Full Job Description

At Certis Security Australia, we deliver innovative, integrated security solutions that create safer environments — including major events and high-profile sites across Australia.

Our commitment is to a Safer, Smarter and Better workplace, where people are supported, respected and empowered. As Australia’s only next-generation security company operating at scale, we’re transforming how we work through technology, automation and operational excellence.

Behind every safe, successful operation is accurate data and disciplined processes.

Job Impact

Certis is seeking a commercially astute and relationship-focused Business Development Manager to drive growth within defined industry segments. Your success will stem from sector knowledge, market credibility, and the ability to translate client needs into value-led solutions.

You will lead new business acquisition, support strategic tenders, and collaborate with internal specialists to deliver tailored, commercially sound security solutions. This role requires engagement with senior stakeholders, market insight, and a disciplined approach to pipeline management.

Key Responsibilities

New Business & Market Entry

Identify, qualify, and secure new business opportunities within assigned industry segments
Leverage networks and relationships to access decision-makers
Build and manage a pipeline focused on quality, value, and conversion

Segment & Sector Expertise

Develop a thorough understanding of customer drivers, risks, and trends
Position Certis’ integrated security, technology, and innovation solutions to address client challenges
Share market intelligence to strengthen bids and overall positioning

Client Engagement & Influence

Design and execute multi-level engagement strategies across senior stakeholders
Establish credibility through insight-led discussions rather than product-led selling
Build long-term partnerships and position Certis as a trusted provider

Tenders & Proposals

Lead end-to-end tender activities in collaboration with internal experts
Ensure submissions are compelling, compliant, and commercially sound
Balance client expectations with operational and financial considerations

Governance & Collaboration

Maintain accurate CRM and pipeline reporting
Follow contract review and approval processes
Collaborate effectively across support services and internal teams

Candidate Profile

The successful candidate will be a proven business developer with strong commercial acumen and the ability to engage senior decision-makers. Essential attributes include:

Demonstrated success in new business acquisition within services-based industries (e.g., facilities management, property, cleaning, or similar)
Strong local market knowledge and credibility with senior stakeholders
Experience leading or contributing to strategic tenders
Confident engagement across multiple levels and functions
Disciplined approach to pipeline management and governance
High integrity, resilience, and personal drive

Desirable: experience in the security industry; prior experience in services/contract businesses is advantageous.

Why Join Certis?

Competitive base salary with performance-based commission (final structure subject to approval)
Hybrid working model supporting flexibility and work-life balance
Career development with exposure to national and global opportunities
Employee wellbeing initiatives and EAP support
Discounts at 400+ retailers for you and your family
Inclusive, values-led culture aligned to Safer, Smarter, Better

How to Apply

If you are a relationship-driven business developer seeking to deliver measurable impact and grow your career within a dynamic, values-led organisation, we encourage you to apply.

Diversity Statement

Within Certis Australia, we believe our strength lies in the diversity of our people. We offer an inclusive culture where you can be your authentic self, contribute your unique perspective and grow with equal opportunities for advancement. Our commitment to a Safer, Smarter and Better workplace ensures every employee is supported, respected and empowered. We actively encourage First Nations and Torres Strait Islander people to apply as we build a brighter future, where all voices matter.
