Halter is looking for an Account Manager Lead to own the retention, renewal and expansion of our existing revenue across the Lower South Island. You'll lead a team of field-based Account Managers, making sure farmers are getting real, ongoing value from Halter - and that they understand the impact it's having on their business. This is as much a people leadership role as it is a commercial one. You'll coach and develop your team, build out Halter's account management capability in the region, and hold Halter's operating principles as the standard for how you and your team show up every day. This role is based in the Lower South Island, New Zealand. Travel across the South Island will be required as part of this role.

The Traits That Matter. • A track record in people leadership, or you're an excellent individual contributor who is ready and excited to take the next step into leadership. • Someone who wants a people leadership role for the right reasons - genuinely motivated by developing others and building great teams, not just chasing the next title. • Strong relationship-building skills, with the ability to earn trust with farmers and understand what success looks like for their business. •
