Farmers with Halter are writing the playbook for a world-first farming system, they are paving a new way of managing their land and animals, and in doing so, are unlocking more productive and sustainable uses of the world's agricultural land along with driving optimal profitability outcomes.

We've recently launched into the Beef Market! This is an opportunity to build a new market from the bottom up. The Beef industry has not had a disruptive and influential product in years and this is your chance to make a huge impact.

As a Territory Manager at Halter, you will play a critical role in driving business growth and ensuring customer success within your designated territory. You will be responsible for executing sales strategies, building strong customer relationships, and meeting ambitious growth targets, all while acting as Halter’s on-the-ground representative. This role requires a proactive and hands-on approach, with a focus on both expansion and long-term customer satisfaction.

In this role, you will prioritise daily efforts that optimize growth performance and drive value for your customers. Working closely with cross-functional teams, including Product, Support, and other regional sales teams, you’ll share field insights to ensure Halter’s technology continues to meet the needs of farmers. Your contributions will directly support Halter’s mission to support 50% of the world's habitable landmass to be more productive and sustainable.

This role would ideally be located anywhere in the Waikato region. Frequent travel is required as part of the position.
