At Gippsland Pest Management, we’re not your typical pest control company.
We’re a growing, family-owned business that services residential homes, schools, childcare centres, commercial facilities, government sites and high-compliance clients across Gippsland. As we continue to grow, we’re looking for the right person to help lead our office team and build the next chapter of our business.
This is a newly created role and a genuine leadership opportunity.
We’re looking for someone who loves bringing order to complexity, developing people, improving systems and helping a team perform at its best.

You’ll work closely with our business owners, Key Accounts Coordinator, Finance & Executive Support Coordinator and Field Operations Lead to ensure our clients receive exceptional service and our team has the support they need to succeed.
This isn’t a role where you’ll spend your day buried in paperwork.

- Supporting implementation of new systems and technology
- Reducing reliance on knowledge held in individual team members’ heads
- Working closely with leadership on business improvement projects

You’ll likely thrive in this role if you:
-
A proven ability to lead and support people, fostering a positive and accountable team culture.
- Are highly organised but practical
- Love improving systems and finding better ways of doing things
- Stay calm under pressure
- Can balance empathy with accountability

Experience in developing and documenting standardised operating procedures (SOPs).
- Be part of a growing and progressive Gippsland business
- Genuine leadership opportunity
- Work closely with the business owners
- Help shape the future structure of the company
- Supportive team environment
