State Sales Manager (Queensland)

Simon George & Sons is a fourth-generation, family-owned wholesale business with a proud history and a strong national footprint. Built on long-standing relationships, trust, and service reliability, the business continues to invest in people and capability as it grows.
An opportunity now exists for a State Sales Manager (Queensland) to join the business in a newly created leadership role, supporting sales performance and capability across Brisbane, Townsville, and Cairns.

The Opportunity
This role has been created to strengthen sales execution and consistency across Queensland, while preserving the local relationships and autonomy that underpin success. Working closely with the National Sales Manager and local General Managers, the State Sales Manager provides leadership, coaching, and structure to support sales teams to perform with confidence and discipline.
This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who enjoys being close to the business, supporting teams on the ground, and helping translate strategy into practical action.

Key Focus Areas

• Supporting the delivery of Queensland sales revenue and margin targets through disciplined execution
• Providing consistent sales leadership and coaching across Brisbane, Townsville, and Cairns
• Lifting capability in sales planning, pipeline management, forecasting, and follow-through
• Supporting new business development, including larger or longer-term opportunities
• Working closely with General Managers to align sales activity with operational capability
• Reinforcing national sales priorities while respecting local market dynamics

About You
You are an experienced sales leader with a strong track record supporting or leading teams across multiple locations. You bring credibility through your understanding of sales, your ability to build trust, and your willingness to be present with teams when it matters.

You lead in a practical, grounded way and value ownership, accountability, and honest communication. You are comfortable working collaboratively, supporting others to succeed rather than directing from a distance.
Cultural fit is critical. You enjoy working in relationship-led environments and are motivated by contributing to long-term success rather than short-term wins.

What’s on Offer

• A newly created leadership role with real influence and impact
• The opportunity to shape how sales operate across Queensland
• Strong support from senior leadership
• Brisbane-based role with travel to Townsville and Cairns
