Industry: Oil & Gas / Energy Services
Employment Type: Full-time, indefinite
Location: Argentina (preferably near Neuquén / Patagonia region; flexible within Argentina)
Start Target: April 2026
Compensation: USD $84,000–$90,000 (flexible based on experience)
Travel: Up to ~50% of the time — the ideal candidate should be comfortable with frequent travel (primarily within Argentina, with occasional travel across South America).
Our client is a global energy services provider supporting leading national and international oil & gas operators. They manufacture and distribute specialized products and technologies that enable safe, efficient extraction of oil and gas. Their approach is long-term and service-driven: they don’t just sell—they support customers in the field and build strong, recurring relationships.
Activity in Argentina is increasing significantly, especially around Neuquén and unconventional operations (fracking). The company needs a technical + commercial professional on the ground to provide local coverage, support existing clients, and grow opportunities across Latin America.
This is a hands-on Technical Sales role responsible for developing and managing customer relationships in Argentina (primary focus) and across Latin America as needed. You’ll act as the key link between customers, distribution/manufacturing, and internal technical teams—owning both the commercial process and the post-sale support mindset that drives repeat business.
Key Responsibilities
Build and execute a strategic sales plan for Argentina / Latin America in partnership with the Sales Manager.
Conduct frequent customer visits and submit Customer Contact Reports within 3 days (attendees, discussion summary, action items, follow-ups).
Identify and re-engage dormant accounts (6+ months inactive) to regain business.
Prepare sales reporting (sales volume, pipeline, expansion opportunities, market insights).
Become deeply knowledgeable in products and applications through training; stay current on new products and competitive offerings.
Coordinate with Technical Services to troubleshoot issues and ensure timely resolutions to customer requests/complaints.
Manage quote requests (pricing, credit terms, delivery timelines) and enter accurate, detailed sales orders into internal systems.
Support collections efforts by following up with overdue customers and maintaining strong commercial communication.
Represent the company at relevant trade association meetings and deliver professional presentations (PPT, demos, public speaking).
Maintain customer/account data (contacts, hierarchy, addresses, phone numbers, key stakeholders).
Host customers (meals/events) while adhering to company policies and compliance standards.
Follow all safety standards, procedures, and professional conduct expectations.
Must-Have Requirements (Non-Negotiable)
10+ years of relevant oilfield industry experience (or an equivalent combination of education and experience).
Strong working knowledge of oilfield operations; must be able to hit the ground running (not a pure sales profile).
Experience with unconventional operations / fracking is strongly preferred and highly relevant for Argentina.
Familiarity with cased-hole oilfield operations and industry terminology.
Solid understanding of the Argentine market and customer landscape.
Strong communication and presentation skills (oral/written, executive-level).
Ability to travel with no domestic or international restrictions.
Based in Argentina (location flexible; preference for proximity to the Neuquén area).
Preferred Qualifications
Background from oilfield operators, service companies, or manufacturing (e.g., cased-hole/logging tools ecosystem).
Experience in customer-facing technical commercial roles supporting field operations.
Bachelor’s degree preferred.
Experience working with multinational clients operating in Argentina.
Languages
Bilingual: English + Spanish (oral and written)
