IN A NUTSHELL

Bellroy is a global business (founded in Melbourne, Australia) with a bold growth plan. Since we sold our first wallet in 2011, we’ve diversified into tech products, bags and accessories; we’re now a team of 100 staff, selling in more than 1200 doorways and directly to consumers in 150 countries.

We recognized pretty early on that we could use business as a force for good. So, as a certified B Corp, we constantly pursue better ways to source our leathers, reduce our impact on the environment and make sure our products last as long as possible. We’re proud of the products we make and think it’s pretty awesome when companies want to gift our considered products to their clients, customers and staff. Our Corporate Sales channel was formalised in 2018 and has more than doubled YoY since its inception. We see plenty of growth ahead, and with the right person at the helm, are excited to see where this growing space could be taken. We already partner with a best-in-class promotional product supplier in the United States and we’re keen to further develop that relationship and grow responsibly by co-branding with like-minded companies globally. If you’re looking for a sales role within an ethical business, with plenty of room for personal and professional development; you've found it.

Bring us your positive energy, people skills and way with words. We’ll match you with a world-class team, the autonomy to bring your spin to the role and the support you need to flourish.

YOU COULD BE THE ONE, IF YOU…

• Have 5-10 years of sales experience in corporate gifting or promotional product channels, ideally working for a brand in the lifestyle, travel or fashion space.
• Understand the nuances of the B2B space including employee incentives, recognition & reward, loyalty programs, and corporate gifting.
• Are familiar with promotional product suppliers and understand their decoration requirements and distributor pricing models. You also feel comfortable working with direct customers and can negotiate those deals with ease to build an ongoing relationship.
• Have attended relevant trade shows in the B2B space and bring an entrepreneurial spirit and ‘can do’ attitude that will drive you to seek out other trade events and new business opportunities.
• Can delicately balance new opportunities to ensure all measures are taken to block gray market distribution. You take pride in keeping with Bellroy’s brand identity and mission.
• Have the interpersonal skills and desire to work with varying levels of decision-makers inside both large and small companies.
• Can partner and collaborate effectively with Bellroy’s internal cross functional teams to ensure ongoing product, decoration, and shipping needs are met.
• Have a little bit of design geek in you. We challenge the way carry goods have always been designed, and often the brilliance of our products needs some explanation. You’re comfortable doing so in a compelling, well-informed and genuine manner.
• Are motivated by a challenge, and by delivering exceptional results for a young brand doing awesome things. At Bellroy, we focus on long-term quality relationships with the right businesses (and people), to ensure our common goals are met.
