About the role
Halter is flipping the livestock world on its head. Our collars and software let farmers move and manage animals with a swipe of their phone. No bikes, no fences, no stress. We’re scaling fast across NZ, Aus, and the US, and the stakes keep getting higher.
Halter’s growth depends on more than brilliant technology, it depends on exceptional commercial leadership. As Head of Commercial Strategy, you’ll architect the engines that power our next stage of global expansion. This means pricing that accelerates adoption, packaging that sharpens our value proposition, partnerships that unlock growth, and frameworks that help us win markets before competitors even see them coming.
You’ll sit shoulder-to-shoulder with Halter’s leadership team, defining where we play and how we win, then making sure those decisions come alive in the field. This role starts as a high-impact individual contributor, but is explicitly designed to grow into a people-lead role, building and leading a world-class Commercial Strategy team as Halter scales.
This is a rare opportunity to shape one of the most transformative companies in agriculture, and leave your fingerprints on every major commercial decision we make.
