Agri Manager - Thames, Coromandel, Waihi.

LIC is a farmer‑owned co‑operative that has supported herd improvement in New Zealand’s dairy sector for more than 115 years. We focus on providing superior genetics, reliable testing and diagnostics, integrated on‑farm software, and great customer service, all designed to help farmers make smarter decisions every day.

About the role

Due to an internal promotion, we are looking for an Agri Manager to join the team. You’ll be the vital link between our innovative herd improvement solutions and the farmers who rely on them. You’ll champion customer relationships, drive sales performance, and bring the voice of the customer into everything we do. This role is about making a real impact—helping farmers optimise their livestock, grow sustainable businesses, and shape the future of dairy farming in New Zealand. The position covers the Thames, Coromandel and Waihi areas.

Key focus areas

• Maximise relationships with existing customers and actively build relationships with new customers.
• Successful implementation of LIC solutions and achievement of sales targets in your area.
• Identify new business opportunities with existing and new customers.
• Undertake educational and promotional initiatives with farmers.

About You

Making connections and building relationships comes naturally to you, and you genuinely enjoy customer interactions. Having a background in dairy would be advantageous, but most importantly, you’ll understand and empathise with the unique challenges our farmers face and build trust and credibility with them.

You’ll be able to use data and insights to make effective decisions and use this information to come well‑prepared to your customer visits.

What we’re looking for

In return

In addition to a competitive salary, incentive bonus and company car, you’ll receive extra leave days, flexible working options and discounted health, life, income and disability insurances. You’ll also get all the tools you need to be successful, including phone, laptop and iPad. You’ll have the support of an office‑based support person who will provide ad‑hoc support for admin, data and campaign work.
