We're hiring — Business Development Manager | Hospitality Tech | New Zealand

Christchurch (adaptable) · NZD $85-95k base + commission · Full time

One of our clients is a a fast-growing hospitality technology company, and is expanding across New Zealand, and we are running the search for their next business developer. I'm after someone who knows hospitality from the inside.

This is a sales role, but not a numbers-only one. It's for someone who's lived the rhythm of service, the busy kitchen, the Friday-night bar, and the realities of the daily trade, and can use that credibility to open doors and win new venues.
Here's what you'd be doing:
Building and owning your own sales pipeline — finding leads, chasing them, closing them
Bringing current venues onto a leading POS platform and its integrated tools (reservations, QR ordering, inventory,



rostering and more)
Managing a portfolio of existing clients and growing those relationships
Getting out on the road across NZ — Queenstown, Auckland and beyond

Who I'm looking for:
A few years in sales or BD, ideally building pipeline from scratch
Real hospitality experience — you get how venues actually run
The confidence to sit across from owners and earn their trust
Self-motivated, independent, and driven by results
NZ work rights and a current driver's licence

Christchurch is ideal, but I'm flexible for the right person if you're happy to travel.

If this sounds like you, or someone you rate, I'd love to hear from you
