Careers at Food Export

Business Development Coordinator

Posting Date: 2/18/2026

Organization: Food Export - Northeast

Location: Philadelphia, PA (Hybrid)

Help businesses grow beyond borders.

At Food Export, we help U.S. food and agricultural companies expand into global markets. As a Business Development Coordinator, you’ll play a key role in making that happen. This is a relationship-driven, consultative sales role. You’ll connect with companies, learn about their goals, and guide them toward programs and opportunities that support their growth.

What You’ll Do:

• Proactively identify and connect with companies that can benefit from Food Export programs.
• Build relationships with new and existing participants and serve as their trusted point of contact.
• Use a consultative sales approach to understand business needs and recommend solutions.
• Help companies develop export plans and connect them with the right programs and resources.
• Maintain and manage relationships through CRM tools and regular follow-up.
• Represent Food Export at industry events, trade shows, and networking opportunities.
• Partner with internal teams to ensure companies receive the support they need.
• Track outreach, engagement, and participation to support program growth.

What You Bring:

• Experience in sales, business development, account management, client success, recruiting, or outreach.
• Strong communication skills and confidence connecting with new people.
• Relationship-focused mindset with the ability to build trust quickly.
• Self-motivated, organized, and comfortable managing multiple priorities.
• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent professional experience.

Bonus if you have experience in food or agriculture, international business, nonprofit programs, CRM systems, or consultative sales environments.

Why This Role is Different

This isn’t transactional sales. You won’t be selling a product, you’ll be helping businesses access resources that can transform their growth. You’ll gain:

• Meaningful relationship-building experience
• Exposure to international markets and global trade
• Opportunities to attend industry events and represent the organization
• A collaborative, mission-driven team environment
