Job description

Agri Client Partner | Northern NSW AGRi – The Land Newspaper

Location: Northern NSW (Flexible / Hybrid options available)

Position Type: Full-Time

About Us

For over a century, The Land has been the heartbeat of rural and regional New South Wales. As Australia’s leading rural weekly newspaper and digital platform, we deliver vital news, market trends, and community stories to farmers, graziers, and agribusinesses.

We don’t just report on the land—we live it. Now, we’re looking for a sales driven, community-minded Agri Client Partner to help our local businesses and national brands thrive.

The Role

This isn’t your typical corporate sales gig. As an Agri Client Partner you will be the face of ACM Agri in Northern NSW, representing products such as The Land within your territory. You’ll manage a portfolio of existing clients while hitting the road to unearth new business opportunities across print, digital, and event sponsorship.

Key Responsibilities:

• Build & Nurture Relationships: Connect with local business owners, machinery dealerships, and corporate agribusinesses.
• Consultative Selling: Understand your clients’ unique goals and craft tailored advertising campaigns across our weekly print edition, website, and social media channels.
• Territory Management: Manage your own pipeline, from cold calling and pitching to ad booking and post-campaign reporting.
• On-the-Road Presence: Travel within your region to attend field days, and community events to network and flying the flag for ACM Agri.

What We Are Looking For

• The Gift of the Gab: You are a natural relationship builder who listens more than you talk.
• Sales Grit: Resilience, a strong work ethic, and the drive to hit monthly revenue targets.
• Ag Affinity: An understanding of (or a genuine passion for) regional Australia and the agricultural sector is highly desirable. If you know your way around a field day, you’ll fit right in.
• Tech Savvy: Comfortable pitching digital advertising solutions alongside traditional print.
• On the Move: A valid driver’s license is non-negotiable.

What’s in It for You?

• Competitive Salary + Commission: Your hard work directly impacts your paycheck.
• Tools for Success: Car allowance, laptop, and phone provided.
• Flexibility: A hybrid work environment that trusts you to manage your own schedule.
• Career Growth: Access to industry-leading training and career progression opportunities within a major media network.
• Community Impact: A role where you can genuinely support the economic growth of rural communities.
