Much like the farmers and communities we work with, you will experience, passion, dedication and resilience across all parts of the business. With such an iconic, essential business in the Australian landscape we are confident that you too will be proud to grow your career at Elders and wear the pink shirt.

About the role

We are looking for a Category Lead - Seed, to join our growing team on a permanent, full-time basis.

Location: Ideally based in Toowoomba; however, we're open to considering the right candidate from anywhere across Queensland or Northern NSW.

As a Category Lead - Seed, you will be responsible for driving the regional implementation of the national retail strategy across the Elders branch network for your designated category. Reporting to the Region Retail Manager, you will provide specialist expertise, guidance and support to branch retail teams to help achieve category targets and deliver strong commercial outcomes across the region.

Working collaboratively with branch and regional teams, you will leverage your expertise and influence to build capability, drive category performance and ensure the network operates in alignment with national retail strategy, priorities and direction.

Responsibilities:

  • Identify and deliver growth opportunities by developing and implementing targeted regional initiatives, including opportunities across new products, customer segments, markets and channels.
  • Build category capability across the region by providing branch teams with relevant product, service and sales process knowledge, and developing practical resources such as category insights, sales tools and customer engagement strategies.
  • Partner with key stakeholders to improve category outcomes by working closely with the Retail Centre of Direction, Branch Managers, agronomists and branch retail teams to execute category plans, drive margin improvement and ensure alignment with national strategy.
  • Develop strong supplier and industry relationships by managing relationships with suppliers and technical representatives, leveraging their expertise and insights to support category growth, product adoption and regional performance.

About you

  • A degree in Business, Agriculture or a related discipline, or equivalent relevant industry experience. Relevant accreditation for the assigned category (e.g. Agsafe, ChemCert, nutrition or animal health) is desirable or required where applicable.
  • Agricultural industry experience, ideally within rural products, retail or an agribusiness environment.
  • Strong knowledge of product logistics, inventory management and supply chain processes.
  • Branch management experience is desirable, with strong commercial acumen across margin, inventory management and return on capital.
  • Sound understanding of marketing, pricing, product ranging and margin management, including promotional planning and execution.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
