I’m excited to share a unique opportunity that rarely comes to market. For nearly 50 years, this Australian-owned business has been the backbone of major civil infrastructure projects, delivering world-class industrial pumps and fluid handling solutions that keep our cities, communities, and industries running. Their portfolio spans everything from stormwater and wastewater management to large-scale water transfer and treatment systems. Employees here enjoy a collaborative, supportive culture, ongoing technical and safety training, 24/7 engineering backup, and the chance to work with the most innovative products in the industry. Recent achievements include partnering with local councils on flood mitigation, delivering turnkey pump stations for remote communities, and earning ISO certifications for quality, safety, and environmental excellence.

Due to internal growth, they are now seeking a Project Sales Business Development Manager to join the team—reporting directly to the National Sales Manager. This is a strategic, outward-facing role for someone with big ambitions and a passion for shaping infrastructure. You’ll be out in the field, building relationships with key stakeholders and driving projects from concept to completion.

Your responsibilities will include:

Identifying and developing new business opportunities within the civil infrastructure sector

Managing and growing relationships with engineers, project managers, contractors, government departments, and local councils

Conducting site visits to assess project requirements and provide technical advice

Preparing and delivering technical presentations and proposals

Leading tender submissions and contract negotiations

Collaborating with internal engineering, service, and project teams to deliver tailored solutions

Monitoring market trends and competitor activity to inform strategy

Representing the business at industry events, trade shows, and networking functions

About You:
You’re a driven sales professional with a knack for building trust and credibility in technical environments. Your background could include selling mechanical solutions such as pumps, valves, water treatment systems, filtration, compressors, generators, flow meters, or other capital equipment into the civil, water, or infrastructure sectors. Maybe you started on the tools—plumbing, mechanical trades, or site-based roles—before moving into sales, or you’ve built your career selling to government, utilities, or major contractors.

You’ll stand out if you have:

Proven success in project-based or capital equipment sales

Experience working with civil contractors, water authorities, or local government

Strong technical aptitude and a consultative, solutions-focused approach

Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills

The ability to work autonomously and as part of a national team

A passion for seeing projects through from inception to delivery

Ambition to progress your career in a business that rewards initiative and results

If you’re ready to take the next step in your career and play a key role in Australia’s civil infrastructure future, I want to hear from you.
