About Gallagher
At Gallagher, our purpose is to protect what matters most—and we live that every day. From securing some of the world’s most high-risk environments to enabling smarter, more sustainable farming in over 160 countries, we combine innovation and care in everything we do.
With nearly 85 years of industry leadership and more than 1400 team members across 10 countries, we’re proud to call New Zealand home. We are committed to continuous improvement, future-focused thinking, and a workplace culture that supports both professional excellence and personal wellbeing.
The Opportunity
At Gallagher, we’re passionate about transforming livestock management through cutting-edge technology. As we continue to expand the reach of our eShepherd™ virtual fencing solution, we’re looking for expressions of interest from capable and motivated individuals who can provide on-farm technical support and help farmers get the most out of our products.
This is a flexible, field-based role ideal for someone who enjoys working hands-on with technology in rural environments and is confident troubleshooting firmware and electronics issues. If you also have a knack for building relationships and identifying customer needs, there’s potential for this to evolve into a full-time technical sales role.
What You’ll be Doing
- Providing on-farm technical support for eShepherd™ customers across New Zealand & Australia depending on customer needs
- Troubleshooting and resolving firmware, hardware, and connectivity issues
- Supporting product installations, updates, and training
- Acting as a trusted technical advisor to farmers and rural contractors
- Identifying opportunities for product adoption and supporting the sales team
What we're looking for:
- Practical experience with electronics, firmware, or agri-tech systems
- Strong problem-solving skills and a proactive, customer-first mindset
- Ability to travel regularly and work independently in rural settings
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
- Bonus: Experience in technical sales or rural customer engagement
This opportunity is ideal for individuals looking to transition from full-time work and engage with customers and field challenges. It also suits those with sales abilities, technical skills, and a desire for variety in their work and location.
Why Gallagher?
- Be part of a purpose-driven company making a real difference in agriculture
- Work with a supportive, innovative, and passionate team
- Flexible working arrangements and the potential for long-term growth
- Opportunity to transition into a permanent role based on skillset and business needs
If you’re excited about the future of farming and want to be part of a team that’s shaping it, we’d love to hear from you.
