About the Role
This is a hands-on, generalist Territory Manager role covering Christchurch and the West Coast.
- You’ll be based in Christchurch, managing local accounts day-to-day
- You’ll travel to the West Coast (around a 3-hour drive from Christchurch)
- The rest of your time will be spent across Christchurch and surrounding areas, including some traditional retail accounts
This is a mix of:
- On-premise accounts (bars, pubs, restaurants) on the Coast
- Traditional / retail accounts around Christchurch
What You’ll Be Doing
- Build strong relationships with customers across your territory
- Manage and grow sales across both on-premise and retail accounts
- Execute promotions, activations, and in-store activity
- Drive distribution, visibility, and share growth
- Pick up and physically manage stock where needed (this is an active role)
- Work closely with internal teams to deliver great outcomes for customers
What We’re Looking For
We’re after someone who is:
- Ready to roll up their sleeves and get stuck in
- Positive, reliable, and team-focused – attitude is key
- Comfortable in a physical role (lifting and moving stock is part of the job)
- Keen to learn and build a career in FMCG / sales
- Some exposure to retail, hospitality, or liquor industry is helpful
- Bottle store or on-premise experience is a bonus
- Could suit someone early in their career (e.g. recent graduate working in retail/hospitality looking to step up)
Keen to Apply?
We don’t expect you to tick every box. If you’ve got the right attitude, energy, and willingness to learn – we’d love to hear from you.
