Sales Development Representative

Build relationships. Create opportunities. Help make Kiwi workplaces safer.

If you enjoy talking to people, building relationships, and picking up the phone to create opportunities, this could be the role for you.

At Safety 'n Action, we help thousands of Kiwis every year stay safe at work through practical, hands-on health and safety training that genuinely makes a difference. We're looking for someone with some sales or customer-facing experience who's confident on the phone, enjoys connecting with people, and is motivated by turning conversations into bookings.

This is a hands-on, phone-based sales role where you'll spend much of your day speaking with organisations, following up on opportunities, reconnecting with existing clients, and introducing new customers to our training solutions. If you enjoy the rhythm of outbound calling and the satisfaction of achieving results, you'll fit right in.

While some sales experience is important, we're just as interested in your attitude. If you're positive, resilient, organised, and enjoy building relationships, we'll give you the support you need to succeed. You'll work alongside an experienced, highly supportive telesales team and collaborate with our wider sales team across New Zealand, sharing ideas, celebrating success, and helping each other achieve great results.

What you'll do

• Research and identify new customers
• Contact organisations to discuss their workplace health and safety training needs
• Follow up on warm leads generated by our marketing team
• Reconnect with existing and previous clients
• Keep opportunities organised in our CRM system
• Help grow course bookings and contribute to the success of the team

What we're looking for

• Some experience in telesales, outbound sales, or another phone-based customer-facing role
• Confidence in speaking with people over the phone
• A positive attitude and a genuine drive to achieve results
• Curiosity, persistence, and resilience
• Good organisational skills and attention to detail
• Someone who enjoys being part of a supportive, high-performing team

What's in it for you

• A strong pipeline of potential clients and warm leads
• A friendly, down-to-earth workplace where people genuinely support one another
• The opportunity to work alongside an experienced telesales team and collaborate with sales colleagues across New Zealand
• A growing organisation with real momentum
• A range of company benefits

Why you'll love it here

We proudly support our local communities across Aotearoa, based on Auckland's North Shore, helping make Kiwi workplaces safer every day. Our people come from all walks of life, but share the same drive: to make a difference and enjoy the work while they do it.

So, if you've got the energy, people skills, and drive to build strong client relationships, we'd love to hear from you.
