Stop Looking for "Just Another Sales Job."
You're stuck selling phones, gym memberships, insurance, or working in retail or hospitality wondering when you'll get your first real opportunity.
This is it.
We're looking for driven, competitive people who want to build a genuine career in sales, not just earn an hourly wage.
Why This Role?
We partner with some of New Zealand's fastest-growing software and hardware companies that sell their technology across the world.
These businesses are expanding quickly and investing heavily in their sales teams, creating genuine opportunities for people who want to grow into Account Executive, Customer Success, Leadership, and beyond.
These aren't massive corporates where you're just another number.
They're ambitious businesses building high-performing sales teams, meaning you'll have real visibility, real responsibility, and real opportunities to progress.
In fact, we've recently placed two graduates from retail and hospitality backgrounds who are already thriving in their new sales careers, hitting KPIs and proving that attitude and work ethic matter far more than previous sales experience.
What You'll Be Doing As a Sales Development Representative (SDR), you'll be the first point of contact for potential customers.
Your role is simple:
- Build relationships with prospective customers.
- Start conversations with decision-makers.
- Identify opportunities for the wider sales team.
- Smash activity and performance targets.
- Learn the foundations of professional technology sales.
This is an office-based, target-driven role where effort, resilience, and consistency are rewarded.
We Invest in Your Development One of the biggest advantages of joining us is that you don't just get a job, you gain access to the Apprento Sales Development Programme.

- Fortnightly development sessions.
- Access to industry-leading AI tools used by modern sales teams.
- Practical sales training you can apply every day.
- Support to help you become one of the top performers in your team.
You'll develop skills that companies actively look for and that can open doors throughout your sales career.

- In an entry-level or intermediate sales role looking for something bigger.
- Competitive through sport or other high-performance environments.

You'll thrive if you are: - Competitive and target-driven.
- A confident communicator who enjoys talking to people.

- Energized by working with a high-performing team.
