- Senior BDM role with car allowance, bonus & commission structure.
- Own a strategic portfolio across a thriving design & property market.
- Career growth, generous discounts & a collaborative national team.
Own your region. Build relationships that last. Drive trade growth across one of Australia's fastest-growing design and property markets — for one of its most iconic furniture brands.
The King Difference
This is not just a relationship management role with a BDM title.
This is a senior commercial role with genuine accountability — and the autonomy to match. As our Trade BDM for the Gold Coast and Northern Rivers region, you will own a defined portfolio of high-value trade partners across one of Australia’s most active residential development and interior design corridors.
You will partner with architects, designers, developers and trade clients to position King Living’s furniture collections within premium residential, commercial and design-led projects.
You will work closely with our Gold Coast showroom team to embed trade as a core capability, coach and influence internal teams, and build the kind of partner relationships that compound over time. Your role is to create meaningful commercial opportunities by connecting trade partners with furniture solutions that reflect quality, craftsmanship, functionality and enduring Australian design.
You are measured on outcomes — portfolio growth, conversion, partner depth, and execution quality. If you are a commercially sharp trade professional with a strong understanding of interiors, furniture or design-led sales, and you are ready to own a region and build something — this is the platform.
What You Will Own
Your Trade Portfolio
Manage and grow a defined portfolio of high-value trade partners across the Gold Coast and Northern Rivers — prioritising the right opportunities, managing pipeline with discipline, and driving sustainable residential trade growth.
Showroom Integration
Work closely with the Gold Coast showroom team to strengthen trade capability — coaching on trade selling, specification-led conversations, and ensuring consistent follow-up and accountability.
Partner Relationships
Be the go-to contact for key trade partners throughout the project lifecycle — managing escalations, resolving issues, and protecting long-term relationship confidence.
Trade Events & Market Presence
Lead the commercial outcomes of trade events, activations, and roadshows across your region — representing King Living credibly across the Gold Coast and Northern Rivers design and trade community.
Reporting & Onboarding
Keep CRM records accurate and pipeline data meaningful. Lead structured onboarding for new trade partners and uphold King Trade program standards across the portfolio.
Who You Are
You will likely come from a senior trade sales, BDM, or account management role within furniture, interiors, architecture and design, or a related premium industry. Existing relationships within the Gold Coast and Northern Rivers A+D and development community will be a significant advantage.
You are a commercially sharp trade professional who knows the Gold Coast and Northern Rivers market — and you are ready for a role that holds you to a high standard and rewards you for it.
- Proven experience in senior trade sales or business development, ideally within furniture, interiors, or the A+D industry
- Demonstrated ability to manage and grow a defined customer portfolio with full commercial accountability
- Strong commercial judgement — you prioritise partners, time, and opportunities with discipline
- Data-literate and confident using CRM, PowerBI, and reporting tools to manage performance
- Able to coach, influence, and hold internal teams accountable in a collaborative and constructive manner
- Strong communication, negotiation, and presentation skills
- Comfortable operating in complexity and ambiguity while maintaining structure and discipline
- Based on the Gold Coast with a valid driver's licence — this role requires regular travel across the Gold Coast and Northern Rivers region
