Northland Sales/Support role

Ready to make a real impact on animal health and farming in Northland? DairySmart is looking for a driven, Northland based practical and people-savvy sales person to join our agritech team and bring our world-first mastitis diagnostic technology to farmers across the region. About Us We’re an agritech startup revolutionising how dairy farmers detect and manage mastitis—one of the industry’s most costly diseases. Our diagnostic system enables fast, accurate, and on-farm identification of mastitis-causing pathogens, helping reduce antibiotic use and boost herd health. About the role You’ll be the face of DairySmart in Northland — meeting farmers, cold calling, generating leads, running product demos, and following up with interested farms. You’ll also build great working relationships with rural veterinary clinics, from reception staff and vet techs through to the clinical team. A good chunk of this role happens in the shed — running demos, testing samples, and talking shop with farmers while they work — so you’ll want to be at ease around cows and comfortable getting stuck in alongside milking. You’ll work independently with flexible hours (20 per week), ideally suiting someone with a dairy or veterinary background looking for part-time work with a big purpose.
