We don’t just need a manager. We need a leader — someone with grit, discipline, and a damn good attitude.

Travellers Autobarn is a global campervan rental brand — born in Australia, now rolling across New Zealand, Japan, and the U.S. Our Cairns branch is growing, and we’re looking for a Branch Manager to take the wheel, build a strong team culture, and run the branch like it’s their own business.

This is not a desk job. It’s hands-on, fast-paced, and customer-focused. If you’re motivated, mechanically confident, and ready to step up, this is your launchpad to real leadership in an exciting tourism business. We’ll train and support you — but you need to show up ready to lead.

Who You Are:

You’ve got a positive, solution-first attitude — no excuses, just ownership.

You’re organised — lists, systems, and schedules are your thing.

You have strong attention to detail — van checks, team communication, cleanliness, everything.

You bring energy and lift morale — you make work feel like a team sport.

You lead by example — high standards, high trust, you are hands-on AND you delegate.

You’re handy and mechanically confident — you can turn a spanner and think on your feet.

What You’ll Do

Run the day-to-day operations of our Cairns branch — vehicles, people, and processes.

Train, coach, and lead a small team (2–3 direct reports + contractors).

Own fleet presentation, cleaning oversight, safety, and maintenance readiness.

Deliver great customer service — and jump in yourself when needed.

Manage branch KPIs, maintenance records, local suppliers, and expenses.

Maintain a clean, organised, and safe work environment.

Drive local sales, up-sell add-ons, and support vehicle sales.

What You Bring

Must-Haves:

A valid driver’s licence.

Solid mechanical or handyman confidence — you’re not afraid of tools.

Strong communicator and natural team leader.

Comfort with computers, apps, and admin tasks.

Bonus Points For:

Experience in automotive, rentals, tourism, or hospitality.

Team leadership or supervisory background.

A passion for travel, vans, and life on the road.

What You’ll Get

On-Target Earnings (OTE): $80,000 - $85,000 (and that’s in your control — your results = your earnings)

Base salary: $70,000 + super + monthly commissions and performance bonuses (OTE $80,000–$85,000+)

Monthly commission on insurance, add-ons, and vehicle sales — no cap.

Monthly performance bonus – up to $500

Free annual international campervan hire

Company-paid mobile plan and access to campervan use (when available)

Full training, ongoing support, and a supportive global team

What This Isn’t

Not a desk job — you’ll be in the yard, on the floor, in the vans.

Not for clock-watchers — you set the pace and rhythm.

Not for babysitters — we want proactive, self-managing leaders.
