Job description

Overview

About the Client: A well-established engineering group is expanding into the Agricultural Solutions sector, launching a new division dedicated to plantation tools and solutions.

This is an exciting opportunity for a driven sales professional to pioneer growth, expand distribution networks, and build market presence across Malaysia with future expansion into Indonesia and Thailand.

Role Overview

As Sales Manager, you will:

• Promote and sell agricultural tools (including harvesting sickles), achieving monthly and quarterly sales targets.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with plantation clients, distributors, and farmers, ensuring after-sales support and tailored solutions.
• Develop new distribution channels, particularly in rural and plantation areas.
• Lead product promotions, demonstrations, and awareness campaigns.
• Conduct market research, track competitor activities, and recommend strategies to stay competitive.
• Prepare quotations, negotiate contracts, and successfully close sales deals.
• Represent the company at trade shows, exhibitions, and industry events.

Ideal Candidate Profile

• 3–5 years of proven sales experience in agriculture, plantations, or related industries.
• Strong networks with palm oil & rubber plantations.
• Background in fertilizers, agro-chemicals, crop protection, or farm tools/equipment.
• Demonstrated success in distributor/channel management.
• Willingness to travel extensively (Malaysia + region).
• Bilingual (Bahasa & English) preferred.

Why This Role Stands Out

Plantation tools such as harvesting sickles may look simple but they are indispensable. Every plantation relies on them daily, making this role critical for building bulk sales, long-term supply contracts, and strong distributor relationships.

As the first Sales Manager in this new division, you will have the opportunity to shape strategy, establish market entry, and drive regional growth.

If you are a motivated sales professional with strong agricultural networks, this is a compelling opportunity to contribute to the division’s growth.
