Business NEPEAN

Job Description

Some leaders manage businesses. Others build them.

For over 50 years, NEPEAN has challenged the standard — becoming a globally recognised, Australian-owned leader in mining equipment, industrial manufacturing and engineering solutions. We’ve built our name by taking on complex and different projects and earned an enviable reputation.

Now, we’re handing the keys to the next chapter.

This is a rare opportunity to step into the role of

General Manager

and shape the future of

NEPEAN Engineering Pty Ltd

— a business with deep capability, strong foundations, and serious runway for growth.

The Opportunity This isn’t a maintenance role. It’s a growth mission.

You’ll lead NEPEAN Engineering into its next era of innovation, expansion and commercial success from our modern Prestons, NSW facility.

You will:

Set the vision

Drive the strategy

Own the numbers

Build the culture

Create the momentum

You’ll have the backing of the broader NEPEAN portfolio — and the autonomy to build something exceptional.

This is your chance to leave a legacy.

Who We’re Looking For We want a true entrepreneur in a leader’s seat.

Someone who sees opportunity where others see complexity.

Someone who can turn ideas into revenue.

Someone who attracts customers and wins contracts.

Someone with the technical and manufacturing credibility to win the trust of customers and make good business decisions.

Someone who prefers to be hands on - not act like a “typical” executive.

Someone who isn’t afraid to challenge “how we’ve always done it.”

You might have:

Built or scaled a business

Transformed a division

Launched a new product line

Secured and delivered major contracts

Taken calculated risks that paid off

You are: Innovative You solve complex problems with commercially smart solutions. You spot gaps in the market and move fast to capture them.

Disruptive (in the best way) You challenge the status quo. You make decisive, calculated calls. You think long-term and build competitive advantage.

Outcome-Driven Strategy isn’t theory for you — it’s execution. You deliver revenue growth, margin improvement and sustainable performance.

A Culture Builder You create high-performance environments. You align people to vision. You lift standards. You make teams better than they thought they could be.

Why This Role is Different This isn’t just a job. It’s a platform.

You’ll have:

A respected brand with 50+ years of credibility

Established engineering and manufacturing capability

Strong internal networks across the NEPEAN portfolio

The freedom to innovate

The mandate to grow

If you’ve ever wanted to run a business without starting from scratch — this is your moment.

For the Ambitious If you’re looking for comfort, this isn’t it. If you’re looking for impact, ownership and growth — welcome.

At NEPEAN, innovation is encouraged. Careers are developed. Standards are challenged. Results matter.

Build something that outlasts you. Unlock your potential. Challenge the standard. #J-18808-Ljbffr
