Are you a relationship-driven sales professional with existing contacts across Australia's Mandarin-speaking building and development community? Do you thrive on opening new markets, building trust within tight-knit business networks, and influencing specification decisions on premium projects?

This is your opportunity to represent a respected Australian manufacturer in a newly created, national role — with the autonomy to build and own a market segment the business has not yet been able to access at scale.

The Company

Our client is a highly respected Australian manufacturer with a long-standing reputation for quality, craftsmanship, and design integrity across the architecture, design, and construction sectors.

For decades, they have partnered closely with architects, designers, builders, developers, and distributors to deliver premium brick and surface solutions across residential, commercial, education, hospitality, and large-scale architectural projects throughout Australia.

Renowned for their design-led approach, exceptional service, and premium product offering, they have built a strong reputation within the architectural community as a trusted specification partner.

As the business continues to invest in strategic growth, they are seeking a commercially minded and relationship-focused Business Development Manager to help drive market presence and specification activity — including growing demand from Mandarin-speaking clients and stakeholders.

The Role

As National Business Development Manager, you'll be responsible for opening and developing a new segment of the Australian market — Mandarin-speaking builders, developers, and private clients — with a primary focus on this community, and secondary engagement with architects and designers where your own relationships add genuine value.

This is a highly autonomous, relationship-driven role where success comes from strategic engagement, consultative selling, and your existing standing within Australia's Mandarin-speaking business community. Your language skills and network will be central to building rapport, trust, and deeper engagement within this growing and largely untapped segment of the market.

You'll work primarily with builders and developers, alongside high-net-worth private clients and end-users, while also engaging architects, designers and distributors where relevant — guiding projects from concept through to construction while collaborating internally with operations, logistics, production, and support teams to ensure a seamless client experience.

This is a genuinely national, remote-based role. You can be based in Greater Sydney, Greater Melbourne, or Greater Brisbane/Gold Coast, and will travel nationally — including interstate by air — to visit clients, projects and developments outside your home city.

You'll be supported by an experienced leadership team while being trusted to take full ownership of building this new national territory from the ground up.

Key Responsibilities

• Identify, qualify, and develop new business opportunities with builders and developers within Australia's Mandarin-speaking community, as the primary focus of the role
• Build on and leverage your own existing network of Mandarin-speaking contacts across the building, development and property sectors
• Develop relationships with high-net-worth private clients and end-users who often drive specification directly
• Engage architects and designers where your own relationships add genuine value, working alongside existing specification teams
• Drive specification activity and increase brand presence across residential, multi-residential and commercial projects
• Manage projects from early design stages through to delivery and completion
• Conduct design-led presentations and product discussions with key stakeholders, including Mandarin-speaking clients and partners
• Collaborate closely with internal teams including operations, logistics, production, and customer support
• Manage pipeline activity, forecasting, and project tracking through CRM and ERP systems
• Travel nationally, including interstate by air, to visit clients and projects outside your home city

About You

You're a commercially minded and proactive sales professional with genuine standing and existing relationships within Australia's Mandarin-speaking building and development community.

You understand premium positioning, solution-based selling, and the importance of delivering exceptional service and follow-through in a relationship-driven industry.

You're confident engaging across all levels of the project chain — from builders and developers through to architects, design teams and delivery partners — and enjoy building credibility through consistency, professionalism, and market knowledge. You're also comfortable operating autonomously in a national, remote-based role.

• Experience within bricks, surfaces, façades, stone, interiors, or other design-led construction products highly regarded
• Strong relationship-building and communication skills
• Ability to manage projects from concept through to completion
• Commercial acumen with the ability to balance design, delivery, and commercial outcomes
• Experience using CRM and ERP systems to manage pipeline and forecasting activity
• Self-motivated, organised, and comfortable managing a national territory autonomously and remotely
• Willingness to travel nationally, including by air, as required

What's In It For You?

• Competitive base salary + superannuation + fully maintained vehicle
• Commission structure offering genuine upside
• A genuinely national, remote-based role — based in Greater Sydney, Greater Melbourne, or Greater Brisbane/Gold Coast
• Performance incentive structure aligned to achievable targets and outcomes
• Represent a premium Australian manufacturer with a strong industry reputation
• The opportunity to open and shape an entirely new market segment, with real autonomy over how you build it
• Long-term career growth opportunities within an expanding national business
• Supportive, agile, and collaborative leadership team
• Join a business that values initiative, accountability, and relationship-driven success
• Opportunity to make a visible impact opening a largely untapped Mandarin-speaking market segment nationally
