Job Description

About Hynds

Hynds is a proudly family-owned New Zealand business and the country's leading supplier of water and environmental infrastructure solutions across the civil and rural sectors. Our reputation is built on genuine customer service and a culture guided by three simple values: People Matter, We Do What's Right, and We Look After Each Other.

For more than 50 years, we've helped build and maintain the essential water and wastewater infrastructure that keeps New Zealand communities thriving. We believe diverse teams make better decisions and stronger businesses, and we're committed to creating an inclusive workplace where everyone feels valued, supported, and empowered to succeed.

About the Role

We're looking for an Account Manager to join our Northern team and help drive growth across the region. In this key sales role, you'll develop and strengthen customer relationships, identify new business opportunities, and maximise revenue through a strategic, customer-focused approach.

Whether you're an experienced Account Manager or currently building relationships within the construction, manufacturing, civil, infrastructure, or related sectors, this is an opportunity to grow your career with a trusted New Zealand market leader.

What You'll Be Doing

• Growing sales and identifying new business opportunities across the region.
• Building strong customer relationships and providing trusted advice.
• Managing a healthy sales pipeline and maintaining CRM records.
• Developing and executing territory plans to achieve sales targets.
• Keeping up to date with market trends, project activity, and competitor movements.
• Collaborating with internal teams to deliver exceptional customer outcomes.
• Expanding your product and industry knowledge.

What You'll Bring

• Proven success in sales, account management, or business development.
• Strong relationship-building and communication skills.
• A proactive, customer-focused approach with a drive to achieve results.
• The ability to identify opportunities and turn them into long-term customer partnerships.
• Experience in building, construction, manufacturing, civil, infrastructure, or a related industry is advantageous but not essential.

Don't have experience in water infrastructure? That's okay. If you bring strong commercial acumen, a proven ability to build customer relationships, and a willingness to learn, we'll provide the training and support to help you succeed.

What's in it for You?

• Company vehicle for business and personal use.
• Health insurance (subject to eligibility).
• Employee Assistance Programme (EAP).
• Access to employee discounts through our partner network.
• Ongoing training, development, and career progression opportunities.
• The opportunity to join a market-leading, family-owned New Zealand business that genuinely values its people.

Before You Join Us

The successful candidate will be required to undergo a pre-employment medical, drug and alcohol screening, and criminal history check. You must also be legally entitled to work in New Zealand.
