Account Manager – Queenstown

About the company:
  
A well-established national supplier to the construction sector is expanding its South Island presence and creating a brand-new Account Manager role to support growth across the Southern Lakes region.
This is a rare opportunity to step into a growth territory with strong internal backing, genuine autonomy, and significant scope in an established industry.
If you’re commercially sharp, relationship-driven, and motivated by building something meaningful — we want to hear from you.
  
The Opportunity
  
Reporting to the South Island Regional Sales Manager, you’ll be responsible for developing and growing a portfolio of customers across the Southern Lakes district. This is a remote role combining strategic account development, new business acquisition, and trusted advisor-style relationship management. You’ll be supported by an established national operation, but success in this role will come from your initiative, resilience, and ability to create momentum in your market.
  
Key Responsibilities
  

• Developing strong, long-term client relationships
• Identifying and converting new business opportunities
• Managing a sales pipeline from prospecting through to close
• Delivering tailored solutions that add genuine customer value
• Representing a respected brand in a competitive market
• Collaborating with internal teams to ensure exceptional service delivery

  
Key Attributes
  
We’re deliberately open on background — what matters is how you operate.

• Proven success in a B2B sales or account management role
• Natural relationship-building ability and commercial awareness
• Drive, persistence, and a proactive mindset
• Confidence working autonomously in a remote environment
• Strong communication and influencing skills
• A genuine appetite to learn and grow

Construction or industry experience is not essential. Attitude, capability, and potential are.
  
What’s On Offer
  

• Newly created role with real ownership
• Remote working flexibility across the Southern Lakes region
• Supportive leadership and national infrastructure
• Competitive salary + company car + performance incentives
• Long-term career growth within a stable, successful business
