What's the role? At Hilti, we believe in adding good talent to our business and are always on the lookout for our next Sales Account Managers! We are now taking expressions of interest for future Sales Account Manager roles within Auckland as well as across the North Island. This is not just an "apply and be contacted months later" kind of process; we actively screen and communicate with our talent pools as we believe finding your next career is a journey, and we want to ensure it's a good one! Your next role as an Account Manager at Hilti will involve direct customer contact, creation and development of customers, implementation of sales strategies, and introduction of new products to customers and new markets. If you thrive on supporting existing customers and have the drive to captivate and capture new customer partners, this is the role for you! What does the role involve? As an Account Manager, no two days are the same, but you'll spend most of your time visiting our customers, wherever they're busy working, to find out how we can help them and demonstrating Hilti solutions. Far from traditional cold calling, it's about nurturing and fostering relationships, developing contacts on-site with warm customers, and helping them find the most innovative and cost-efficient solutions for their needs. You'll need to be happy to get your hands dirty but also be able to adapt your approach to the customer in front of you; it could be a senior management team one day and a sole trader the next. You could find yourself on construction sites or in offices and warehouses. This means rolling up your sleeves to demonstrate some of the most pioneering products in the industry, along with all the services and after-care that come with the Hilti name. You'll be part of a supportive, field-based regional team who are only a phone call away, but you'll be working mostly independently, so you need to be comfortable with building relationships remotely and motivating yourself. We'll teach you everything you need to know about our products, the IT systems you'll use on the job, and advanced sales skills; you just need to be motivated to learn. What do we offer? We really value our people, and we've worked hard to develop a reward package that reflects this. Some of our benefits include: Genuine career advancement (more than 80% of all leadership roles are filled internally) Competitive salary and above-average performance bonus Life Insurance cover Private Health Insurance and Employee Assistance Programme Paid birthday leave Paid leave to work on charitable projects Wellness subsidy to support an activity for your physical or mental health What you need is: Customer-facing/sales experience gained in any industry Construction industry experience a plus Technical qualification preferred Mature, assertive attitude and commitment to your career development with good communication skills Ability to demonstrate that you're a flexible team player with a hunger to learn Resilience and adaptability to environments such as construction sites and residential site developments A full, clean driving license Full working rights in New Zealand Why should you apply?
