Account Manager

  • Established South Island territory with repeat business

  • Technical product focus in a B2B environment

  • Competitive salary package + vehicle

An opportunity has become available for an experienced Account Manager to join a well-established and growing industrial equipment supplier servicing commercial and industrial clients across the South Island.

This role is primarily focused on managing and developing a large, established customer base, with a smaller but important focus on identifying new business opportunities. The portfolio is built on repeat, relationship-driven trade, making this a role suited to someone who values long-term partnerships over transactional sales.

You will take ownership of the full South Island territory, working autonomously while remaining closely connected to a supportive internal team.

The Role

You will be responsible for maintaining strong relationships with existing clients, driving repeat business, and identifying areas for growth within accounts.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Managing and growing a well-established portfolio of clients

  • Building long-term, value-driven relationships across multiple industries

  • Identifying and developing new business opportunities within the South Island

  • Conducting regular face-to-face customer visits and site engagement

  • Preparing pricing, quotes, and service proposals

  • Coordinating with internal teams to ensure seamless service delivery

  • Monitoring market activity and identifying growth opportunities

  • Achieving sales targets while maintaining high levels of customer satisfaction

About You

You are commercially minded, relationship-focused, and comfortable managing a large geographic territory. You enjoy autonomy, understand the importance of service consistency, and are confident handling technical product discussions.

You will ideally bring:

  • Proven experience in an Account Manager or B2B sales role

  • Experience with technical or industrial products (highly regarded)

  • A strong understanding of repeat, relationship-based business models

  • Excellent communication and negotiation skills

  • A proactive, organised, and self-motivated approach

  • Confidence managing a large South Island territory

  • A full, clean driver’s licence

What’s on Offer

  • A stable role within a respected and established supply business

  • Ownership of the South Island territory

  • Strong existing client base with repeat revenue

  • Competitive salary package including vehicle and tools of trade

  • Supportive team culture with long-term career opportunities
