Head of Growth

An established, proven Kiwi agency, with the full suite of marketing solutions, and uncapped earning potential. Take ownership of growth for 2027!

• Head of Growth opportunity with an established Kiwi marketing agency
• Market leading, uncapped commission structure with an $180k OTE
• Own new business, work closely with the GM and grow a recognised brand

For over 10 years, my client has been helping small to medium-sized businesses across New Zealand grow through digital marketing solutions that deliver results.

They're a well-established, Kiwi-owned and operated agency with a strong reputation, a loyal client base and a full-service offering spanning Google Ads, SEO, social media, creative content, outdoor advertising and website development.

Having built a business that continues to perform through changing market conditions, there's plenty of momentum heading into 2027. The brand is established, the team knows its craft and the offering speaks for itself. Now it's about taking that to even more Kiwi businesses.

We're on the lookout for a true sales hunter who can help make that happen.

What you'll be doing

At its core, this is a hands on new business role. The focus is on bringing new clients into the business, building a strong pipeline and turning opportunities into revenue.

A big part of your day will be spent out and about, identifying potential clients, picking up the phone, booking meetings and getting in front of business owners. The focus is small to medium sized businesses across New Zealand, understanding their goals, challenges and where the right marketing investment could make a difference.

Rather than selling a physical product, you're selling expertise, ideas and solutions. An understanding of the marketing landscape is important, along with the ability to communicate the value of different services and show business owners what's possible.

Reporting to the GM, you'll work closely with the leadership team to identify opportunities, shape your approach to the market and make the most of the tools and data available.

There's plenty of autonomy to own your day, an established team behind you and the opportunity to play a big part in the agency's next stage of growth. With an excellent commission structure, there's some serious earning potential on the table!

Key responsibilities

• Identifying opportunities, prospecting and building your own pipeline
• Building relationships, booking meetings and getting in front of business owners
• Understanding client objectives and presenting tailored marketing solutions across digital, creative and traditional channels

So, who are you?

You're a proven salesperson who knows how to open doors, build relationships and win new business.

The hunt is what gets you going. You're comfortable approaching new prospects, holding commercial conversations with decision makers and turning those conversations into opportunities.

A good understanding of the marketing landscape is important. Whether your background is in a digital agency, advertising, media or another marketing related environment, you know the services, the value they bring and how to communicate that to clients.

This is an autonomous role, so drive, initiative and a hunger to succeed are essential. You're commercially minded, back yourself and want an earning opportunity that rewards performance

You will bring:

• Proven success in a Business Development or new business sales role
• Experience or an understanding of digital marketing, advertising or the wider marketing landscape
• Confidence selling expertise, services and solutions to business owners and senior decision makers
• A true hunter mentality, with experience prospecting, building pipelines and converting new business

So, what's in it for you?

This is your opportunity to step into a Head of Growth position within an established agency that has the reputation, people and expertise to support your success. With a strong commission structure on offer, there is some serious money to be made here.

You will work directly with the GM and owners, you'll have the opportunity to make your mark, grow an established brand and play an important part in where the business goes next.
