Time to get training!

We are a well-resourced challenger brand about to embark on an all-out assault in this region for telecommunications services (broadband + calling + mobile).

Right now, we urgently need B2B sales specialists that have:
Demonstrated history of over achieving with B2B sales
Charisma and charm
Energy and drive
Honesty and integrity

These people will be responsible for enacting our SME sales plans and will be fully supported by the CEO, Marketing Manager and wider team.

These positions will be very well remunerated by salary and a very attractive uncapped commission scheme that seriously rewards performers!

There is also a real opportunity for one of these people to grow into the Sales Managers role if they demonstrate leadership.

Apply if you know this is for you!

Send a brief CV to jobs@airnet.co.nz  and we’ll be in touch to discuss.

The communications infrastructure is but one great aspect of the Park which also has stunning natural beauty and vistas of Te Mata Peak ranges and un-obstructed views down the Tukituki river valley.
Airnet Sales Manager Ben Deller says “The developers took a no compromise approach to the communications infrastructure for the park; opting for best of breed throughout. They knew access to ultra-fast broadband was going to be a key part of any prospective property owner’s decision to relocate to the rural development so they came to Airnet for a turn key solution”.

Airnet worked with the developers from the earliest stages, providing consultancy, design and final implementation of the fibre optic network design to best deliver Airnet’s range of broadband and calling services.

Included in the 1st year roll out plan were areas in Napier that would complement their existing network, such as
• Napier airport area
• Pandora
• Hospital Hill
• Taradale Road industrial area

The existing Chorus fibre network encompasses most of the central business district in both Hastings and Napier.

Airnet is a retail service provider of ultra-fast broadband and phone lines and delivers these services via both the Chorus Fibre network and the UnisonFibre network in addition to Airnet’s own networks.

Today’s announcement is an exciting development for the Crown Fibre UFB project and the resulting network access will complement Airnet’s existing offerings for both businesses and home users.

Chorus are inviting any questions regarding the UFB rollout to contactus@chorus.co.nz or you can contact Airnet directly via info@airnet.co.nz

1. Fibre is an access medium that offers far greater bandwidth and speed than copper - it is the equivalent of your copper line on steroids! The way we will access content and applications is changing and there is a growing need for the expanded capability that fibre offers. For businesses, there is an increasing dependency on cloud-based software and storage services, with the days of hard drives and servers looking increasingly threatened. At home we are streaming video, streaming audio and accessing IP TV.

2. The rate businesses move to fibre will be a function of needs and the expense. Fibre access is still relatively expensive, and while Airnet can connect customers to either Chorus or UnisonFibre now, the network access price changes that will come when the Crown Fibre project rolls out in Hawke's Bay may be 6 months, a year or even 2 years away.

3. Paying the commercial premium that comes with fibre is definitely justified if you:

• Are a larger organisation with a large number of users, and/or
• Are Increasingly dependent on cloud based-services and applications, and/or
• Support a large number of remote users on VPNs or host services (websites, databases, etc), and/or
• Need to upload large amounts of data from your office to another

4. If you are going to a switch to fibre you need to consider what kind of service will best fit. Do you need a flat rate data plan, that caps your monthly expenditure, or is speed more important? Simply choosing a service based on price could be a very costly mistake - in fact, some entry level fibre plans will actually deliver slower download speeds than your existing copper connection, but cost significantly more. Airnet will work with you and help determine the very best package to suit your particular needs.

Solutions, not technology

Airnet has the ability to connect our customers to numerous network technologies, and for this reason our sales ethos is driven by our customer's needs. We offer high-speed internet access through wireless, copper and fibre networks. We maintain commercial relationships with both UnisonFibre and Chorus which means that we can be totally impartial and the network technology (or access medium) we put you on is simply a function of your location, speed/usage requirements and your budget.

Leading the way with fibre

As we've already stated, fibre is fantastic - and Airnet has been leading the way, connecting organisations such as the Hawke's Bay District Health Board, Hastings Boys High School and Taradale High School to high speed, high capacity fibre in recent months.
