Bring your proven B2B sales experience to this account management and business development role with Milsons. You’ll win new business and grow existing accounts across construction, manufacturing, civil and reseller markets in the Wellington region.

This role combines the drive to open doors with the ability to build lasting customer relationships. We’re looking for someone who understands what customers need, creates genuine value and turns opportunities into results.

You’ll join a well-established, successful team and have the support to develop your market within a New Zealand-owned business with ambitious growth plans.

- You make a strong first impression, communicate confidently at all levels and know how to build relationships that last.

- Formal sales training or a demonstrated, structured sales methodology will be highly regarded.

- Industry experience is useful, but not essential. Proven sales capability, character and the right mindset matter most.

- Above all, your word means something. If you say you’ll do something, you do it.
