About the Role : We’re looking for a high-performing, hands-on Regional Manager to grow our Service & Maintenance division in Gauteng.

Our current focus is on the installation and maintenance of the company’s water-saving technology across commercial buildings — shopping malls, schools, libraries, retail centres, and major property portfolios. Building on this strong base, we’re now expanding to offer a complete commercial plumbing service, becoming our clients’ one-stop plumbing partner.

This is an exciting senior opportunity for a commercially driven, technically skilled professional who combines deep plumbing expertise with proven success in winning new business, managing teams, and delivering projects to the highest standard.

  • Win and manage preventive and reactive maintenance contracts (including SLAs) for blue-chip and multi-site clients.
  • Build and maintain strong, long-term relationships with property owners, facilities managers, and contractors.
  • Survey and assess projects in person before pricing, ensuring accurate scopes, material take-offs, and costings.
  • Prepare competitive, commercially sound quotations for projects large and small.
  • Once awarded, brief and translate jobs clearly to the plumbing and execution teams, ensuring understanding of timelines, specifications, and customer expectations.
  • Oversee scheduling, resourcing, and on-site delivery to ensure quality, safety, and efficiency.
  • Collaborate with internal teams in Operations, Procurement to ensure consistent service delivery.
  • Report regularly on performance, pipeline, and regional growth.

What You’ll Bring

  • Qualified Plumber with an extensive plumbing background, ideally having worked “on the tools” before moving into management.
  • Proven experience running or managing commercial plumbing or maintenance businesses.
  • Demonstrable success surveying, pricing, and delivering complex projects.
  • Strong track record of winning new business and securing long-term service contracts with blue-chip organisations.
  • Excellent communication and leadership skills — able to brief, motivate, and manage teams effectively.
  • Deep understanding of commercial plumbing systems, materials, and pricing structures.
  • A driven, hands-on, and resilient approach — thrives under pressure and leads by example.
  • Based in Gauteng, with a valid driver’s licence and own vehicle.
  • A strong existing network of commercial or property clients in the region.
  • Personal Attributes

  • Entrepreneurial mindset with strong commercial acumen.
  • Practical, detail-focused, and proactive.
  • Excellent communicator — clear, structured, and confident.
  • Conscientious and hardworking — takes pride in delivering quality work.
  • Comfortable working at pace and “rolling up your sleeves” when needed.
  • What We Offer

  • A senior leadership role in a fast-growing, innovative company.
  • Competitive base salary plus performance-based incentives.
  • The autonomy to shape and grow a regional business.
  • A collaborative, forward-thinking culture built on trust and accountability.
