Ready to build something from the ground up?

Local Insights is launching a brand-new telesales department, and we’re on the lookout for a proven sales professional who’s ready to roll up their sleeves, make an immediate impact, and lead from the front.

This isn’t just another sales role. It’s a career-defining opportunity to build and lead a new team in a fast-growing, Google-trusted digital marketing agency.

We’re not starting from scratch - we’re bringing a proven formula for success from our UK operations. Not only do we know this model works, but we also know exactly how to implement it. That takes much of the risk out of launching something brand new and gives us a head start on scaling quickly and effectively.

The Role

As Sales Manager, you’ll be the driving force behind our new outbound telesales channel. You’ll master the product, close deals, refine the process, and then build a high-performing team around you. This is a hands-on role where you’ll be selling initially - and leading strategically.

· Short Term Responsibilities:

· Generate new business via cold calling and outbound phone sales

· Master the Google Listing Optimiser and our proven sales methodology

· Hit agreed markers and sales targets

· Develop repeatable systems and processes for the department

· Mid-Term Objectives:

· Recruit, train, and lead a high-performing telesales team

· Set and track KPIs, motivate team members, and lead by example

· Refine and optimise call scripts and workflows

· Contribute to strategic direction and revenue growth

You’ll Need:

· Proven success in a telesales or outbound sales role

· Strong cold-calling skills and high closing ability

· Leadership experience — team-building or people management

· Entrepreneurial drive and a hands-on mentality

· Experience in digital marketing (bonus, not essential)

What's On Offer?

· $75k–$95k base salary + super

· Performance bonuses + realistic $120k+ OTE

· Long-term department profit share as the department scales

· Full product and sales training

· Career progression with a clear leadership track

· A vibrant team culture with regular socials and support from experienced leaders

· Please note: This role is Brisbane office-based (this role is office-based due to ongoing training and team collaboration)

This role is perfect for:

· A Senior Sales Exec or Team Leader who’s hit the ceiling in their current role

· A Sales Manager seeking a more entrepreneurial environment

· Someone hungry to make their mark and lead something from day one

We’re not looking for average. We’re looking for a rockstar.
