Trade Account Manager – South West WA

Account Manager – South West WA

Busselton

Build Relationships. Win Projects. Grow Your Career.

Since 1969, M&B has been helping Western Australians build.

Today, we are one of Western Australia's leading independent suppliers of timber, hardware, doors, building materials and trade solutions, supporting builders, contractors and commercial customers across metropolitan and regional WA.

Proudly 50% owned by Mitre 10 Australia and backed by the strength of the Metcash Group, M&B combines the agility of a local business with the scale and stability of a national network.

Due to continued growth across the South West region, we are seeking an experienced Account Manager to join our high-performing team.

This is an opportunity to inherit and grow an established portfolio of customers while developing new opportunities throughout one of Western Australia's most active and desirable construction markets.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

✔ Established customer portfolio with immediate opportunities

✔ Work with some of the South West's leading builders, contractors and developers

✔ Company vehicle, phone and tools of trade provided

✔ Strong support from experienced branch and operational teams

✔ Genuine career progression opportunities within a growing WA business

✔ Backed by the strength of Mitre 10 and Metcash

✔ Live and work in one of Australia's most sought-after lifestyle regions

About the Role

Reporting to the Branch Manager, you will be responsible for managing and growing a portfolio of trade, residential and commercial customers across Busselton, Dunsborough and Margaret River.

This is a relationship-driven role focused on identifying opportunities, winning projects, managing quotations and delivering exceptional customer outcomes.

You will become a trusted advisor to your customers, helping them deliver successful projects while driving profitable growth for M&B.

Key responsibilities include:

• Managing and growing an established customer portfolio

• Building strong relationships with builders, contractors, developers and tradespeople

• Identifying and converting new business opportunities

• Preparing and following up project quotations

• Securing residential and commercial project opportunities

• Conducting regular customer visits and site meetings

• Developing account growth plans and sales strategies

• Collaborating with internal teams to ensure outstanding customer service

• Achieving sales, margin and growth targets

About You

We are seeking a driven and commercially minded sales professional who understands the value of relationships and enjoys helping customers succeed.

You will ideally bring:

• Proven success in Account Management, Business Development or Sales

• Experience within building materials, construction, hardware, timber or related industries

• Strong relationship-building and negotiation skills

• Experience managing customer quotations and project opportunities

• Commercial acumen and a growth mindset

• Excellent communication and organisational skills

• A proactive and customer-focused approach

• Current Australian Driver's Licence

Most importantly, you are someone who enjoys being in front of customers, building trust, solving problems and creating long-term partnerships.

What Success Looks Like

Within your first 12 months, you will have established yourself as a trusted advisor to customers, strengthened key relationships, secured new project opportunities and contributed significantly to the continued growth of M&B throughout the South West.
