The Role
We are looking for a Business Development Manager to own pipeline development across NXTGEN's core sectors — infrastructure, rail, construction, and mining. This is a strategic and execution-focused commercial role that spans first contact through to commercial close, across deals with long cycles, technical decision-makers, and complex procurement structures.
What You Will Do
- Develop and execute a sector-specific pipeline strategy across infrastructure, rail, construction, and mining
- Build and maintain relationships with asset owners, tier-1 contractors, government agencies, and infrastructure operators
- Lead commercial conversations from initial qualification through to proposal, negotiation, and close
- Translate technical product capability into procurement-ready commercial proposals and tender responses
- Work closely with the engineering and operations teams to scope, price, and deliver pilot engagements
- Represent NXTGEN at industry events, conferences, and sector forums
- Maintain CRM hygiene and pipeline reporting for leadership visibility
What We Are Looking For
- 5+ years of business development or enterprise sales experience in infrastructure, construction, rail, mining, or industrial technology
- Demonstrated ability to navigate long, complex sales cycles with technical and commercial counterparts
- Strong understanding of Australian government and private sector procurement processes
- Experience working with tier-1 contractors, asset owners, or infrastructure operators at a senior stakeholder level
- Commercially sharp — able to build proposals, model commercial structures, and negotiate terms
- Comfortable with ambiguity and early-stage company dynamics
Where You’ll Work
Our head office is in Melbourne and we have a second office in Sydney. We are open to flexible and remote working arrangements anywhere in Australia for the right person, so where you are based should not stop you from applying.
This role does involve periodic travel to sites where our systems are deployed, across infrastructure, rail and construction projects around the country.
