Business Development - Technical Sales

Join a manufacturer. Work directly with customers. Make decisions. Make an impact.

TriCab is an Australian cable manufacturer with international operations, supplying specialised cable solutions for demanding applications.

We are expanding our Singapore-based regional operation and are looking for a commercially minded technical salesperson who knows—or wants to build a career in—the marine, offshore, oil and gas, and wider industrial markets.

NO MIDDLEMAN. You will represent the manufacturer directly, working with customers, our technical team and our factory to solve problems, respond quickly and turn opportunities into real solutions.

Depending on your experience, you may begin in an internally focused technical sales position with a clear pathway into external sales—or take responsibility for customer-facing business development from the outset.

Why this role is different

• A genuinely flat structure—you will not be buried beneath layers of management.
• A small, agile team where your ideas, judgement and decisions can make a visible difference.
• Real autonomy and independence—we want someone who can take ownership, not simply follow a script.
• Direct access to manufacturing, engineering and senior decision-makers.
• A clear opportunity to progress from internal technical sales into an external customer-facing role.
• Annual travel to our Australian manufacturing facility for product training, technical development, conferences and team events.
• Strong scope to build your profile, expand your responsibilities and progress as our Singapore and regional operations grow.

Who we are looking for

• Experience selling technical products, components, equipment or engineered solutions into marine, offshore, oil and gas, shipbuilding or related industrial markets.
• You may currently work in internal sales, technical sales, account management, business development or external sales.
• A technical qualification is useful, but practical product knowledge, curiosity and the ability to understand customer applications matter just as much.
• Confidence communicating with engineers, procurement teams, contractors, distributors and end users.
• Strong commercial awareness and the ability to identify both technical and commercial opportunities.
• A self-motivated approach and the confidence to operate with a high level of trust, independence and responsibility.

What you will do

• Develop and manage customer relationships across Singapore and selected regional markets.
• Work directly with customers to understand their applications, specifications and project requirements.
• Identify opportunities where TriCab can provide a better technical or commercial solution.
• Prepare and follow up quotations, respond to technical enquiries and progress opportunities through to order.
• Coordinate closely with TriCab’s engineering, production and management teams to move opportunities forward quickly.
• Help shape our market strategy—this is a role where you can influence how we grow, not simply inherit a fixed territory plan.

Remuneration and opportunity

The salary and package are negotiable based on experience.

We are more interested in finding someone with the right technical understanding, commercial ability, attitude and potential than forcing the role into a narrow salary band.

This is an opportunity to join a growing regional operation, work directly with an established manufacturer and build a role with genuine autonomy, visibility and long-term career potential.
