About us

Evolve Communities is a majority Indigenous owned business providing interactive Cultural Awareness Training and Reconciliation tools. Our goal is to have 10 million people more culturally aware, creating a kinder, more inclusive Australia.

This is a fantastic opportunity for a results-driven sales person with experience selling corporate training programs.

The role

This role will be as a part-time Sales Manager with company headquarters in the Illawarra region, Australia. You’ll report directly to the Directors, and we would like this to be a collaborative working relationship. Together, you will work on strategic and big picture goals.

This is a fantastic opportunity for an assertive, proactive, and socially focused representative who is confident in their communication, people and sales skills to close high-value deals with longer sales cycles.

The ideal candidate will have a big-picture focus and a need to drive change. They will be an out-of-the-box thinker and be undaunted by failure.

As the Sales Manager at Evolve Communities, you will be responsible for serving as a trusted advisor to prospective clients. Your goal is to understand and match clients’ needs to our service offerings so that they understand how we can help. You will manage inbound marketing leads and be proactive in generating new leads. Your compensation will consist of base salary and incentives.

With the company owner and marketing support, you will work as a team to find solutions that go to the heart of prospects’ problems and create winning proposals.

The ability to organise, plan, and autonomously structure your workload will be crucial to your success in this role. We neither have the time nor the inclination to micromanage you. You’ll have a lot of freedom in this role but also a lot of responsibility.

We are looking for someone who believes in our values of diversity, inclusion and reconciliation in action.
