Export Executive

Export Executive – Seafood | International Sales

A1 Recruitment is partnering with an established Australian business seeking an experienced and commercially driven Export Executive to lead international sales and business development across existing and emerging markets.

Reporting directly to the CEO, this is an opportunity to take ownership of international customer relationships, develop new markets and play a key role in the company's continued growth.

Seafood experience is highly regarded but not essential. We're equally interested in successful export professionals from the meat, protein, FMCG and broader food industries.

The Opportunity

• International Markets – Develop new export markets and expand existing customer relationships.
• Business Development – Identify opportunities, establish distribution channels and drive profitable sales growth.
• Key Accounts – Manage international distributors, wholesalers, retailers and foodservice customers.
• Commercial Management – Lead pricing negotiations, forecasting and margin management.
• Supply Chain – Work closely with production and logistics to ensure reliable export delivery.
• International Travel – Build relationships and explore new commercial opportunities overseas.
• Direct CEO Engagement – Play an influential role in executing international growth strategies.

What We're Looking For

• Proven experience in export sales, international trading or business development.
• Background in seafood, meat, protein, FMCG, agribusiness or related industries.
• Established international customer or distributor networks.
• Demonstrated success developing new markets and generating profitable revenue.
• Strong commercial acumen, negotiation skills and understanding of export logistics.
• Ability to work autonomously and willingness to travel internationally.

Why Consider This Opportunity?

This is more than an account management role. You'll have the opportunity to leverage your international networks, influence commercial strategy and make a genuine impact on the growth of an established Australian business.

You don't need to come from seafood. If you have a strong export background, established international relationships and a track record of delivering results, we'd love to hear from you.
