Due to growth in the data centre segment we are looking for a Business Development Manager to prospect, penetrate, and convert new data centre customers, while still maintaining selective account ownership through the full project lifecycle.

• Prepare proposals, participate in tenders, and negotiate contracts to secure new projects and service agreements.
• Work closely with the Segment Lead, Key Account Manager, and relevant cross-functional teams to deliver integrated solutions and ensure customer satisfaction.
• Provide insights and recommendations to support segment strategy and align with APAC/global initiatives.
• Ensure adherence to Eaton policies, ethical standards, and Australian regulatory requirements.

• Minimum of 5 years of experience in business development or sales within the electrical OR data centre industry.
• Experience in electrical infrastructure (LV, MV, UPS, PQ) or adjacent enterprise/project-based environments.
• Exposure to data centres preferred, but strong enterprise infrastructure backgrounds (e.g. hospitals, large facilities) will be considered.
