Sales Manager

About the role

🚀 Sales Manager: New Business | Sydney (On-site) | $250K OTE | Build & Scale a High-Velocity Sales Engine

We’re partnering with a fast-growing payments / POS business to hire a Sales Manager: New Business, a role for someone who doesn’t just manage teams, but builds high-performing sales machines.

The business is scaling post-acquisition and investing heavily in its next growth phase: rebuilding its GTM model and creating real leadership depth. This is your chance to step into a role where you own a revenue engine and materially improve it.

⚡ Why This Role

Most sales manager roles are about maintaining what already exists. This one isn’t.

You get:
* A live, high-volume engine (400-500 deals per month)
* The mandate to optimise, fix, and scale performance
* Direct visibility into revenue impact
* A business that’s growing, evolving, and backing sales leadership

If you’ve ever wanted to prove you can run a sales floor properly, this is the opportunity for you.

💼 What You’ll Actually Be Doing

You’ll run your own pod (BDRs + closers) and be measured on results.

* Coach reps live: on the floor, in real time
* Run daily cadence (standups, pipeline, deal reviews)
* Build a system that scales, not just quick fixes

✅ Must Have

* 3-5+ years leading high-velocity / SMB sales teams
* Experience managing BDR/SDRs + closers (hunters)
* Proven ability to drive performance, not just report on it
* Strong hands-on coaching capability
* Track record improving conversion, pipeline, and revenue outcomes
* Comfortable operating in fast-paced, ambiguous environments

➕ Nice to Have

* Background in payments, POS, fintech, telco, or SaaS SMB
* Experience in high-volume, short sales cycle environments
* Exposure to BDR + AE pod structures
* Experience in scaling or post-acquisition businesses
* Strong commercial acumen

🎯 Why High Performers Apply

* You own a core revenue function, not just manage it
* You can see your impact immediately in the numbers
* You’re stepping into real opportunity, not a finished system
* Clear path to senior leadership as the business scales

Bottom Line

This is for a builder-operator who wants to prove they can run and scale a high-performance sales engine.

If you thrive in:
* pace
* pressure
* fixing what’s broken
* and winning while doing it

You’ll do very well here.
