My client is a key player in the veterinary wholesale market. Known for agility, reliability and building true partnerships that add value for their customers. The company supplies clinics nationwide with a broad range of products, supported by strong supplier relationships and an easy-to-engage operating model. This business has a huge track record of growth and we now need a highly motivated BDM to penetrate Auckland and UNI independent clinics. You’ll be joining a motivated, customer-focused team backed by a passionate General Manager who empowers his people with trust, autonomy and support when needed.
The Role
This is an exciting opportunity for a growth oriented BDM - someone who thrives on opening doors, asking for the sale and staying curious and persistent even when the answer is “not yet.” You’ll be energised by creating new opportunities. Currently minimal overnight travel required but this may change as you grow the territory. Note the head office is Christchurch based, in this role you’ll WFH and be mostly field based in front of customers.
Your focus will be on:
- Driving new business across the Auckland and Upper North Island veterinary market
- Growing share of wallet as you build your portfolio of customers
- Building strong, trusting relationships with independent clinic operators (a major area of opportunity)
- Partnering with the internal team as well as supplier reps to stay across product availability and to create points of value for clinics
What You’ll Bring
- A growth mindset, persistence and a want to own your patch. A true business developer.
- Proven success in new business B2B sales
- Familiarity with veterinary or agri sectors could be a benefit but not essential.
- A strong relationship builder, able to uncover pain points and shift behaviours to win accounts. You’re trusted and for good reason. Strong sales disciplines.
- Grounded, pragmatic and flexible to meet changing demands
- Self-starter attitude with a collaborative approach
