Job Summary

Net App is seeking a customer-focused District Sales Manager to lead our Commercial Sales team in ANZ.

This is a hands-on leadership opportunity where you’ll help your team do their best work through clear priorities, coaching, and the right support. You’ll own a new-business plan that puts a strong emphasis on acquiring new accounts (new logos) while also expanding strategic relationships within the district.

Strong executive relationships are important. You’ll support the team through complex sales cycles—including bids, proposals, and RFPs—while shaping strategy and clearly communicating customer value. Collaboration is central, working closely with internal partners and our ecosystem to open doors, create demand, and convert new opportunities into long-term customer outcomes.

This is a high-impact role focused on delivering consistent, profitable growth, building an inclusive culture of high performance, and positioning Net App as a trusted partner in the commercial and government sectors.

• Guide the team through complex sales cycles—including bids, RFPs, and executive negotiations—with an emphasis on progressing new-logo opportunities and removing roadblocks.
• Build relationships with prospective and existing commercial and government customers, acting as a trusted advisor and creating paths into new accounts.
• Drive new-logo pipeline creation through targeted prospecting, account segmentation, partner co-selling, and marketing-led demand generation.
• Ensure sales discipline through data-driven forecasting, planning, CRM rigour, and adoption of MEDDICC methodology to deliver both new business and expansion outcomes.
• Collaborate across pre-sales, marketing, channel, and customer success teams—and with strategic partners—to deliver integrated, value-led solutions and accelerate new-account wins.
• Stay close to market shifts, customer needs, and competitor moves to sharpen go-to-market execution.
• Represent the region internally shaping strategy and influencing key decisions through local insights.
• Attract, hire, and retain top sales talent, creating a supportive and inclusive culture where different perspectives are valued.

What You Bring

• 8+ years of commercial sales experience, including a strong record of acquiring new accounts (new logos) and expanding strategic customers.
• People-leadership experience in complex or changing environments, with a track record of coaching and developing diverse teams.
• Demonstrated ability to build and convert a new-business pipeline, including prospecting, partner engagement, and executive-level value messaging.
• Deep understanding of commercial IT—especially storage, cloud, and hybrid solutions.
• Executive presence and commercial acumen, with confidence engaging C-level stakeholders.
• Proficiency in managing complex deals using value-based frameworks like MEDDICC.
• Strong execution skills, structured thinking, and a consistent approach to planning and sales process.
