A DAY IN THE LIFE OF THE TECHNICAL SALES REPRESENTATIVE & BRANCH SUPERVISOR

The Technical Sales Representative & Branch Supervisor will balance two important areas of the business: developing the market for poultry equipment, products and services while overseeing the day-to-day operations of the Palmerston branch.

You will spend time in the market meeting with poultry producers, assessing their needs, recommending technical solutions, preparing and following up on quotations, developing new business and building long-term customer relationships. You will also oversee branch operations, support and supervise staff, coordinate resources, monitor inventory and expenses, and help ensure customers receive consistent, knowledgeable service.

A key part of your role will be increasing the company’s presence in the Palmerston territory. You will be expected to proactively develop relationships, pursue recent customers and opportunities, and build a strong pipeline of business rather than simply maintaining an existing customer base.
