We are seeking those with a minimum of 2 years of company formation and business set up experience to be part of a growing organisation with several subsidiaries.

As GM you will oversee all functions including sales, customer service, marketing and finance with up to 6 direct Department Head reports and an overall headcount of approximately 35 employees.
