Business Development Executive (Retail Field Sales)
Make your mark with some of Australia's biggest retail customers.
At Asahi Beverages, our brands are part of everyday moments across Australia. From Great Northern and Carlton Dry to Pepsi Max, Schweppes and Cool Ridge, we're looking for a commercially minded Business Development Executive to help grow our market-leading portfolio across a designated retail territory.
Your territory will cover Townsville and surrounding regions, with fortnightly overnight travel to Airlie Beach. Given the geographic spread of the territory, you'll spend a significant amount of time on the road connecting with customers and driving commercial outcomes across the region.
This is more than merchandising shelves. You'll own your territory like it's your own business, partnering with customers to drive distribution, sales growth, promotional execution and category success.
Your Impact
As the face of Asahi within your territory, you'll build trusted relationships with customers while delivering commercial outcomes that make a real difference.
You'll:
- Own a portfolio of grocery and liquor customers across your territory
- Drive distribution, availability and visibility of our market-leading brands
- Identify commercial opportunities to increase sales and profitability
- Execute promotional plans, pricing initiatives and compliance standards
- Build long-term relationships with store managers and key decision-makers
- Analyse sales data and store performance to identify growth opportunities
- Deliver exceptional in-store execution across the Asahi portfolio
- Work collaboratively with internal stakeholders to bring the One Asahi strategy to life
About You
You'll be someone who enjoys being out on the road, building relationships and achieving results. You're commercially curious, self-motivated and thrive in a fast-paced environment where no two days are the same.
We're open to a range of backgrounds. You may already be working in FMCG sales, or you could be looking to take the next step from retail, hospitality or another customer-focused environment.
We're looking for someone with:
- Strong relationship-building and influencing skills
- A customer-first mindset and a passion for delivering results
- The ability to work independently and manage your time effectively
- Commercial curiosity and an eagerness to learn
- Strong planning, organisation and problem-solving skills
- Experience in FMCG, retail, hospitality, QSR or a customer-facing leadership role will be highly regarded
- A current unrestricted Australian driver's licence
Experience working with customers such as Coles, Woolworths, BWS & Liquorland will be advantageous, however we would also love to hear from candidates with retail leadership, supermarket, liquor, hospitality or fast-food management experience who are looking to build a career in sales.
