Our mission is to provide intelligent tools to feed the world. We do this by delivering actionable tree and fruit insights to growers across 30 countries, powered by imagery and advanced computer vision.
To date, we've analysed over 400 million trees from the sky, and more than 450 million fruit up close, helping farmers make critical operational and agricultural decisions that maximise yield and efficiency. Our global team of 60+ professionals is headquartered in Cape Town, with commercial offices in the USA, Australia, Portugal, Spain, and South America.
The Opportunity
We’re looking for a Business Development Manager to lead and scale our business across Italy. This role requires someone with Go-To-Market expertise, as well as top-tier enterprise sales skills. We're seeking someone who thrives on face-to-face client execution and is eager to roll up their sleeves to close complex, high-value B2B deals. You will work closely with global leadership, product, and operations teams to ensure strong alignment between market needs and product delivery.
The role can be based in one of two regional clusters: North, in or near Trentino-Alto Adige or Emilia-Romagna, the country’s principal apple-growing regions; or South, in or near Puglia, Calabria or Apulia, home to Italy’s major table grape and citrus production. A central location such as Bologna, which offers strong connectivity to both clusters, would also be considered. Commercial responsibility extends across the relevant cluster, and the role requires regular travel across the assigned regions to cover growers, co-ops and packing operations. Candidates should expect to spend a significant share of their working time on the road.
You’ll work closely with growers,
offering Aerobotics’ innovative solutions that enhance efficiency and productivity. This is more than a sales role; it’s an opportunity to be at the forefront of AgTech innovation, helping shape the future of farming.
What makes this role unique:
Develop a customer strategy to optimize growth for the entire region
Sell & deliver products to a wide range of horticultural customers
Work with cutting-edge technology in agriculture
Direct impact on the future of precision farming
What You'll Do

Collaborate with internal teams in Europe, Latam and South Africa to ensure seamless service delivery
Partner with the Product team to uncover new customer needs & inform product development
Stay ahead of industry trends and competitor activities
Regular travel within the region to meet customers, and at times, attend conferences as and where necessary. xysqume
