Working together with a strong team of customer service, professional development, marketing, and business support, you will be required to ensure our customers continue to receive the best solutions and support.

This full-time role is in field based, (not office based), requiring the BDR to be well organised in territory planning and implementation. Daily activities include travel within the territory, face-to-face meetings, virtual meetings, and education sessions (including via phone, digital). Travel across Queensland and interstate is required, along with occasional extended hours and weekend events, such as trade shows.
