Key responsibilities include:

• Own and deliver a new business revenue target, with full accountability for your pipeline from first contact through to filled shifts
• Proactively identify, pursue and win new clients across warehousing and logistics, civil construction and infrastructure, manufacturing, mining and renewables
• Conduct regular client and prospect site visits across the east coast, completing customer site safety assessments and identifying workforce demand early — project ramp-ups, shutdowns, seasonal peaks and unplanned labour gaps
• Track major project announcements, tenders and construction pipelines across the east coast to position Haynes ahead of competitors
• Convert briefs quickly through seamless handover to our recruitment team, leveraging Haynes' 48-hour response commitment as a genuine competitive edge
• Grow share of wallet within won accounts and turn satisfied clients into referrals across their project and supplier networks
• Represent Haynes at industry events and networking functions across the territory

• Strong market knowledge across the eastern seaboard, and a genuine drive to help local businesses succeed
• High level of customer service — we pride ourselves on doing what we say we will do!
• Excellent communication, negotiation and relationship-building skills

• A genuine pathway into sales leadership as our east coast portfolio grows
• Industry-leading software systems
• A supportive operational and management team
• The autonomy to manage your own portfolio of clients and region
