General Manager Roles

One of the many plus points about being a General Manager is the fact that you’ll be involved in the workings of the company at every level.

On any given day, you might be recruiting a Customer Services Assistant, analyzing long-term trends in the market, attending a global strategy meeting with the Board of Directors and trying to decide who is responsible for cleaning the factory floors.

Put simply, your presence could be needed anywhere and everywhere.

And while the responsibilities can be many and the pressure can be immense at times, the rewards can make it all worthwhile.

General Managers play a pivotal role in any company, the buzz that comes from getting things right will be special, and of course the salary and benefits package will always be on the high side.

Jobs at this level are highly sought-after, and it’s easy to see why.

Here in Singapore, you’ll find an extensive selection of tempting vacancies, many of them with blue chip corporations that have evolved into world-famous market leaders.

General Managers here command a great deal of respect both within the company and without, and can expect to have a major influence on the strategies that their employers choose to adopt.

Could you be perfect General Manager material?

You’ll need to display strong qualities to be a success as a General Manager.

Being an effective people manager will be a must, as will be a sound understanding of both the local and international business scene.

Experience in a specific sector could be an advantage on many occasions, but if you've shown yourself to be an excellent General Manager in construction, for example, you could easily switch your skills to something like leisure, transport or food.

It's also worth pointing out that a background in a number of other roles could be seen as advantageous, including:

• Operations Manager
• Factory Manager
• Chief Executive Officer
• Operations Director

Sector-relevant qualifications will be a help, of course, but they aren’t likely to be as important as the ability to show you can lead, develop and inspire.

The first step should involve setting up an email job alert so you can find out about the best vacancies at the earliest stage.

It’s also a good idea to forward your CV on to our team.

We look forward to getting to know you better soon.
