Senior Sales Executive - International Markets (High-End Furniture)

Role Overview
The Senior Sales Executive is a hands-on international seller. The role hunts, develops and closes business across our export markets — building relationships with distributors, dealers, architects & designers (A&D), and project/contract partners.
You will own a live pipeline and carry a revenue target, working under the Commercial Director's direction and coordinating with Commercial Planning so that the demand you create converts into reliable, profitable orders.
This is a doer's role, not a management one. It is measured first and foremost on growing revenue — with the discipline to protect margin, pricing and brand positioning while doing so.
A strong performer can grow into a Sales & Market Development Manager role as the international business scales.
Key Responsibilities
1. Business Development & Revenue
– Actively identify, approach and win new distributors, dealers and project clients across international markets.
– Own and convert a structured pipeline; carry and deliver a personal revenue target.
2. Distributor, Dealer & Channel Development
– Develop and grow relationships with distributors and dealers; support their sell-through, not just the first order.
– Build relationships with architects, interior designers, developers and contract partners; pursue and close project opportunities.
3. Working with Our International Branches
– Act as HQ's commercial interface to District Eight Italia (EMEA) and District Eight Inc. (North America): support their sell-in and sell-through, coordinate demand, stock and delivery, and help them meet their market targets.
– Develop new distributors and markets via these branches, respecting each branch's territory to avoid channel conflict.
4. Deal Execution & Commercial Discipline
– Prepare proposals and quotations and follow through to closing.
– Work within the company's commercial rules: territory, pricing discipline (discounts above 10% require written approval), payment terms (30% deposit / 70% before shipping), and trademark / customer-transparency protections.
– Keep CRM and reporting accurate and current — pipeline, forecast and account activity.
5. Coordination & Fulfilment
– Feed demand signals to Commercial Planning for stock, lead-time and allocation; coordinate with Logistics on order readiness so clients get reliable delivery.
6. Market Presence & Insight
– Represent the brands at international and regional tradeshows and market visits; deliver basic product training to partners.
– Gather market and competitor insight and feed it back to the Commercial Director and HQ.
– Background or strong

Yêu cầu công việc

– Background or strong interest in furniture, interior, architecture, design or premium/luxury products — able to sell in a design-oriented context and engage clients as a trusted advisor, not just a vendor.
– Exposure to distributor or dealer channels, and to OBM / ODM / OEM commercial models.
– Additional languages are an advantage — European languages (given the Italia / Europe branch) and, for wider reach, languages relevant to the Middle East or APAC.
– Strong market insight and cross-cultural adaptability — able to read different markets, adjust approach, and feed useful intelligence back to HQ and the branches.
– 4–6 years in international sales or business development with a clear track record of hitting targets.
– Strong hunting, negotiation, relationship-building and follow-through; disciplined with CRM and pipeline.
– Self-driven and comfortable in an early-stage, unstructured environment; willing to travel internationally.
– Seller-oriented and revenue-owning; hungry to build opportunities from zero.
– Taste-driven, not only target-driven; respects margin and brand while chasing growth.
