Established in 1949, HG Molenaar is a diversified industrial services and manufacturing company, comprising of various operating divisions primarily in the food and beverage sector. We are looking to hire a commercially strong and experienced **general manager** to oversee our Sinclair and Brown division.

Sinclair is a UK-based company, whose business is focused on supplying labels and label applicators to fresh produce packhouses globally. Brown International, a company based in Florida USA, is a leading supplier of oil and juice extraction equipment to industrial citrus processing plants.

HG Molenaar has represented Sinclair in South Africa for over 25 years and became the agent for Brown’s South Africa business in 2007. HG Molenaar has a well-established sales and service network that supports the operations of these two businesses, enabling us to serve our Sinclair and Brown customers in the key citrus and deciduous growing areas of South Africa.

The general manager will report to the director of the Sinclair and Brown division and will have responsibility for executing on the strategic goals of the business and will oversee all 25 employees in the division (label production, technical support and administration).

An overview of the role and key job requirements:

- An Agriculture, Economics or other business degree is preferable, but lack thereof is not a disqualifying factor
- 10+ years management experience
- A high level of spoken and written Afrikaans and English
- A proven track record of establishing and maintaining key business relationships, the ability to thrive in networking environments and a passion for customer service
- Excellent business acumen
- Leadership qualities, with the ability to motivate, lead and grow his/her team
- Strong negotiation and decision-making skills

- This is a **Paarl **based position, with approximately 25% of the general manager’s time spent visiting customers and personnel in the Western Cape, Eastern Cape and the northern provinces of South Africa and occasional overseas travel
- The general manager is responsible for managing the budget of the Sinclair and Brown division and annually presenting it to the board of directors
- Our decentralised operating model ensures that highly skilled and talented managers are recruited, after which they have the freedom to shape the division according to the strategic objectives of the business. The general manager will have the following managers reporting to him/her:

- A technical manager, who oversees a team of field technicians. (While a technical background would be useful, it is not mandatory for the general manager position)
- A factory manager, who oversees the production of fruit labels, will report to the general manager. (No prior experience in the print industry is required of the general manager)
