Sales Director – ANZ Region | Broadcast & Sports Media Technology

I'm working closely with a global leader in professional video delivery technology, currently expanding their footprint across the ANZ region. As part of this growth, we're hiring a Sales Director based in Sydney to lead commercial efforts across broadcasters, sports organisations, and Tier 1 network providers.

This is a priority hire, with interviews led directly by the regional head, who is building the APAC business from the ground up. The company already has deployment teams active in Australia and New Zealand, and existing partnerships. The opportunity now is to drive new revenue, particularly through the sports network—engaging up to C-level stakeholders across leagues, federations, and broadcasters.

Key Details

• Location: Sydney (must be based locally)
• Package: AU$280–300K OTE 
• Start Date: Ideally ASAP

What You’ll Be Doing

• Leading sales strategy and execution across ANZ, aligned with global objectives
• Building relationships with broadcasters, sports organisations, and telcos
• Managing the full sales cycle for complex video delivery solutions
• Leveraging existing deployments and partnerships to accelerate growth
• Representing the business at industry events and customer meetings
• Collaborating cross-functionally to shape product and service offerings

Ideal Candidate Profile

• 8+ years in enterprise sales or business development, ideally in media tech
• Strong network across broadcast and sports sectors, especially at C-level
• Experience selling complex solutions in OTT, IP networking, cloud workflows, or video compression
• Commercially driven, with a consultative approach and trusted-advisor mindset
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, scale-up environment

Why This Role Stands Out

This is a rare opportunity to join a globally respected tech company at a pivotal moment in their APAC expansion. You’ll inherit existing relationships, work with cutting-edge technology, and have the autonomy to shape the region’s success—especially within the high-growth sports vertical.

If you’re based in Sydney and ready to take on a strategic, high-impact role in broadcast and sports media tech, I’d love to speak with you. This is a priority search, so please reach out directly if you’d like to explore further.
