We are looking for an International Business Development & Project Coordinator to join our growing team in Madrid.

The Role

This is a hands-on role combining international business development, commercial activities, market analysis and client project coordination.

Working directly with HSM's Managing Director, you will support international brands developing their business in Spain: identifying opportunities and potential partners, supporting relationships with retailers and distributors, coordinating client projects and making sure actions move forward.

What will you do?

- Identify new business opportunities, retailers, distributors and potential partners in Spain.
- Research and contact relevant buyers, distributors and decision-makers.
- Manage commercial follow-ups and help generate new business opportunities.
- Prepare and participate in client, retailer, distributor and partner meetings.

- Work with external partners and service providers when required.
- Keep CRM and project information organised and up to date.
- Support HSM's own business development activities.

The person we're looking for

You are someone who enjoys making things happen!

You are comfortable researching a market, contacting a potential business partner, preparing a client meeting and making sure the agreed actions actually happen afterwards.

You don't need to know everything from day one, but you should be curious, commercially minded, organised and comfortable working in a fast-moving entrepreneurial environment.

We value initiative, ownership and common sense as much as previous experience.

We are looking for someone who doesn't simply wait for the next task, but is able to understand an objective, organise the work and move it forward.

What are we looking for?

- 1+ years of professional experience in international business, business development, FMCG, retail, consulting, sales or a related area.
- Degree in Business, International Business, Marketing, Economics or similar.
- Fluent Spanish and professional English.




- Strong commercial mindset and communication skills.
- Good analytical and research capabilities.
- Strong organisational and follow-up skills.
- Confidence contacting companies and decision-makers.
- Comfortable managing different projects and priorities.
- Good PowerPoint / Google Slides and Excel / Google Sheets skills.
- Proactive, autonomous and willing to take responsibility.

Experience in FMCG, retail, internationalisation, market entry or the Spanish market will be highly valued.

What we offer

- Part-time position – 30 hours/week.
- Versátil hybrid working model in Madrid.
- Direct involvement in international market-entry and business development projects.
- Exposure to international brands, retailers, distributors and senior decision-makers.
- Close collaboration with HSM's Managing Director.
- A role combining international business, commercial development and consulting.
- Responsibility and autonomy from an early stage.
- Opportunity to grow professionally as HSM continues to develop.
- Occasional travel and face-to-face meetings depending on client projects.

Working model

We work in a versátil hybrid model, combining remote work with face-to-face collaboration depending on project and client needs.

The position is Madrid-based, as some client meetings, commercial activities and visits will require in-person availability.

Job Type: Part-time

Expected hours: No more than 30.0 per week

Work Location: Hybrid remote in Madrid, Madrid provincia (Madrid)
