Job description

Nofence has built the world’s first precision livestock management platform for livestock. The technology consists of a solar-powered collar that communicates with an app over the cellular network. Through the app, livestock producers can set up a new grazing area in seconds, and the long days of installing and moving fences are officially over! Livestock can graze longer and in more areas, and the owner will always have visibility of their location. This means better profitability and more free time for producers as well as improved animal welfare.

With a strong foundation of 10,000+ customers globally, we are expanding in the US. To support this growth, we’re looking for a Sales Specialist to join our dynamic team.

We’re building a remote-friendly team across the country and currently hiring across the US.

This position will be located in the state of South Dakota.

Join us on the journey to revolutionize agriculture and create a better everyday life for livestock producers and their animals!

About the role

Your mission will be to sell Nofence, a precision livestock management platform to US producers.

You will reach out to and follow up with potential and existing customers, coming from inbound inquiries and face to face producer outreach.

Above all, we prioritize building strong customer relationships. This means understanding our customers’ needs and guiding them to make the most of our product. While we provide full product training, previous experience working with livestock producers is a great advantage.
The right candidate is self-motivated, energetic, and hardworking, preferably with a background from agriculture. As a part of our team you will have the opportunity to grow together with the company, as the opportunities for development are endless both for our product and our employees!

About Nofence

Managing livestock has always been a challenge. Humanity has tried everything from herding with dogs to walling the animals in with barbed wire, electric, and wooden fences, but these are costly and time-consuming solutions and often in conflict with the local wildlife. It has also left vast areas of potential pasture overgrown and underutilized.

Until now.

Enter virtual fences. What started as a small group of farmers and engineers with a big idea has become Nofence – the world’s first virtual fencing solution for livestock. Curious about how it works? Find out more here.

Our way of working is continuously evolving, and you will have the opportunity to make an impact on how we do things. We are passionate about product development, animal welfare, producer welfare, and sustainable agriculture. As our colleague, you will be part of an exciting company with enormous ambitions for growth in the US. We genuinely believe our grazing technology can be the biggest technological change in agriculture since the tractor!
