About the Opportunity
Our client is a well-established global manufacturer of construction and heavy machinery, supplying wheel loaders, excavators, forklifts, and other industrial equipment to international markets for nearly two decades.
They are now entering the Australian market for the very first time, launching a new branch in Acacia Ridge, Brisbane. This is an exciting chance to join the business at foundation stage and play a key role in building, shaping, and growing the brand locally.

* Build and manage a high-performing sales team

* Help shape the long-term market presence of the brand in Australia
If you are passionate about business development and thrive in a start-up environment, this is your chance to make a major impact.
Key Responsibilities
* Develop and execute sales and market-entry strategies
* Identify and engage distributors, dealers, and direct customers
* Promote a full range of construction machinery and equipment
* Represent the brand at trade shows, conferences, and client meetings
* Provide sales reporting, forecasting, and market insights
* Support pricing, positioning, and marketing initiatives
* Recruit, lead, and mentor future Sales Advisors
* Assist with setting up and launching the new branch
About You
* Proven sales or business development experience within heavy machinery, construction equipment, industrial machinery, or related sectors
* Strong industry network across construction, mining, industrial, or agricultural sectors (preferred)
* Self-driven, entrepreneurial, and comfortable working autonomously
* Excellent communicator with strong negotiation and relationship-building skills
* Motivated by building something from the ground up
* Current driver's licence and willingness to travel locally
What's on Offer
* A rare chance to join a global brand at entry stage into Australia
* Significant influence in shaping and growing a new branch
* Competitive salary + commissions
* Long-term career progression as the business expands nationally
