- Maintain accurate records of prospecting activity, customer interactions, sales opportunities and pipeline progress using CRM systems
- Regularly report on sales performance, forecasts, new-business activity and market insights to senior management
- Attend industry events and networking functions to generate leads and strengthen Howmet’s market position

What We’re Looking For

- A proven sales hunter with a demonstrated record of winning new customers and generating revenue growth

- Confidence in prospecting, cold calling and approaching potential customers
- Experience developing current territories or market segments and consistently achieving sales targets

- Demonstrated ability to identify customer needs and apply a solutions‑based selling approach
- Strong negotiation, objection‑handling and closing skills
- A self‑motivated, resilient and results‑focused approach
- Strong organisational and time‑management skills, with the ability to manage multiple opportunities and accounts simultaneously
- Valid driver’s licence and willingness to travel throughout VIC, TAS and SA as required
