About the role

Spanish food company, specializing in the production and marketing of cured meat products, seeks a Commercial Management Assistant to lead the development of its distribution channels and contribute to the company's commercial strategy.

The position will work closely with Commercial Management, combining the management of major accounts with business analysis, commercial planning, and coordination with internal departments. We are looking for a reflective and strategic profile, capable of making sustainable commercial decisions, protecting profitability, and building long-term relationships with clients.

Given the perishable nature of the food products, it will be essential to understand the relationship between demand, production, availability, turnover, and point-of-sale execution.

What you'll do

  • Lead the commercial management of major chains, purchasing centers, and strategic national clients, while maintaining a comprehensive view of the traditional channel.
  • Negotiate prices, volumes, promotions, assortments, and commercial terms, while protecting the company's profitability.
  • Analyze sales by client, product, geographic area, and channel to identify deviations and growth opportunities.
  • Design commercial plans and agreements that strengthen brand positioning at points of sale.
  • Coordinate with Production and Operations to forecast demand, considering production capacity, product availability, shelf life, and turnover.
  • Coordinate the commercial team and make regular visits to clients and points of sale across different regions of Spain.

What we're looking for

Required Profile

  • Between 8 and 10 years of experience in commercial positions within food companies, perishable products, or consumer goods.
  • Experience negotiating with major retail chains, purchasing centers, or national accounts.
  • Knowledge of the retail channel, traditional trade, and in-store product management.
  • Ability to manage significant accounts and business volumes, with responsibility for pricing, margins, and profitability.
  • Strategic vision and the ability to translate commercial analysis into decisions and action plans.
  • University degree related to business, marketing, economics, or commerce.
  • English is valued, and willingness to travel regularly within Spain.

How you'll work

Location

The position will be based in Logroño and will require regular presence at the head office. Candidates residing in Pamplona, Burgos, Zaragoza, or nearby areas will also be considered, provided they are available to travel to Logroño several times a week.

Key competencies

  • Strategic thinking and analytical skills.
  • Negotiation skills and ability to handle pressure.
  • Autonomy, organization, and responsibility.
  • Commercial judgment, professional ethics, and a focus on profitability.
