Business Development Manager – Contract Manufacturing
Location: Condell Park, Sydney
Full-Time | Global Beverage Manufacturing Business
Are you a resilient, supply chain-savvy professional who thrives on solving problems and building strong customer partnerships? Do you have a “can-do” attitude and a desire to make a real impact?
We’re part of a global beverage manufacturing organisation — and we’re looking for a Business Development Manager – Contract Manufacturing to join our high-performing Australian team. This is an exciting opportunity to take ownership of key customer partnerships and drive operational success in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.
About the Role:
This isn’t a traditional new business sales role. Instead, you’ll focus on growing and managing existing co-manufacturing relationships within the beverage category. Your focus will be on operational execution, forecasting and supply planning coordination, and delivering an exceptional customer experience.
You’ll act as the link between our partners and our internal teams — ensuring forecasts are met, production runs smoothly, and any issues are swiftly resolved. You'll thrive in a role that requires agility, clear communication, and a strong grasp of supply chain dynamics.
Key Responsibilities:
Be the day-to-day contact for contract manufacturing partners
Lead regular customer reviews and supply planning meetings
Translate customer forecasts into production and logistics plans
Monitor performance and troubleshoot supply or service challenges
Support pricing, contracts, and SLAs with commercial oversight
Champion customer needs across planning, operations, and logistics
Drive continuous improvement across the contract manufacturing value chain
About You:
You’re naturally curious, highly collaborative, and able to keep things moving — even in complexity. You’re confident engaging with stakeholders across planning, production, and logistics, and you know how to deliver value through operational excellence.
What you'll bring:
3+ years in account management, supply chain, or customer operations (FMCG/manufacturing ideal)
Strong grasp of production planning, logistics, and customer service
Great stakeholder and communication skills (written & verbal)
Analytical mindset with commercial acumen
Experience with ERP/SAP/S&OP systems and Excel
A proactive, flexible approach — with the ability to manage competing priorities
Willingness to travel and work flexibly to align with production needs
Why Join Us?
Be part of a global leader in the beverage industry
Contribute to a growing contract manufacturing division
Collaborate with supportive, cross-functional teams
See your impact in improved performance and customer satisfaction
Opportunities to grow your career within a global organisation
Your Next Step:
If you’re looking to join a place where you can see the difference you make every day, that gives you a true sense of job satisfaction and that challenges your technical skills and knowledge so that you can apply what you know whilst learning more all the time, get in touch. We look forward to hearing from you.
Prior to any offer of employment, you will be required to undergo a pre-employment health assessment relevant to the inherent requirements of the position.
