About The Opportunity

Due to continued growth, we currently have an exciting opportunity for a Business Development Manager to join our team in Hobart, focusing on growing our commercial painting business and cross-selling other property services to existing customers. 

This is not a passive role - you'll be responsible for driving growth across Hobart and the Southern Region and will be expected to proactively identify and win new business, while also managing and growing existing accounts. This is a true business development role – perfect for someone who thrives on building relationships, chasing new opportunities, and delivering long-term service solutions (not just one-off product sales).

You'll be supported by a comprehensive onboarding and training program focused on developing your paint industry knowledge, sales skills, and estimating capabilities - setting you up for success from day one. 

Key Responsibilities

• Manage and grow the business throughout the Southern Region
• Strengthen relationships with existing clients, ensuring their needs are met and exceeded
• Proactively identify and pursue new business opportunities through cold calling, networking, and market research
• Utilize your sound sales history, particularly in trades and services, to effectively communicate the value of our products and services to potential customers
• Prepare accurate sales estimates and develop professional proposals that showcase our offerings
• Leverage your previous experience with Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems to effectively manage customer interactions, track sales activities, and maintain accurate records

About You

To succeed in this role, you'll need more than just a great sales history. We're looking for someone with the BDM mindset - someone who takes initiative, chases opportunities, and builds value through relationships.

You'll likely have:

• Experience growing revenue from both new and existing clients
• Strong relationship management and account development skills
• A genuine drive to hunt for new business - cold calling, networking, and prospecting come naturally to you
• A mindset focused on solutions and service, not transactional selling
• The ability to maintain a strong and profitable sales pipeline
• Confidence managing full sales cycles, from lead generation to close
• Excellent influencing, communication & presentation skills
• Ability to obtain a WWVP
