead the Branch. Own the Result.

At Booth’s, we don’t sit back and wait for things to happen — we find a way.

We’re looking for a Branch Manager who is ready to step up, take ownership, and run a key branch in our South Island operation. This is a genuine opportunity to make your mark — leading a high performing team and playing a key role in shaping what comes next.

With plans to keep growing our valued customer base, this is more than just keeping the wheels turning — it’s about helping build something better.

 

The role in a nutshell

The purpose of this role is to lead, grow and develop our Dunedin branch, ensuring that we deliver for our customers every time. Use your knowledge, experience and passion to build a strong, capable team for the future.

 

What you’ll be doing

You’ll be responsible for the full performance of your branch — not just keeping things moving but making them better.

  • Leading and developing your team to perform at their best
  • Driving a culture of safety
  • Owning day-to-day operations — planning, routing, service delivery
  • Managing cost, productivity, and branch performance
  • Building strong customer relationships and growing the business
  • Identifying opportunities to improve how we work and getting on with it

This is a hands-on leadership role. You’ll be visible, decisive, and accountable.

 

What we’re looking for

We’re not after a passenger — we want a leader.

  • Proven experience in transport, logistics, or a similar fast-paced environment
  • Strong operational leadership — you know how to run a branch properly
  • Commercial mindset — you understand cost, revenue, and performance
  • Ability to lead people, have the tough conversations, and lift standards
  • A “can do, will do” attitude — you find solutions, not excuses

 

Why Booth’s

We’re a family-owned business that backs its people. We move fast, we support each other, and we take pride in what we do.

 

This role offers:

  • The chance to run a significant, high value operation
  • Exposure to growth in one of our key South Island regions
  • A real opportunity to step up into the next level of your career
  • Involvement in shaping a future-fit facility and operation

 

If you're someone who:

  • Takes ownership
  • Leads from the front
  • Wants to make a real impact

…you’ll fit right in.
