Your Role

This role blends account management with a strong new business “hunter” focus. You’ll manage an established network of 20+ dealers across the South Island while actively identifying and converting new opportunities — particularly in competitive regions like Canterbury.

You’ll be trusted to run your territory with autonomy, building dealer capability and loyalty, and increasing penetration with builders, merchants, group home builders and project customers.

What you'll be doing

• Own and grow an established South Island dealer network while acting as a trusted commercial advisor
• Hunt and win new business across builders, merchants and project channels, with a focus on Canterbury
• Deliver consultative, solution-led sales through joint visits, pricing support and pipeline development
• Run your territory with high autonomy, balancing travel, planning and virtual engagement

Our Benefits

• Let us support you with Life, total permanent disability and Health Insurance
• Exclusive discounts on DuluxGroup products and partner offers
• We will match up to 4% of your salary to Kiwisaver
• 20 weeks paid parental leave (primary carers) and 2 weeks partner leave
• Market leading learning, development and career pathways
• Access to our Wellbeing Hub and full EAP support
• Recognition programs that celebrate your impact    

What we're looking for

We’re open-minded on industry background — sales capability matters most

• Proven success in B2B sales, ideally with solution/consultative selling (not commodity selling).
• Strong prospecting and “hunter” capability — you enjoy winning new business
• Excellent relationship-building and stakeholder management skills
• High autonomy, time management and territory planning discipline
• Energy, resilience, and a competitive, action-oriented mindset

This could suit an experienced BDM or a high-potential seller ready for a bigger territory and more ownership.
