  1. How we are going to achieve the sales target, and
  2. What is the role of our Export Sales Manager, what does he/she do and, in short, what does he/she do.

The first of these will be discussed below.

In other words, this is the person who is responsible for identifying opportunities in international markets, through prospecting and presenting the products or services of the company he or she represents, and then negotiating and materialising sales, processing orders and resolving incidents, all with the primary objective of increasing sales in the foreign market.

In addition, our Export Sales Manager is a person who has to integrate into the operating structure and culture of a company that is not his or her own, so he or she will have to have an adequate set of skills to carry out the mission entrusted to him or her, including flexibility and empathy, resilience, orientation towards results and the achievement of objectives, autonomy, as well as planning and organisational skills, among others.
