Who We Are
RK Wholesale Wheels & Tyres has grown into a trusted and experienced supplier of tyres and wheels across multiple sectors. Based in Thomastown, we cater to a wide range of applications including passenger vehicles, 4WDs, trucks, agricultural machinery, industrial equipment, and the off-the-road (OTR) sector Australia-wide.
With a strong reputation for quality products, reliable service, and long-term customer relationships, we continue to support customers throughout Victoria and across Australia with industry expertise and dependable supply solutions.
The Opportunity
As our business continues to grow, we are seeking an ambitious and relationship-driven Business Development Manager to expand our existing customer base while identifying and securing new business opportunities throughout Metropolitan Melbourne and regional Victoria.
Based at our Thomastown office, this is a hands-on field sales role for someone who enjoys getting out on the road, meeting customers face-to-face, and building genuine business relationships. You’ll work closely with management and the wider team to support existing customers, uncover new opportunities, and provide valuable feedback from the market.
A key part of this role is helping our customers get the most from our products while continuing to grow sales across your territory. We’re looking for someone who can build trust, understand customer needs, and develop long-term relationships that lead to sustainable business growth.
Experience within the tyre industry would be highly regarded; however, it is not essential. We are equally interested in speaking with candidates who have proven success in sales, account management, or business development, along with the drive, right attitude, and people skills to succeed.
