- Apply your product knowledge and industry understanding to deliver relevant, trusted animal health and production advice, supported by Zoetis technical experts.
- Grow key brands and develop new business in line with commercial plans, while maintaining and strengthening existing customer relationships.
- Plan and deliver producer-facing workshops, field days and other engagement that provides useful education and information to industry stakeholders.




- Travel regularly throughout Central Highlands and Central Western Queensland.

What you’ll bring

- A solid interest in beef cattle operations and a genuine passion for the northern beef industry.
- A real desire to help cattle producers improve productivity and profitability.
- Good animal health product knowledge and a strong understanding of the livestock industry; the ability to build technical knowledge with support from our technical team.
- A practical, producer-focused approach and confidence engaging on property and crush-side.
- Excellent relationship-building, communication and organisational skills, with a proactive and customer-focused mindset.
- Ideally, residence in Emerald or willingness to be based there.
- Experience in livestock, animal health, rural sales or account management is valued; relevant rural science, agribusiness or related qualifications are an advantage.

What you’ll get

- Above-industry salary, fully equipped company vehicle and an attractive bonus structure.
- Company technology, including laptop, iPad and iPhone, plus a work-from-home set-up.
- The opportunity to work for a Fortune 500 company and the world's largest animal health company.
- Collaborative colleagues and exposure to teams across livestock, veterinary, retail, marketing, diagnostics,



genetics and more.
- Business travel to conferences, industry events and trade shows, with opportunities for ongoing development and career progression.
