Job description

Jotun Australia is seeking a motivated Sales Account Representative – Protective and Marine Coatings to develop customer relationships and support sales growth across Queensland.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone ready to take the next step from internal sales, trade sales, customer service or an early field-sales role. Previous coatings experience is advantageous but not essential—we provide comprehensive onboarding, product training and ongoing support.

Candidates with established account management or relevant industry experience are also encouraged to apply.

About the role

Based at our Berrinba office and reporting to the National Sales Manager – Marine & Protective Coatings, you will manage and develop relationships with existing customers while identifying new customers, projects and sales opportunities across Queensland.

With support from experienced sales and technical colleagues, you will build the product knowledge needed to understand customer requirements and recommend practical, commercially appropriate solutions.

What we offer

• Generous annual car allowance
• Annual leave loading
• Company paid income protection insurance
• Comprehensive onboarding and ongoing product training
• Career development through Jotun Academy and on-the-job learning
• Support from experienced sales and technical colleagues
• An inclusive, diverse and supportive team environment
• The opportunity to develop your career with a leading global coatings manufacturer

What you’ll do

• Manage and grow relationships with existing customers across your region.
• Identify prospective customers, projects and new business opportunities.
• Conduct regular customer, project and site visits.
• Understand customer needs and recommend suitable Jotun products and solutions.
• Prepare quotations, proposals, presentations and customer follow-ups.
• Work toward agreed sales, margin and market-share objectives.
• Maintain accurate customer and sales-opportunity information in Jotun’s systems.
• Monitor market conditions, competitor activity and changing customer requirements.
• Represent Jotun professionally at customer meetings, industry events and trade activities.

What we’re looking for

You do not need to be a coatings expert. We are interested in your sales potential, customer approach and willingness to learn.

Ideally, you will bring:

• Strong communication and relationship-building skills.
• A proactive approach to finding opportunities and following up with customers.
• Confidence meeting customers and developing new business.
• Good organisation, time-management and problem-solving skills.
• An interest in learning technical products and their applications.
• Experience in coatings, construction products, industrial supplies, mining services, marine products, hardware or a related sector would be advantageous but is not essential.
• Willingness to travel throughout the allocated territory.
• Unrestricted Australian working rights.

You will join a global company guided by the values of Loyalty, Care, Respect and Boldness. We invest in our people through structured learning, practical experience and long‑term development opportunities.
