Job description

Role overview

An opportunity exists for an experienced sales professional to join a high-energy, collaborative team in the hygiene division, supporting the Sunshine Coast and Brisbane area from Brisbane. The role suits someone with strong interpersonal skills, clear communication, and a high level of drive and enthusiasm.

You will manage your own territory while promoting a range of hygiene services, with responsibility for growing revenue, protecting existing business, and building long-term relationships with key stakeholders.

What you will do

  • Look after an established customer base and identify opportunities to expand sales through a better understanding of client needs.
  • Win new accounts and help grow the existing portfolio.
  • Actively generate fresh business opportunities.
  • Carry out site inspections to make sure services and operations are running as expected on customer sites.
  • Build and sustain strong business relationships with contacts across major accounts.
  • Create tailored proposals based on customer requirements, including suitable product, service, and pricing choices.
  • Handle first-level operational and account-related queries, resolving issues directly where possible and escalating when needed.
  • Record customer interactions and details accurately in internal systems and applications.
  • Track competitor activity and market changes, share important updates with management, and stay informed through direct customer contact.
  • Work closely with the operations team to ensure services meet customer expectations.
  • Conduct regular business reviews with clients.
  • Deliver against sales quotas, retention goals, and revenue targets.

What we are looking for

  • Prior experience in a similar external sales or account management position.
  • Strong customer service capability.
  • Confidence in cold calling and developing new business.
  • The ability to balance fieldwork with quick client response times.
  • Solid selling and negotiation skills.
  • Ability to build rapport with stakeholders at different levels.
  • Excellent organisation and time management, with the ability to prioritise and meet deadlines.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • Comfort working in a fast-moving environment and managing multiple tasks at once.
  • High attention to detail.

Additional requirements

Applicants without prior external account management experience are not suitable for this position.

The selected candidate must successfully complete a pre-employment medical assessment, drug and alcohol screening, and background checks.

About the team

You will join a friendly, driven, and competitive group that is focused on achieving strong results. The organisation is a global specialist in pest management, hygiene, and indoor plant care, with a team culture built around helping protect people, improving lives, and supporting the environment every day.
