Are you hungry to succeed and ready to take on the challenge of building relationships and closing deals?
We’re looking for a motivated Sales Representative to join our tight knit Sales team!

Who we are:

At Rubbish Direct, our people are the core of our success. Since our founding in 1999, we’ve been 100% New Zealand-owned and operated, focused on providing exceptional service to meet the diverse needs of our customers.

  • Team Player with a Sense of Humour: Works well in a small, close-knit team to achieve collective success. Being able to see the funny side of things is a must.
  • Tech-Savvy & Organised: While formal qualifications aren’t required, basic level of computer literacy is essential.
  • Trustworthy & Relatable: Builds strong customer relationships based on trust and communication.
  • Critical Thinker & Problem Solver: Able to analyse leads effectively and takes ownership of challenges with a solution-oriented mindset. Your motto is “Leave it to me, I will take care of it for you”.
  • Great Communicator: You can talk to anyone, at all levels of the organisation, and make a strong impression.
  • Reliable & Disciplined: Consistently dependable with strong attention to detail and follow-through.

What We Offer:

At Rubbish Direct, we understand that our success depends on the well-being of our people. In addition to a competitive salary, we offer a comprehensive benefits package that reflects our commitment to employee wellbeing, including:

  • Health Insurance – Comprehensive medical coverage for you and your immediate family.

Submit a video cover letter with your CV. In the video cover letter, we’d love to hear about you and why you’d be a perfect fit for the role. A 2-minute sales pitch about yourself if you will! Please note that you must have the legal right to work in New Zealand to apply for this role.
