Job description

Our client is a family-owned US food manufacturer. They are now building their own commercial team in Mexico. These are the first field sales positions in the country: two in Mexico City, one in

Monterrey.

THE ROLE

You will own your territory end to end — the accounts, the distributors

and the number.

• Open and grow accounts with restaurant chains, independent operators, pizzerias and Italian concepts in your plaza
• Build and manage the distributor network that carries the product, including forecast and sell-through by distributor
• Run product demonstrations and side-by-side cook-offs directly with chefs, kitchen managers and owners — this is where the sale is won
• Carry and deliver a revenue growth target for your territory
• Report directly into the US organization, working day to day in English

REQUIREMENTS

• Minimum 3 years selling into the foodservice channel — restaurants, chains, hotels, pizzerias or institutional operators — whether from a manufacturer, a distributor or a supplier. This is indispensable; applications without demonstrable foodservice experience will not move forward.
• 3–6 years total in B2B sales
• Working proficiency in spoken and written English (indispensable: your manager and your team are based in the United States)
• Valid US visa (indispensable: the role includes travel to the company's facility in California)
• Valid driver's license and own vehicle
• Comfort in the field and in kitchens, this is not a desk role
• A culinary or gastronomy background is a strong advantage

• Base salary of USD $36,000 per year (approx. MXN $51,500 per month),
• Car allowance of USD $675 per month (approx. MXN $11,600)
• Christmas bonus of one full month
• Premium medical package, fully covered by the company
• A genuine ground-floor position: you would be part of the first commercial team the company has had in Mexico, with direct visibility to US leadership
