Job description

Our client is an undisputed global market leader in specialised screening and separation technology, setting the worldwide engineering benchmark for over a century. Delivering proprietary infrastructure to vital sectors across the globe, their systems underpin critical operations across groundwater security, water wells, mining water, large scale agriculture, municipal supply, and geothermal energy.

Backing their established Australian operations with an international engineering footprint, they combine premium technical capability with a grounded, collaborative culture committed to quality, integrity, and sustainable resource management.

THE POSITION

As the Business Development Manager (ANZ), you will spearhead strategic growth across Australia and New Zealand, with a central focus on driving high volume, repeatable manufacturing orders. This role requires a proactive business development hunter who can expand market share by securing new customer accounts, deepening distributor partnerships, and influencing project specifications across the groundwater, drilling, and mining water sectors.

Acting as a trusted technical advisor, you will engage directly with major end users, drilling contractors, regional distribution partners, hydrogeologists, and engineering consultants (EPCs), while working in tight synergy with an experienced internal sales and technical team.

Your focus will involve:

• Identifying, pursuing, and converting high volume manufacturing supply opportunities for specialised water well screens and groundwater systems across ANZ.
• Proactively hunting new business opportunities, securing new accounts, and expanding market share across target territories.
• Partnering closely with distributors to build their capability in demand forecasting, inventory management, and forward planning for container volume requirements.
• Engaging with major end users, drilling contractors, and engineering specifiers to embed proprietary screening products into project design standards.
• Navigating commercial supply chain dynamics, including ocean freight, container volume optimisation, and landed cost modelling to structure competitive commercial proposals.

ABOUT YOU

We are seeking a driven, commercially sharp sales professional with a hunter mindset, solid technical capability, and structured business discipline. You are resilient, even keeled, and equally comfortable having down to earth conversations in a regional drilling yard as you are negotiating enterprise supply agreements with corporate engineering firms and asset owners.

To be successful in this role, you will bring:

• Proven track record in B2B technical sales and new business development, with demonstrated success growing high volume, repeatable product sales.
• Solid technical grounding in hydrogeology, geology, environmental sciences, groundwater systems, water well drilling, or mining water infrastructure.
• Relevant tertiary qualifications in Business, Engineering, Geology, Hydrogeology, Environmental Science, or a related discipline are preferred.
• Commercial acumen across containerised supply, freight logistics, landed cost calculations, and customer demand forecasting.
• Exceptional negotiation, presentation, and relationship building skills, with the ability to influence technical decision makers and overcome market resistance with engineering credibility.
• A collaborative, team first mindset with the flexibility to undertake domestic travel across regional and national territories as required.

BENEFITS

• Attractive remuneration package plus superannuation and car allowance.
• Lucrative, structured commission scheme with substantial earning potential.
• Represent the premier, globally recognised product brand that drillers and engineers actively know, specify, and trust.
• Directly contribute to high impact infrastructure projects vital to regional water security, mining dewatering, and environmental sustainability.
• Work alongside dedicated inside sales specialists handling estimating and technical admin so you can focus on driving customer engagement and closing business.
