About the Role

BioScout is seeking a Business Development Manager to own and run the full sales cycle for their AgTech product in the ANZ region. This role involves selling world-first sensor technology that helps farmers detect and manage airborne crop diseases, leading to better crops, reduced chemical use, and lower costs. The company has achieved product-market fit and has a live pipeline, making this a scaling opportunity rather than a build-from-scratch scenario. You will be the first dedicated ANZ sales hire, reporting to the Chief Revenue Officer and partnering with a marketing hire.

Responsibilities

  • Build and manage targeted prospect lists across ANZ: growers, agribusinesses, and farm owner-operators across BioScout's key crop verticals.
  • Run outbound sales activities including cold calls, LinkedIn outreach, and email campaigns, with a research-led approach.
  • Own the full sales cycle: qualify leads, conduct discovery calls, build business cases, navigate buying committees, and close deals.
  • Attend field days, agricultural conferences, and industry events across ANZ, involving approximately one week of travel per month.
  • Conduct on-farm visits to build relationships with key prospects and customers.
  • Maintain disciplined CRM records and provide accurate pipeline reporting.
  • Collaborate with the CRO on managing warm lead handovers from international networks.
  • Provide field intelligence to the marketing team regarding buyer language, messaging, and campaign effectiveness.

Requirements

  • Ability to engage effectively on a farm, speak plainly, ask pertinent questions, and make stakeholders feel understood.
  • Proactive in initiating conversations and comfortable with cold calling.
  • Skilled in identifying genuine sales opportunities and prioritizing efforts effectively.
  • Proven track record of meeting sales targets independently.
  • Organized approach to managing a large, active pipeline without losing track of deal status.
  • Experience in fast-paced environments where systems may be underdeveloped and priorities can shift.
  • Honest and direct communication style, avoiding overselling or making unfulfillable promises.
  • A background in agriculture, agribusiness, capital equipment, or hardware sales is beneficial.
  • Experience in fields with long buying cycles and where buyers invest their own funds is advantageous.
  • A personal connection to the land is a plus, but not a requirement.
