Let us introduce ourselves

We are a software company that develops fleet and mobility technologies and operates across NZ and AU.  We are a company that is deeply committed to employee engagement and development and can offer numerous benefits over and above a base salary and commission. All staff are included in the company bonus scheme.

Most companies offer flexible working these days and we are no different, so you can mix it up to suit your lifestyle. We also have an active social club, offer a gym subsidy, eye exams, free parking and most importantly, an espresso machine that will give you quality coffee on tap.

Our culture is often described as being family oriented, supportive, outcome driven, flexible and humble.  Continuous learning and improvement are words you should expect to hear often in our company and a personal development plan is created and executed annually, with quarterly reviews to ensure your development stays front of mind. 

Smartrak is part of the Volaris Group that acquires and holds to strengthen and grow vertical market SaaS technology companies. You have the best of both worlds, a small, family feel business, backed by a global entity that brings with it a multitude of experience, networking, collaboration and growth opportunities.

The opportunity

This role reports directly to the VP, Fleet and Asset and is responsible for driving new business and growing current business against agreed targets.

You will lead a team of BDM’s and CSM’s, helping them to bring in new accounts and grow existing ones with strategic awareness and contemporary sales methodologies to engage companies looking for solutions to transportation, staff safety and asset management challenges.

The key accountabilities are around sales and business development, to build a strong pipeline and grow revenue through excellent customer relationships.  You will need to learn our product offerings, so being able to understand and articulate the value proposition of technology products is key.   

You will need to manage financial budgeting and accurately forecast sales revenue. Creating management reports that provide valuable insight into the effectiveness of sales, marketing and customer success business plans is also a key requirement of the role.  Couple this with the ability to take a strategic view to sales and be able to execute that strategy to drive the business forward, this is a pivotal and highly influential role with plenty of scope for growth.

Staff engagement and development are really important to us, as we strive to have everyone be the best they can be. So, we need you to be a motivating, supportive and empathetic leader for your team, with a commitment to continuous improvement and an interest in experimenting to find successful strategies for growth.

We need someone who can:

  • Bring us a solid and proven background in sales and experience in managing customer success
  • Sell both hardware and software solutions
  • Lead, develop and inspire a great team of BDM’s and CSM’s, some who are remote, across NZ and Australia
  • Understand sales strategy and be able to develop and execute on one
  • Understand contracts and basics of contract law
  • Take a disciplined approach to sales using proven methodologies and tools
  • Generate key data to enable informed decisions to be made

If you have a degree in a relevant field that would be a bonus, but not a deal breaker as we know that exceptional sales people come from all walks of life, your sales record and experience is what is most important to us.

What our staff have to say

  • I started working at Smartrak 5 years ago and from the start I knew that it was a supportive, hardworking, fun environment. Today, it remains just as positive, with the awesome group of passionate individuals that I am blessed to work with every day.

    After a couple of years (and some maternity leave in between) I’ve been given the opportunity to move into a leadership role for the Customer Service team.

    I continue to be encouraged to learn throughout my journey, a sentiment that is echoed throughout the organisation with ongoing training and personal development a cornerstone in all areas of the business.
    Sarah Masefield
  • I’ve been at Smartrak now for two years. I initially started as the Marketing Coordinator, but I’ve recently transitioned into a new role as a Marketing Strategist.

    It may sound terribly cliché, but Smartrak isn’t like other organisations. People truly do come first. I’m given the flexibility to schedule my work around my personal life. This has been especially important during COVID, when looking after a newborn.

     I’m amazed at the fact that they care so much about my professional development; not just where I am now, but what I want to achieve in the future. My manager and I are constantly trying to identify projects and opportunities that will develop the skills I’ll need to advance in my career. 

    Nick Allan
  • As a marketer, I’m particularly drawn to two attributes of the Smartrak approach.

    1. Solutions development goes beyond ‘product fit’ and looks to generate genuinely beneficial change.
    2. The company never rests in its drive to be a thought leader.

    Both of these ensure I work in an environment where resonant messaging and incisive thinking are valued.
    Andrew Hollis
  • Smartrak is a great place to work!

    My time at Smartrak started 9 years ago. Reflecting back on this time, what stands out to me is the care and respect we had for each other. To this day, that has not changed, although the size of the company has grown ten-fold. This core belief is the reason why Smartrak remains great.

    Smartrak not only represents an amazing, fun place to work but also a place of great opportunity. Another core belief of the company is that the work we do is meaningful and that it provides the opportunity for everyone to grow both professionally and personally.
