A high-growth global tech vendor is scaling its presence in NZ, and they’re looking for a confident, relationships-first Enterprise AE to own the Auckland commercial market.

You’ll be the face of the business on the ground-backed by strong partners, great tech, and a team who actually knows how NZ operates (not the “copy/paste from Australia” approach).
