State Manager South Australia

Take ownership of South Australian sales with an established Australian business. This role offers an experienced sales leader, or a territory manager ready to step up, the opportunity to lead a small team and build lasting customer relationships.

Cornerstone Consulting Group is recruiting on behalf of Mullins Wheels, an Australian-owned wheel and automotive products business operating since 1905. Based in Salisbury, the SA team serves customers across wheel, agricultural, industrial and trailer parts markets.

The role

Reporting to the National Sales & Operations Manager, you will lead two internal sales staff and one field sales representative. You will be responsible for SA sales performance and branch profitability, with the distribution centre managed separately.

Customer relationships are central to the role. You will spend time with major accounts and prospects, support the sales team and develop growth opportunities, particularly in agricultural and industrial products.

We are looking for someone who is still happy to be on the ground with customers, as well as lead an experienced and well-settled team.

Your responsibilities

- Build relationships with key customers, dealers and distributors, including agricultural businesses and trailer manufacturers.

- Win new business and develop sales plans that deliver profitable growth.

- Coach an experienced sales team and help the field representative make the most of the territory.

- Manage budgets, pricing, margins and controllable expenses, with oversight of customer accounts.





- Track sales performance and market activity, and work with internal teams to deliver reliable customer service.

About you

- You have a track record in field sales, territory management or business-to-business account management. You know how to earn customer trust, identify opportunities and turn a sales plan into results.

- You may already lead a small team, or be ready for your first formal management role. We are interested in your ability to guide people, follow through on commitments and make sound commercial decisions.

- Wholesale experience is highly relevant. A background in wheels, tyres, agricultural equipment, industrial products or trailer parts would be useful, but experience in the wheel and tyre industry is not essential. Strong candidates from other business-to-business sales sectors are encouraged to apply.

- You will also bring clear communication, good organisation, confidence with sales reporting and Microsoft Office, and the ability to travel to customers across South Australia and the Northern Territory from time to time.

What is on offer

- A competitive base salary, depending on skills and experience.

- A company vehicle and quarterly bonuses.

- Responsibility for state sales, supported by an experienced team and national management.

- The prospect to develop key accounts and build sales in agricultural and industrial markets.
