Account Development Manager - Pro AV & Entertainment

Melbourne, Victoria | Leading Global AV Brands | Uncapped Commission

Inspired Search is proud to partner with Jands in their search for an experienced Account Development Manager to join their Production & Entertainment division in Victoria.

About Jands

With more than 50 years of experience, Jands is one of Australia's leading independent distributors of qualified audio, lighting, staging and entertainment technology.

Representing some of the industry's most respected global brands, including Shure, Meyer Sound, Pioneer and ETC, Jands has built an outstanding reputation for technical expertise, innovative solutions and long-standing partnerships across the professional AV, production, entertainment and venues sectors.

Having achieved approximately 40% growth over the past three years, Jands continues to invest in its people, product portfolio and technical capabilities to support its expanding customer base.

Proudly Australian-owned and recognised as a Great Place to Work, Jands offers a collaborative, supportive environment where employees are encouraged to develop their expertise, contribute ideas and build rewarding careers.

The Opportunity

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Account Manager with a background in professional AV, production or entertainment technology to take ownership of an established portfolio of channel partners and customers across Victoria.

Reporting to the Production & Entertainment Team Leader, you will play a key role in strengthening existing partnerships, identifying new commercial opportunities and driving revenue growth across Jands' extensive product portfolio.

This is a relationship-led, consultative sales position rather than a traditional cold-calling business development role.

Working closely with production companies, AV integrators, consultants and other industry partners, you will become their trusted point of contact, helping them identify and specify the right technology solutions for live entertainment, venues and production projects.

You will have the autonomy to manage your territory,



develop meaningful customer relationships and contribute directly to the continued growth of an established and highly regarded business.

Key Responsibilities

- Manage and grow an established portfolio of customer and channel partner accounts across Victoria.
- Build solid, long-term relationships with production companies, AV integrators, consultants and entertainment industry stakeholders.
- Identify opportunities to increase revenue, expand product adoption and maximise account potential.
- Work collaboratively with partners to understand upcoming projects, recommend appropriate AV solutions and support product specification.
- Lead commercial discussions, prepare pricing proposals and negotiate opportunities within agreed parameters.
- Develop and execute strategic account plans to achieve revenue, profitability and growth objectives.
- Maintain an accurate sales pipeline, forecasting and customer activity through CRM systems.
- Collaborate with Jands' technical, marketing and product specialists to deliver outstanding customer outcomes.
- Keep abreast of industry developments, emerging technologies and opportunities within the production and entertainment market.

About You

We are seeking a commercially driven, relationship-focused sales professional who understands the professional AV market and enjoys working closely with customers to deliver technical solutions.

Ideally, you will bring:

- A strong background in B2B account management, technical sales or channel partner management.
- Experience within professional AV, live production, entertainment technology or a closely related sector.
- Established knowledge of the production and entertainment market, including working with production companies, AV integrators or consultants.
- A proven ability to develop existing accounts, strengthen customer relationships and achieve revenue growth.
- The commercial confidence to manage pricing discussions, identify opportunities and negotiate effectively.




- An understanding of professional audio, lighting, staging or related AV technologies.
- Experience using CRM or ERP systems, ideally Microsoft Dynamics or similar.
- Strong communication, presentation and relationship management skills.
- A proactive, self-motivated approach and willingness to regularly engage with customers face-to-face.

While previous experience within professional AV distribution would be advantageous, we are equally interested in speaking with candidates from production companies, AV integration businesses and other technical sales environments who understand the entertainment and production sector.
