National BDM NZ | Aesthetic Medical Devices | Capital Equipment
You'll build this market, not inherit it. For proven BDMs who thrive on autonomy, create momentum and are driven to achieve more.
Build the New Zealand market
Our client, a global medical aesthetic device technology company is moving to a direct operating model in New Zealand and is looking for an experienced Business Development Manager to lead its commercial growth.
This is a greenfield opportunity - there's no pipeline waiting and the first twelve months are about creating one. You'll be responsible for establishing the market, creating new business opportunities and growing a limited existing customer base across a portfolio of premium medical and aesthetics technology.
With individual equipment investments typically ranging from NZ$130K–$250K, this role calls for a commercially driven salesperson who knows how to create momentum and convert complex, high-value opportunities.
The Opportunity
You'll be responsible for:
Generating pipeline through proactive new business development
Identifying, targeting and converting high-value opportunities
Developing existing customer relationships and expanding the installed base
Mapping prospects, competitors and opportunities across New Zealand
Running demonstrations, workshops, seminars and industry events
Managing sales activity, forecasting and territory performance with discipline
Travelling regularly throughout New Zealand to develop customers and industry networks
You'll operate with significant independence, backed by an established Australian team across clinical training, technical support, marketing, finance and operations.
What We're Looking For
You'll ideally bring 3-5 years' experience selling high-value capital equipment or complex high-value solutions, with individual deal values in the tens to hundreds of thousands.
Relevant backgrounds could include capital equipment, medical devices, office automation, imaging, dental, industrial technology, agricultural equipment, IT infrastructure or comparable B2B sales environments.
Your track record should demonstrate:
Consistent achievement or overachievement against sales targets
Personally generated new business
Strong high-value or complex sales results
Experience growing a territory, market, customer base or product category
Success winning business in competitive markets
The ability to operate independently and remain accountable for performance
Be prepared to talk to the numbers behind your success - targets, results, deal values and what you personally contributed.
How You Operate
Trust and accountability are essential. You'll set your own priorities, understand the activity required to deliver your numbers and adapt quickly when something isn't working.
You'll have real support behind you - clinical, technical, marketing and operational - but you'll be the only salesperson in the New Zealand market. Your business plan is yours to build, agreed with the Managing Director in Australia, and then yours to deliver. There's no pipeline waiting for you.
If you're at your best when the pipeline is handed to you, this won't be the right fit.
Previous medical aesthetics experience isn't essential. Comprehensive product, clinical and technical training will be provided.
What's On Offer
NZ$220K–$240K OTE, including base salary, KiwiSaver, car allowance and commission
Uncapped commission with significant earning potential
The opportunity to shape the growth of a national market
Premium, high-value medical technology
The backing of an established international organisation
