The Client
Our client is a well-established, privately owned business with a strong presence in the bathroom and plumbing product space.

• Coordinating promotional activity and ensuring display compliance
• Building strong, lasting relationships with merchant and trade partners
• Tracking territory performance and reporting on market trends and competitor activity
• Covering all key QLD regions with travel to WA as required.

• Most Important Thing: Experience selling to a distribution channel (i.e., plumbing merchants, hardware stores, independents).
• Demonstrated experience in a field-based account management or BDM role
• A background in plumbing, bathroom, or hardware products is highly regarded
