Account Management Support Executive

Own the commercial relationship and the business results of a portfolio of adidas retail partners in Mexico — franchise operators of mono-brand stores — from buy commitment and order conversion, through sell-in, credit and inventory health, to sell-out, store productivity and network expansion.

The Sales Manager is the partner's single point of contact and the account lead inside the company, coordinating the internal teams — planning and buying, customer service, finance and credit, store development, retail operations and marketing — to deliver the sell-in, sell-out and profitability targets of the portfolio, while protecting brand standards and consumer experience in every store.

Own inventory productivity across the partner network: coverage, ageing, markdown and clearance decisions, rebalancing between stores and clean season transitions.

Build the business case and P&L view behind every commercial decision — openings, relocations, trade-terms adjustments, incentives — and present recommendations and portfolio insight to senior management.
