Business Development Manager – Tyres | VIC & SA
Victoria Based | SA & VIC Territory | Wholesale Tyre Sales
ROH Wheels / Predator Tyres is seeking an experienced tyre industry Business Development Manager to drive the next stage of growth for Predator Tyres across Victoria and South Australia.
This is a senior, commercially focused business development role with significant autonomy and a strong focus on building long-term wholesale relationships, opening new accounts and increasing sales through existing customers.
Based remotely in Victoria, you will take ownership of the SA and VIC territory, with a particular focus on accelerating our growth within the Victorian market while continuing to develop our established South Australian customer base.
We’re looking for someone who already understands the tyre trade, has strong industry relationships and can turn those relationships into sustainable, recurring wholesale business.
About the Role
Reporting directly to the General Manager, you will be responsible for developing wholesale Predator Tyres sales throughout Victoria and South Australia.
Victoria represents a significant growth opportunity for Predator Tyres and will be the primary base and development focus of the role. You will also maintain a strong presence in South Australia, with travel to Adelaide and regional SA generally anticipated on a monthly basis.
Your primary focus will be the wholesale 4x4 and off-road tyre market, with Predator’s range of LT tyres sold through independent tyre retailers, tyre groups, 4x4 specialists, fitment centres and other trade customers.
This is not a desk-based work-from-home sales position.
You will operate remotely for planning, administration and reporting, but the majority of your success will come from being in the market — visiting customers, developing new opportunities and building long-term commercial relationships.
Rather than focusing on individual retail transactions, the role is about creating repeat wholesale business, increasing account penetration and establishing Predator Tyres as a preferred supply partner.
You will be supported by ROH Wheels’ established national distribution network, internal sales team and dedicated in-house marketing resources.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Develop and execute a structured business development plan across Victoria and South Australia.
- Identify, prospect and onboard current wholesale tyre customers.
- Take a lead role in expanding Predator Tyres’ presence throughout the Victorian market.
- Manage and grow strategically important existing accounts across SA and VIC.
- Increase sales volume, product penetration and order frequency within existing customers.
- Build strong relationships with tyre retailers, dealer groups, 4x4 specialists, fitment centres and other trade customers.
- Conduct regular metropolitan and regional customer visits throughout Victoria.
- Undertake regular travel to South Australia, generally including monthly metropolitan and regional sales activity.
- Develop structured customer call cycles and regional sales runs.
- Identify opportunities for bulk, forward-order and direct-container supply programs where commercially appropriate.
- Negotiate pricing and commercial arrangements within agreed company guidelines.
- Identify complementary ROH Wheels opportunities where appropriate.
- Work closely with our marketing team to develop and execute regional promotions, dealer initiatives and customer campaigns.
- Maintain an active and accurate new-business pipeline and CRM.
- Provide regular sales forecasts, customer activity reporting and account development updates.
- Monitor competitor products, pricing, promotional activity and changes within the tyre market.
- Provide market intelligence and customer feedback to assist product, purchasing and inventory planning.
- Represent Predator Tyres and ROH Wheels at trade shows, customer events, field days and industry functions.
About You We are looking for an experienced salesperson who understands the tyre industry and can operate with a high degree of independence.
You’ll ideally bring
- Robust experience within the Australian tyre industry, preferably in wholesale, distribution or business development.
- An established network of relationships within the Victorian and/or South Australian tyre trade.
- A demonstrated ability to win new business and develop recurring wholesale sales.
- Robust commercial and account management capability.
- Confidence negotiating pricing, volume and commercial supply arrangements.
- Strong knowledge of the Australian 4x4, off-road and LT tyre market.
- The ability to develop and execute your own territory and account plans.
- Strong organisation, follow-up and pipeline management.
- The ability to operate autonomously while remaining accountable through structured reporting and CRM activity.
- A suitable home-based working environment for administration and planning.
- A current Australian driver’s licence.
- The willingness to undertake regular regional and interstate travel.
Existing relationships with independent tyre retailers, tyre groups, 4x4 specialists or other relevant trade customers would be highly regarded. Experience across wheels, tyres or the wider 4x4 and automotive aftermarket is also advantageous.
