Melbourne | Hybrid | 

Run it. Grow it. Own the outcome.

We're looking for a commercially driven Managing Director to take full ownership of an established and profitable Managed IT Services business.
This is a genuine MD role. Reporting directly to the CEO of the parent group, you'll own the strategy, P&L, clients, team, go-to-market and growth plan. There is no layer of management between you and the owner, and you'll have the autonomy to make the decisions.

The ambition is significant: grow the business and triple revenue and EBITDA.

• Established, profitable MSP with a loyal client base
• Six-person engineering team, including three senior engineers
• Strong culture and mature service delivery, SLAs and tooling
• Finance and marketing support from the wider group
• AI and automation already deployed across the business
• Access to genuine cyber security expertise through the parent group
• A new brand launching ahead of your arrival
• Investment available behind a credible growth strategy

You'll be responsible for:

• Building and executing the growth strategy
• Personally developing pipeline and winning new MSP clients
• Owning the P&L, pricing, margins and profitability
• Developing the proposition and route to market
• Growing revenue across the existing client base
• Leading the engineering team and service delivery
• Building referral, partner and marketing channels
• Strengthening processes, automation and operational performance
• Owning senior client relationships and major issues

What we are looking for:
We're looking for someone who has personally grown a business or significant revenue line and can demonstrate the numbers.
You'll need:

• A proven track record of revenue growth
• Ideally experience within an MSP
• Strong personal sales and business development capability
• Experience building and executing go-to-market strategy
• P&L and commercial ownership
• Strong leadership and operational skills
• A hands-on, entrepreneurial mindset
• Confidence working autonomously and wearing multiple hats
• A genuine interest in using AI and automation to improve how a business operates
