Six Degrees Executive is proud to be partnering on this fantastic opportunity for a driven Account Manager to join a well-established business with a strong presence across the construction and infrastructure sectors. Based in Cairns, you will manage an established regional customer portfolio, with a focus on growing market share, strengthening customer relationships and identifying new opportunities across the region. With continued activity across civil, commercial and major project work, this role is ideal for someone who enjoys being out in market, understands project-led sales and knows how to turn strong relationships into commercial outcomes.

About You You will be commercially sharp, proactive and confident managing relationships across a broad customer base. Direct industry experience would be highly regarded, but it is not essential.

• Strong relationship-building and communication skills

• Confidence managing quotes, tenders, pricing and negotiations
