Business Development Executive (King Country)

About the role

Farmers with Halter are writing the playbook for a new production system, paving a new way of managing their land and animals, and unlocking more productive and sustainable uses of the world's agricultural land.

Halter helps farmers to grow more grass and graze their land more efficiently while driving methyl performance and monitoring every cow 24 / 7.

Farmers no longer need to get up at 4am to get the cows in, put up a fence, measure pasture, or detect heats—everything is done automatically and proactively through the Halter App.

They can schedule their mobs to meet them at the dairy for milking, run as many mobs as they want, and allocate precisely the right amount of feed.

Welcome to farming with Halter!

We are searching for a driven hunter with a strong track record to lead Halter's expansion in the King Country market.

This is an opportunity to positively disrupt an industry and pioneer groundbreaking change on some of the highest-performing dairy farms.

You will lead the King Country expansion for one of the world's fastest-growing companies by equipping farms with Halter technology that transforms the way they farm, becoming leaders in productivity and sustainability.

You will work closely with a passionate Customer team on-ground and with people at Halter's Auckland HQ to ensure this is the best job you'll ever have.

The role can be based anywhere in the King Country region; the applicant must live within the region, and daily travel to farmers is required.
