About the Role

Step into a pivotal leadership role with a global leader in material handling and take ownership of driving growth in a changing market. Crown Equipment is seeking a driven and hands-on Sales Manager to lead our Newcastle and Canberra based teams and expand our customer base beyond an established but evolving market.

This is not a “steady state” leadership role, it’s an opportunity for a commercially minded leader who thrives on winning new business, developing people, and creating momentum in competitive environments.

You’ll lead a team of five Account Managers with varying levels of experience, helping them lift capability, increase activity, and capture new opportunities across equipment sales, leasing, and rentals.

What you’ll do

• Lead, coach and develop a team of Account Managers to increase capability and performance
• Drive new business growth by expanding beyond existing accounts into untapped markets
• Partner with your team in the field, supporting key customer opportunities and major deals
• Build strong customer relationships while positioning Crown as a premium solution in a competitive landscape
• Implement practical sales strategies to increase pipeline, conversion and market share
• Monitor performance, manage forecasts and deliver on sales and profitability targets
• Contribute to the broader NSW & ACT leadership team and strategic direction

What we’re looking for

• A hands-on sales leader or senior B2B salesperson ready to step into leadership
• Proven ability to win new business (hunter mindset) in competitive or price-sensitive markets
• Experience in capital equipment, industrial, construction, transport, or similar sectors (preferred)
• Strong coaching ability — able to lift performance across a mixed-experience team
• Resilient, commercially sharp, and motivated by achieving and exceeding targets
• Comfortable with a performance-based reward structure tied to results

Why This Role?

• Opportunity to step up into leadership or take ownership of a team ready for growth
• High level of autonomy to shape strategy and influence results
• Join a well-established brand with strong market reputation and support
• Be part of a business where performance is recognised and rewarded

Additional Benefits

• Access to discounts and cashback across 400+ retailers
• Health and wellbeing support platform
• Corporate private health rates
• Employee Assistance Program
• Inclusive and supportive working environment
