Full time

Territory Manager position based in Sunraysia, Vic. 

Territory Manager - Sunraysia

Based in the greater Mildura area.

Servicing the Sunraysia region from Swan Hill to Lake Cullulleraine.

Reporting to the managing director.

The primary focus of this territory manager role is to generate new business, leveraging referrals and identifying growth opportunities across the region.

The second objective is to provide agronomic support and training to existing clients. Some of this will be face-to-face with the orchard/irrigation manager at their site, and some will be by phone or Zoom meeting. 

You must be passionate about wanting to help the client succeed in achieving better outcomes. The agronomic decisions are based on the data collected by the sensors in the client's operation, not on gut feeling. Phytech will provide the necessary training to read the data. 

You must be able to demonstrate an ability to learn new concepts, as well as analytical and problem-solving skills, delivered in a professional manner. The company will provide you with the necessary training and support so you can learn how the Phytech solution works.

You must be willing and able to work outside in an orchard environment from time to time. There is no heavy lifting, but you will be exposed to a wide range of physical movements (bending, kneeling, reaching, etc.).

Work autonomously from home or the Mildura office without direct supervision.

Regular daily travel throughout the Sunraysia region that may require an occasional night away from home. You must maintain a valid Australian driver's license.

An understanding of horticultural irrigation operation, maintenance, or design is a prerequisite.

Experience working with, or for, horticultural organizations will be highly regarded.

Experience in sales or consultancy to the agricultural sector will be highly regarded to demonstrate interpersonal skills.

A base salary and commission structure commensurate with experience, plus a company vehicle, phone, computer, and superannuation, are on offer. 

You must have the legal right to live and work in Australia to be considered for the role.

Phytech has grown to become the largest IoT Agtech service provider in Australia. The Phytech service centers around a range of proprietary plant and environmental sensors, along with cloud-based algorithms, that enable growers to view the real-time irrigation needs of their crops. Data is collected and analyzed automatically, then displayed to the grower using a simple smartphone and web interface. This leads to improved water use efficiency, optimized yields, and higher-quality produce. Phytech has also expanded into the irrigation automation sector, providing growers with the ability to remotely program their irrigation system. The business model is “as-a-service” for both hardware and software, whereby the client pays a seasonal subscription fee rather than purchasing the specialized hardware and software themselves. Target irrigated crops include almonds, citrus, avocados, stone fruit, & grapes.

There is opportunity for career progression for the right candidate as this business continues to grow. If you are highly motivated, analytical, a good communicator, and have horticultural experience and can be trusted to work autonomously, then we would like to hear from you.  with any questions regarding this position, but only applications lodged through the Seek site will be considered.

NOTE: Never make payment to any employer, person, company, contractor or agency to get hired for a Job.
