At Laminex New Zealand, we’ve been shaping Kiwi homes and workplaces for decades. We’re proud of what we’ve built, but we’re not here to stand still. We’re focused on growth above market, launching new products into new segments, and driving the next evolution of sales capability. That’s where you come in.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Owning the Sales & Segment Strategy – Get clear on where we play and how we win, with a focus on high-value products and strategic growth.
  • Levelling Up Sales Capability – Coach and develop a team of trusted advisors, ensuring they have the tools, insights, and mindset to succeed.
  • Turning Data into Action – Use market insights, sales analytics, and tools like Power BI to inform decision-making and track success.
  • Driving New Product Success – Commercialise new offerings and find fresh opportunities to expand our reach.
  • Optimising Sales Operations – Work closely with Sales Ops to streamline the customer experience and keep things running smoothly.
  • Shaping a Winning Culture – Build a team that’s bold, authentic, and future-focused, where we challenge each other, celebrate wins, and enjoy the ride.


What We’re Looking For:

  • A commercially sharp, future-focused leader who knows how to turn strategy into results.
  • A team builder and coach who brings out the best in people.
  • Someone who’s fluent in data and understands how to use insights to drive sales performance.
  • A leader who can cut through the noise, bring people together, and make things happen.
  • Someone who thrives in fast-paced, ever-evolving environments—because the world isn’t slowing down, and neither are we.


Why Join Us?
