Regional Sales Manager

About the role

This role has the scope to truly change an industry, build a world-class sales function and will be backed by a world-class team to implement growth strategies. These don't come around often.

We are searching for an innovative, motivated, high-performing Regional Sales Manager to lead Halter's growth in the Lower South Island. This is an opportunity to be part of a positive global disruption to our food production system, to pioneer groundbreaking change and, specifically, impact the lives of Dairy farmers.

• Training and Development: We want this role to be a training and enablement subject matter expert for all of Halter. We want you to drive continuous skill enhancement and alignment with company objectives and foster a culture of knowledge sharing and collaboration within the organisation.
• People Management: You will be responsible for a motivated, high-performing team. You will be leading, providing clear expectations and regular feedback to ensure each individual and the team are achieving their potential.
• Growing New Business: We want you to have your own region, which we believe helps you support, lead and role model for your broader sales team. As part of this, you would be responsible for managing a pipeline through to close, including prospecting, qualifying, executing a consultative sales process and successfully negotiating contracts with customers. Your target would be capped at 50% or 75% of a typical rep's target to reflect the broader work you are doing on people management and sales leadership.
