Employment
Full Time
Venue
Brisbane, QLD & Perth, WA
- Drive growth across software and professional services
- National role with direct exposure to senior leadership
- Clear pathway to a future Group Business Development Manager position
- Open to Brisbane or Perth based candidates (both willing to travel)
About the Opportunity
This is a unique opportunity to operate across both software and professional services, supporting clients within projects, construction and infrastructure environments across Australia.
Reporting directly to senior leadership, you will drive new business activity across a suite of software products and specialist consulting services. Opportunities may range from software licensing engagements through to advisory and project-based services supporting planning, project controls, commercial management and contract administration outcomes.
The role requires the ability to move comfortably between software sales and consultative business development, identifying opportunities, opening doors and working alongside technical specialists to convert client requirements into commercial outcomes.
Operating nationally, the position includes a particular focus on supporting growth in Western Australia and will involve regular travel as required.
About You
You are an experienced business development professional with a proven track record of generating new business and growing revenue. Your background is within professional services, B2B software or a combination of both. Exposure to construction, infrastructure, engineering, major projects or related sectors will be highly regarded.
You are a genuine sales hunter who enjoys creating opportunities, developing your own pipeline and engaging senior stakeholders. Resilient, self-motivated and commercially driven, you are comfortable operating autonomously and delivering results within a target-driven environment. Regular travel forms part of the role, and you are willing to travel as required to support business development activity and client engagement.
What’s on Offer
- A unique opportunity to work across both software products and professional services, creating exposure to multiple service offerings and revenue streams.
- Direct access to senior leadership and the opportunity to work alongside experienced technical specialists across a range of disciplines.
- A broad national remit supporting clients across projects, construction and infrastructure environments throughout Australia, including regular engagement with opportunities in Western Australia.
- A competitive remuneration package, including a commission structure linked to both software and professional services revenue.
- A clearly defined pathway for the role to evolve into a future Group Business Development Manager position, with the potential to build and lead a broader business development function as the model continues to develop.
