Itch Recruitment
Perth
Represent one of WA's most recognised business brands and build relationships with the people shaping the state's economy.
I am Andrew, from Itch, and I am working with one of WA's most respected business media brands to find an experienced commercial relationship builder.
Someone who wants more interesting conversations, stronger client relationships, and a closer connection to the WA business community than their current role gives them.
This could suit someone from account management, B2B sales, media, subscriptions, corporate partnerships, sponsorship, professional services, recruitment, customer success, finance, property, events or membership based organisations.
The common thread is not your industry. It is your ability to build trust, read people, manage commercial conversations and grow relationships that last.
About the business
This business has enjoyed more than eight years of strong growth and is now one of the best known business brands in Western Australia. It is genuinely hard to find a WA business leader who does not know it.
The commercial team works with a senior, influential client base across the WA business community, including plenty of conversations that end up in boardrooms on St Georges Terrace. Pay is fair to market, but people join and stay because of the culture: high performing, supportive, ambitious and genuinely team oriented. Around 20 per cent of the team has been there more than ten years.
The opportunity The commercial team is expanding, with room to contribute across corporate account management, subscription relationship management, client partnerships,
business development, commercial product advisory and senior client engagement. For the right person, this is a chance to step into a role where the client base is genuinely interesting: business owners, executives, professional advisers, corporate leaders and decision makers across WA.
What you will be doing
- Managing and growing relationships with corporate clients and senior contacts
- Understanding client objectives and connecting them with the right products
- Building account plans and identifying genuine commercial opportunities
- Developing long-term relationships built on trust, relevance and follow-through
- Working closely with internal teams to actually deliver for clients
- Keeping a disciplined pipeline and communicating clearly along the way
- Representing the brand professionally across the WA business community
This is a commercial role, but it is not a hard sell environment. The best people here are commercially sharp, well prepared, curious and relationship led, not transactional. You may be a strong fit if you
- Have experience in B2B sales, account management or client relationships
- Are comfortable speaking with senior stakeholders and decision makers
- Enjoy learning about different businesses and industries
- Can balance commercial outcomes with long-term trust
- Are organised, self-managed and consistent under pressure
- Have strong written and verbal communication skills
- Want to keep growing, not just repeat what you have already done
You do not need a media or publishing background. In fact, this may suit you best if you built strong commercial instincts somewhere else entirely and now want to apply them to a more engaging WA business environment.
On offer
- $85,000 - $100,000 + super plus incentives that grow as your book does
- A brand that already has credibility the moment you mention it
- A senior, engaged and influential client base
- A business with a genuine growth story behind it
- A high performing but supportive team, not a shark tank
- Long-term relationships to build, not one-off transactions to chase
- Real scope to shape your own role as the business keeps expanding
**Perth CBD. Full-time, permanent. Only applicants with full Australian working rights living in Perth will be considered**

Apply with your CV and short answers to these three questions:
1. Tell us about a client relationship you are proud of building.
2. What kind of commercial conversations bring out your best work?
3. Why does working with WA's business leaders interest you?
I am looking for people who are ambitious without ego, commercially sharp without being transactional, and serious about the long game. Hit apply and I will be in touch for a confidential chat.
