· Ensure regulatory compliance, governance standards and customer outcomes are embedded throughout the sales operation, working closely with Governance & Oversight teams.

· Represent franchise partner sales performance within senior leadership forums, providing clear recommendations and influencing business strategy.

· Own the performance, capability and development of the District Sales Manager team, ensuring the right skills and behaviours are in place to deliver current and future business objectives.
