Sales and Engineering Manager

Apply directThis person would be our Sales/Technical resource with the OEM customers in Japan – not selling in Japan, but working with Japanese OEM’s and liaising with our Commercial teams in North America and Europe. The individual would report to Dan Rudolfi, our Senior Director responsible for the Japanese OEM’s from the Commercial side. We would be payrolling the person through a Japanese company – JP Tech – and locate the person in JP Tech’s office in Shin Yokohama. But, let’s talk about other questions you’d have.
- The position you want to hire - is he the first employee for Auria in Japan?Yes, but we may not hire him/her as an Auria employee – we are working on hiring them through Nezar Akeel’s company (JP Tech) so we do not have to set up an entity.
- Does Auria have an office in Shin-Yokohama?No, but Nezar does.
- What is your budget for salary for this position?We were looking to bring on an IAC resource at one point; his annual salary was approximately 800,000 JPY.
We have talked in the past when I was at IAC – having gotten your contact information from Rick Van Heukelom. I have since taken over global HR responsibilities at the JV formed between IAC and a Chinese company, Shenda. We have the need for an Engineering Sales resource in Japan – in the Shin Yokohoma area, who would be our main interface in Japan for Engineering Sales with Honda and Nissan. I’d like to speak with you at your earliest convenience about such a search – possibly a contracted resource at first if that is something you can help us with. Let me know your availability to talk if you think you can help us out.
