Reporting to the Sales Manager, you will manage and develop relationships with an existing portfolio of pet and aquarium retailers while actively identifying opportunities to increase their spend with Premier Pet.

You will be someone who:

Experience
Previous experience in telesales, inside sales, account management, or B2B sales will be highly regarded.
Experience in the pet, aquarium, retail, wholesale or distribution industries would be an advantage.
However, we are equally interested in candidates who can demonstrate a strong sales record, excellent telephone skills, and the right attitude.
What Will Make You Successful?
We are looking for someone who wants to sell.
This is not a passive account-management role where you simply wait for customers to place orders.
We want someone who will look at their customer portfolio and ask:
“Who can I call today, what can I sell them, and how can I grow this account?”
The successful candidate will have the energy, confidence, resilience, and commercial drive to consistently pursue opportunities and deliver results.
If you are motivated by sales, enjoy building customer relationships and take pride in hitting — and exceeding — targets, we want to hear from you.

- Build relationships with customers across the Australian pet and aquarium industry
