National Sales Manager

(Not the armchair kind — the one who leads from the front)

Location: Head Office, Port Moresby

PNG Motors is one of Papua New Guinea’s most recognised automotive groups, representing Ford, Mazda, Hyundai, Suzuki, JMC and Joylong. We operate nationally, sell vehicles built for real PNG conditions, and run a sales business that values discipline, trust, and long-term results over noise and hype.

This is a senior leadership role for someone who understands that strong sales performance is built through people, systems, and consistency — not slogans.

What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll be responsible for leading and coordinating sales performance across the entire PNG Motors network. That means setting national sales strategy, aligning targets across branches, and working closely with branch managers, sales managers, marketing, finance, and senior leadership to drive sustainable growth.

Your role is to create clarity and momentum. You’ll review performance, identify gaps, and step in where support or correction is needed. You’ll coach sales leaders, lift standards, improve forecasting accuracy, and ensure pricing, margins, and reporting are properly controlled.

You won’t be managing from a distance. This role requires presence — visiting branches, understanding local market realities, and making sure national direction actually works on the ground. Strategy matters, but execution matters more.

Who This Suits

This role suits an experienced automotive sales leader who has managed multi-branch or national operations and earned credibility with sales teams. You’re confident making decisions, comfortable holding people accountable, and able to balance ambition with realism in the PNG market.

You’re not afraid of numbers, but you also understand people. You know when to push, when to support, and when to step in personally. If you believe leadership is a title rather than a responsibility, this won’t be the right role.

If you set a target — you back it with a plan.
If performance slips — you address it.
If a standard is agreed — you enforce it.

Why PNG Motors

PNG Motors is not a short-term operation. We’re a national business with real scale, strong global brands, proper aftersales support, and a long-term commitment to the market.

Our footprint spans Port Moresby, Lae, Kokopo, Mount Hagen, and Kimbe, giving this role genuine reach across the country. Decisions made at Head Office don’t sit on paper — they flow through branches, people, and performance on the ground.

Senior leaders here are trusted to lead properly, make decisions, and shape how the business performs nationally. If you want a role where you can genuinely influence outcomes across multiple regions — not just report on them — this is it.
