Sales Geophysicist

The analysis of gravity and magnetic data in combination with seismic data provides a more complete exploration strategy as interpretational uncertainties are reduced through the analysis of additional rock properties. The company has been able to demonstrate that significant geological information can be gleaned from gravity and magnetic data in both frontier and mature exploration areas. As such, the requirement for their services continues to grow.

• In this role, your primary responsibility will be to represent the Company in the industry by selling and promoting their integrated interpretation software, gravity and magnetic data, and their acquisition and processing consulting services.
• As such, this role is ideal for someone with a geophysical background and experience in marketing or selling technical solutions or data. Alternatively, it would suit someone with the right technical background and a desire to move into sales. The Company realise that you may not have all the technical skills required and are committed to providing full training of all their solutions. Also, you will work along side senior sales personnel and will be supported and guided in your role.
• Working alongside an experienced sales team, the Company is committed to providing support and mentoring where needed and you will be trained in all relevant technologies, work practices and Company sales methodologies.
