Area Sales Manager in Brisbane

Chamberlain Group makes the technology behind more than 50 million garage doors worldwide. We’re the proud owners of the Merlin, Grifco and Chamberlain brands you’ve seen in garages and major venues across Australia. We sell through a network of dealers, and our Area Sales Managers are the people who keep those relationships strong, put the business cases together and close the deals that keep things moving. We’re looking for our next Area Sales Manager to own the Queensland/NT territory.

What you’ll actually be doing:

• Catching up with your dealers regularly, building the kind of relationship where they ring you first.
• Chasing new business: spotting opportunities, running the numbers and closing deals within our pricing guidelines.
• Looking after your accounts properly, with a plan to grow together.
• Bringing customers the market and product knowledge they need to make good decisions - pricing trends, competitor moves, what’s new.
• Coordinating with our internal teams to make sure every presentation, proposal and account setup lands smoothly.
• Reporting on what’s happening in your territory - call plans, results, competitor activity and where the next opportunity is coming from.

What we’re looking for:

This is an individual role with no people management: you’ll look after your own dealers and results, not a team. You don’t need to have sold garage door motors before. What we do need is someone who:

• Has 5+ years of sales experience, ideally within a technical, light industrial or manufacturing environment.
• Has a genuine track record of winning new business, not just managing what’s already on the books.
• Can talk and negotiate well, whether in a boardroom or on the road.
• Can work autonomously, plan their own week, and stay productive without someone checking in.
• Knows their way around mechanics and tech well enough to talk product with confidence, and is comfortable on a computer.
• Sells by listening first - working out what a dealer actually needs before pitching anything.

If you’re persistent, self-motivated and take genuine pride in following through on what you say you’ll do, you’ll fit right in.

What it’s like to work here:

You’ll get the backing of a global brand - product training, support teams, a company vehicle - with the autonomy of running your own territory. The people who do well in this role are self-starters who treat their patch like their own business, while staying closely connected to a team that has their back.
