Smart Tech, Real Impact - Backed by a Global Leader

Gallagher is a global leader in high-tech solutions, trusted in over 160 countries - and we’re shaking up smart farming with eShepherd™, our world-first virtual fencing technology that’s revolutionising how farmers manage livestock.

Using GPS-enabled, solar-powered neckbands, farmers can monitor, move, and manage cattle from anywhere - boosting productivity, sustainability, and profitability while transforming land use and animal welfare.

We’re on the hunt for a Business Development Manager with real-world animal agriculture experience, a background in ag science or ag-comm, and a hunter mentality to drive growth across our New Zealand market but based in the Canterbury Region.

We’re looking for a high-performing Business Development Manager who thrives on chasing opportunities, building relationships, and driving growth. If you’ve got the sales grit and a passion for AgTech, let’s shape the future of eShepherd together.

What You’ll Tackle

This is a high-impact, growth-focused role where you’ll take ownership of driving revenue and building strong relationships with farmers, distributors, and partners.

• Champion the eShepherd value proposition, tailoring solutions for each farm’s unique needs
• Provide insights to inform product development and go-to-market strategies
• Support major tenders, contract negotiations, and account growth
• Collaborate closely with marketing and customer success teams to deliver an exceptional experience from first contact to long-term adoption

What You’re Made Of

You’re a natural connector, a strategic thinker, and a relentless doer. You thrive in the paddock and the boardroom.

Must-haves:

• Hands-on experience in animal agriculture – you understand the realities of livestock farming
• Proven success in solution-based sales with a track record of hitting targets
• A hunter mentality – you seek out opportunities, you close with confidence
• Strong emotional intelligence and communication skills
