About Datamine
Datamine is a global leader in mining technology, supporting more than 5,000 customers across over 20 countries. We develop specialised software and services that help resource companies plan, manage and optimise every stage of the mining value chain. Our portfolio spans exploration, geological data management, GIS, laboratory information management, geological modelling, mine planning, production management, logistics and commodity trading. Together, these solutions support some of the world's leading mining companies, giving customers access to one of the broadest technology portfolios in the industry.
As our business continues to grow across the Asia-Pacific region, we're looking for someone who is excited by technology, enjoys working with customers, and wants to build a long-term career in enterprise software sales.
The Opportunity
This is an ideal opportunity for someone looking to take the next step in their commercial career. Unlike traditional business development roles, you won't spend your days cold calling or searching for prospects. Instead, you'll inherit a steady stream of inbound enquiries from customers already looking to engage with Datamine. From there, you'll own each opportunity from first conversation through to contract execution.
Working across our entire software portfolio, you'll learn how mining companies solve challenges throughout the mining value chain. You'll engage with customers to understand their objectives, identify the most appropriate solution, coordinate technical specialists where required, and guide opportunities to a successful commercial outcome.
No two conversations are the same. One day you might be discussing exploration workflows, the next laboratory systems, mine planning or production management. The variety makes this role both challenging and rewarding.
Most importantly, you'll be surrounded by experienced Account Managers, Technical Consultants and industry specialists who will help you develop your commercial, technical and industry knowledge. As your experience grows, so too will the complexity of the opportunities you manage and the responsibility you take on.
If you're naturally curious, enjoy building relationships and want to develop into enterprise technology sales, this role provides an exceptional platform for long-term growth opportunities.
What You'll Be Accountable For
Sales & Opportunity Management
- Manage inbound customer enquiries from first contact through to contract execution.
- Conduct discovery discussions to understand customer workflows, challenges and business objectives.
- Qualify opportunities and recommend appropriate solutions from across Datamine's software portfolio.
- Develop commercial proposals and software quotations.
- Identify opportunities to introduce additional solutions that create value for customers.
- Negotiate commercial terms within approved guidelines.
- Successfully close software sales and coordinate contract administration.
Customer Engagement
- Build trusted relationships with prospective and existing customers.
- Act as the primary commercial contact throughout the sales process.
- Deliver an exceptional customer experience through proactive communication and follow-up.
- Manage multiple opportunities while maintaining excellent service standards.
Collaboration
- Work closely with Technical Consultants to coordinate demonstrations, evaluations and implementation proposals.
- Ensure commercial and technical activities are aligned to deliver an outstanding customer experience.
- Attend customer meetings, conferences and industry events.
- Share customer feedback and market insights to support continual improvement.
Sales Operations
- Maintain accurate opportunity and customer records within Salesforce.
- Manage an active sales pipeline.
- Prepare proposals, quotations and supporting documentation.
- Maintain sales collateral and content within company systems.
Success in this role will be measured through customer engagement, chance conversion, pipeline quality and contribution to software revenue.
Who We're Looking For
We're looking for someone with the right attitude, curiosity and commercial potential. You don't need to know every aspect of mining software, we'll help you develop that knowledge. What matters most is that you enjoy working with customers, are eager to learn, and are motivated by helping organisations solve real business challenges.
You'll ideally bring
- Experience in a customer-facing, commercial or business support role.
- Strong communication and relationship-building skills.
- A naturally curious approach and a willingness to learn.
- Excellent organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities.
- Confidence engaging with a broad range of people.
- A proactive, positive and solutions-focused mindset.
- Experience using Salesforce or another CRM platform is advantageous.
Experience in mining, engineering, geology or enterprise software is beneficial but not essential.
Why Join Datamine?
This role is designed as a genuine career development opportunity. You'll gain exposure to one of the mining industry's broadest software portfolios, work alongside experienced technical and commercial professionals, and develop the skills needed to build a successful career in enterprise technology.
We offer
- A consistent pipeline of qualified inbound opportunities.
- Exposure to customers across the entire mining value chain.
