Careers at Bellroy
Director, Export Sales

IN A NUTSHELL

Bellroy is a global business (founded in Melbourne, Australia) with a bold growth plan. Since we sold our first wallet in 2011, we’ve diversified into tech products, bags and accessories; we’re now a team of 100 staff, selling in more than 1000 doorways and directly to consumers in 150 countries globally.

We’ve been developing our presence in Southeast Asia and East Asia for more than 10 years and currently sell through over 250 doorways in the region (and counting). We also partner with large distributors in the region in countries such as Singapore, Japan and Taiwan. We’re looking for a Sales Director to help nurture our current distributors, explore new opportunities and expand our reach during our next growth phase.

Bring us your strategic sales mind, knowledge of the region and desire for growth. In return, we’ll offer a world-class team to work alongside, an award-winning culture to be a part of and the tools you need to get sh*t done.

YOU COULD BE THE ONE IF YOU…

  • Have 10+ years of sales or business development experience working for lifestyle brands, ideally in categories such as accessories, footwear or cosmetics
  • Have a deep understanding of global retail markets, specialising in the Asia region including Japan, Taiwan, South Korea and Singapore
  • Are experienced with selling products through international distributors and into key retailers across Asia
  • Have some design geek to go with your sales charm. Often the brilliance of our products needs some explanation, which is fine because you're comfortable doing so in a compelling, well-informed and genuine manner
  • Are aware of cultural nuances and can adjust your communication style to build relationships within the region
  • Want to deliver exceptional results for a young brand doing awesome things. At Bellroy, we focus on long-term quality relationships with the right businesses (and people), to ensure our common goals are met.

A COUPLE MONTHS IN THIS ROLE MIGHT LOOK LIKE…

  • Negotiating commercial terms and pricing with a potential new distributor partner in South Korea, working closely with senior management (CFO, CBO, VP, Global Wholesale) on the launch assortment, demand plan and expected contribution margins of the business prior to signing the distribution agreement
  • Leading a conference call with our distributor in Japan discussing our sell through data at key accounts and reviewing an opportunity for an exciting new brand collaboration with a retailer in Tokyo
  • Connecting with our distributor in Taiwan to discuss a pop-up shop opportunity inside a major department store in Taipei and then following up with our Retail Marketing Director to setup a project timeline to execute our Visual Merchandising strategy
  • Reviewing our distributor’s monthly sales reports to check top-selling styles and on-hand inventory, making note of key data points that would require further conversations with our demand planning team
  • Visiting South Korea and walking the floors of key retailers with our distributor, noting competitors, Bellroy brand execution and location of our displays on the floor, in order to prepare your market report for key stakeholders at Bellroy
  • Opening up a new major retailer in Japan, working closely with our distribution partner on a launch assortment and co-op marketing plan
  • Joining weekly calls with the VP of Global Wholesale to review YTD sales in your territory, discussing strategies and opportunities for growth.

WHY WORK FOR BELLROY?

Bellroy 공간

'Bellroy'의 오피스는 벨스 비치 (Bells Beach)와 피츠로이 (Fitzroy), 두 곳에 위치하고 있습니다. 벨스 비치는 평온하고, 아웃도어 활동을 즐기기 좋은 반면, 피츠로이에는 창의적이며 도시적인 스타일이 묻어 있습니다. 도시와 바다가 불러오는 영감과 어드벤처로 완벽한 밸런스를 이루고 있습니다.

벨스 비치 (Bells Beach)

저희 HQ 사무실은 호주에서 최고의 서핑 해안 지대 중 하나로 알려진 바다를 내려다보는 거대한 사암 절벽 뒤에 위치하고 있습니다. 저희 제품 디자이너들이 아이디어를 실험하고, 세일즈 팀이 미팅을 진행하고 커피를 즐기는 곳이기도 하죠. 멜버른의 피츠로이 지역에 비해 훨씬 조용하기에 집중하기에 좋은 환경이기도 합니다. 사무실 바로 옆에 카페가 있어 언제든 허기진 배를 채울 수 있으며, 오전 11시 서핑 시간은 몸과 마음을 리프레시하기에 완벽하죠.

Collingwood

Our Collingwood space is immersed in the middle of Melbourne’s creative hub. It’s where our Creative, Marketing, Engineering and Operations teams develop campaigns and ensure each Bellroy is sent safely across the world. Walk out the door and you’ll find streets bursting with energy (and the best ramen joint this side of Tokyo).
