Account Manager – Earthmoving & Construction Machinery Industry
If you already speak machinery, this is the move that lifts you a level.
Our client has operated in Australia for more than 90 years. National reach, a well-backed brand, and a name built on getting the technical side right. The machine control part of the business is growing rapid and they need someone in Victoria to run with it.
Machine control is the technology fitted to excavators, dozers and graders that shows the operator exactly where the blade or bucket is, down to the millimetre. It's changing the way earthworks get delivered, and the contractors picking it up early are the ones winning more work. Your job is being in front of those contractors.
What you'll be doing
Running your own Victorian territory across civil and construction
Getting in with earthmoving contractors, civil builders and plant managers, then keeping those relationships strong
Running site demos in front of the people who'll actually operate the gear
Prospecting your own leads and driving them from first call to signed deal
Working with the internal technical team so the setup matches the job
Showing up at industry events and trade shows and staying visible in the market
This is a proper field role. Expect most weeks in the car and on sites. The office is there when it helps, not because someone wants you sitting in it.
What we're looking for




You don't need to have sold machine control specifically. What matters is that you've been around construction machinery enough to understand the world and the customers. Backgrounds we're open to include:
Earthmoving or heavy equipment sales, hire or dealership reps
Plant and equipment BDMs
Parts or service specialists who know the machines inside out and want to step into sales
Surveyors keen to get off the tools and put that knowledge to work commercially
Anyone selling technology or attachments into civil and construction
Any exposure to machine control brands of the likes of Trimble, Leica, Topcon or similar is highly desirable, though not essential.
Experience aside, we want someone who earns trust quickly, sells on performance rather than price, and runs their own week without constant follow up. You'll need a driver's licence and you'll need to be comfortable travelling around Victoria.
What's in it for you
$80,000 to $90,000 base plus super and a fully maintained company vehicle
$30,000 to $40,000 guaranteed commission from day one paid monthly, so you're not starting from scratch
Uncapped after that, no ceiling
Laptop, phone and all the gear you need
Real autonomy, no clock watching, this is your territory to grow
An established business with strong backing and room to move up
