Gallagher is a New Zealand technology manufacturer known for electric fencing and access control systems. Its security division builds perimeter protection and site management software used by governments and critical infrastructure. The company exports to more than a hundred and thirty countries.

Bouw markten. Win klanten. Help de Europese landbouw veranderen.

Al meer dan 85 jaar werkt Gallagher samen met boeren om praktische uitdagingen in de landbouw op te lossen. Vandaag zet eShepherd™, Gallaghers virtuele afrasteringstechnologie voor rundvee, die innovatieve aanpak voort.

eShepherd combineert GPS-halsbanden op zonne-energie met intelligente software, waardoor veehouders meer flexibiliteit krijgen bij het beheren van rundvee, begrazing en virtuele grenzen.

Nu eShepherd verder groeit in Europa, zoeken we een gedreven Business Development Manager die commerciële kansen weet om te zetten in duurzame groei.

Dit is geen rol waarin je simpelweg een bestaande klantenportefeuille beheert.

Dit is echte business development.

Je opent deuren, bouwt relaties op, ontwikkelt nieuwe markten en wint nieuwe klanten.

De uitdaging

Als Business Development Manager - Europa ben je verantwoordelijk voor het ontwikkelen van nieuwe business in Europese markten.

Je bouwt vanaf de basis een sterke pipeline op, identificeert potentiële klanten en partners en begeleidt commerciële gesprekken van het eerste contact tot een succesvolle overeenkomst.

Je werkt rechtstreeks met boeren, veehouders en partners in de sector. Je begrijpt hun uitdagingen en laat zien waar eShepherd daadwerkelijk waarde kan toevoegen.

Daarnaast breng je belangrijke marktinformatie terug naar onze organisatie, waaronder klantbehoeften, concurrentie, prijsfeedback en nieuwe commerciële kansen.

Jouw talenkennis kan het verschil maken

Europa is niet één markt. Taal, relaties, landbouwsystemen en lokale kennis zijn belangrijk.

Vloeiend Engels is vereist. Kennis van aanvullende Europese talen is een groot voordeel, met name Duits, Nederlands, Frans, Hongaars of Zweeds.

Kun je klanten in hun eigen taal benaderen en vertrouwen opbouwen? Dan zien we dat als een belangrijke commerciële kracht.

Wat ga je doen?

  • Actief nieuwe business ontwikkelen.

  • Een sterke commerciële pipeline opbouwen en beheren.

  • Relaties ontwikkelen met boeren, veehouders, partners en andere stakeholders.

  • Klantgesprekken, presentaties en onderhandelingen leiden.

  • Commerciële kansen omzetten in duurzame omzet.

  • Nieuwe markten, partnerships en groeimogelijkheden identificeren.

  • eShepherd vertegenwoordigen op relevante landbouw- en branche-evenementen.

  • Markt-, klant- en concurrentie-informatie delen met het bredere team.

Wat breng je mee?

Je bent een business builder: commercieel, nieuwsgierig, ondernemend en gemotiveerd door het creëren van nieuwe kansen.

Idealiter heb je:

  • Aantoonbaar succes in new business en klantenwerving.

  • Sterke prospecting-, pipeline- en onderhandelingsvaardigheden.

  • Een adviserende en relationele verkoopstijl.

  • Het vermogen zelfstandig in verschillende markten te opereren.

  • Sterke commerciële, communicatie- en presentatievaardigheden.

  • Bereidheid om binnen Europa te reizen.

  • Ervaring in landbouw, veehouderij, AgTech of technische B2B-sales is een pré.

Waarom Gallagher eShepherd?

Je krijgt het beste van twee werelden: het ondernemerschap en de commerciële mogelijkheden van een groeiend AgTech-bedrijf, ondersteund door de ervaring, schaal en geloofwaardigheid van Gallagher.

Breng je commerciële instinct. Breng je talen. Breng je vermogen om deuren te openen.

English

Build markets. Win customers. Help change the way Europe farms.

For more than 85 years, Gallagher has worked alongside farmers to solve real-world agricultural challenges. Today, that spirit of innovation continues through eShepherd™, Gallagher’s virtual fencing technology for cattle.

eShepherd combines solar-powered, GPS-enabled neckbands with intelligent software, giving farmers greater flexibility to manage cattle, grazing and virtual boundaries remotely. It’s practical technology designed around the realities of farming.

Now, as eShepherd expands across Europe, we’re looking for an exceptional Business Development Manager to help turn opportunity into sustainable commercial growth.

This is not a role focused on maintaining an established portfolio.

This is true business development.

You’ll open doors, build relationships, develop new markets and win customers. If you’re at your best creating opportunities where they didn’t exist before, this could be the role for you.

The opportunity

As Business Development Manager - Europe, you’ll take ownership of developing new business across European markets.

You’ll build a strong pipeline from the ground up, identify prospective customers and partners, and lead commercial conversations from first introduction through to agreement.

You’ll work directly with farmers, livestock producers and industry partners, understanding their challenges and demonstrating where eShepherd can create genuine value. You’ll also bring valuable market intelligence back into the business, helping us understand customer needs, competitor activity, pricing and emerging opportunities.

Your language skills could be a real advantage

Europe isn’t one market. Relationships, language, farming practices and local understanding matter.

We’re particularly interested in people who combine strong commercial capability with the ability to communicate across cultures.

Fluent English is required, and additional European language capability would be highly advantageous, particularly German, Dutch, French, Hungarian or Swedish.

Whether you speak two languages or several, your ability to build relationships with customers in their own language could be a genuine strength as we grow.

What you’ll own

· Hunt for and develop new business opportunities across your markets.

· Build and actively manage a high-quality commercial pipeline.

· Develop trusted relationships with farmers, livestock producers, partners and industry stakeholders.

· Lead compelling customer conversations, presentations and negotiations.

· Convert opportunities into customers and sustainable revenue.

· Identify potential markets, partnerships and commercial opportunities.

· Represent eShepherd at relevant agricultural events and industry forums.

· Share customer, competitor and market intelligence with the wider business.

· Collaborate across Gallagher and eShepherd as we continue our international growth.

What you’ll bring

You’re a business builder: commercially driven, curious, resilient and comfortable creating something rather than inheriting it.

Ideally, you’ll bring:

· A proven record of winning new business and acquiring new customers.

· Strong prospecting, pipeline management and negotiation capability.

· A consultative, relationship-led approach to selling.

· Confidence working autonomously across multiple markets.

· Strong commercial judgement and the resilience to navigate complex sales cycles.

· Excellent communication and presentation skills.

· The flexibility to travel across Europe.

· Experience in agriculture, livestock, AgTech or technical B2B sales would be highly valuable.

Why Gallagher eShepherd?

Here, you get something unusual: the opportunity and ownership of a growing AgTech business backed by the heritage, scale and credibility of Gallagher.

It’s an opportunity to take proven agricultural innovation into new markets, build lasting customer relationships and have a visible impact on our European growth story.

Bring your commercial instinct. Bring your languages. Bring your ability to open doors.

Let’s build something remarkable across Europe.

Applications will be reviewed as they are received, and the role may be filled before the closing date.
