Senior Account Manager

Trade Me is one of New Zealand's most popular websites with over four million members and more than 600,000 Kiwis visiting our site every day.

‍

This role can be based in either Hamilton or Auckland (obviously involving more travel as the role is looking after clients in the Waikato region).

‍

You'll have the best time working at Trade Me, and this is why:

#Flexible

Flexibility means different things to different people and we support you to find what works, including a home office set up and utilities allowance.

‍

#Wellness

Being your best self means caring for your physical and mental wellbeing, we offer lots of resources to help you along the way.

‍

#Leave

We support you with leave when you need it, including 5 days of wellness leave each year and 10 days of sick leave from day 1.

‍

#Social

Nothing beats getting together to have some fun and celebrate our success. Join us in the office on payday for company paid lunches. Friday drinks and nibbles every fortnight, annual Trade Me company awards, celebrations and more.

‍

#Learning

Whether it's on the job, formal training, mentoring or something else, you'll grow with us from Day 1.

* Plan and offer product solutions that deliver on the specific needs of clients through applying tailored value propositions.

* Maintain and grow our reputation of being a 'liked and trusted industry partner' while driving sales and growing revenue.

* Experience in strategic planning to achieve results.

* You'll be resilient, and comfortable being challenged and you'll also know how to respectfully challenge others.

* A media, marketing or digital sales background would be an advantage for this role.

* Experience with Salesforce or other CRM systems is desirable but not essential.

* Solid analytical skills - the ability to see opportunities through effective use of data.

* Strong presentation skills - the ability to deliver a compelling story to one or many.

* You'll be a confident communicator, who can engage with people from different walks of life.

We know some candidates can be reluctant to apply for roles if they feel they don't 'tick all the boxes'. If you're excited about this opportunity, we'd still really like to hear from you.

At Trade Me, we're about connecting Kiwis to create the life they want. Whether it's the big things like finding a home, a job, a car or growing their business, or the smaller things, like finding that right bedside table or parting ways with some old stuff.
