This is a growth opportunity for an individual who also demonstrates an aptitude for PR counseling and stellar ideas.

A four-year degree in journalism, public relations or a related field gets you in the door. A minimum of two years experience is preferred; an additional 4 years experience may be substituted in lieu of degree.

Employer: FMC Corporation

This position will put you on the ground floor of a major initiative: at FMC Professional Solutions (FPS) we are expanding and reorganizing our field operations in support of long-term growth strategies. As a Market Specialist, you will combine your technical turf and ornamental savvy with solid business acumen to provide customer service and create demand among end users in the turf and ornamental industries in a mult-state territory.

In our entrepreneurial culture you will enjoy a good deal of autonomy; at the same time you will have strong support and resources from a close-knit team committed to common goals.

To be a good fit for this opportunity you will have at least two years of related sales experience, and preferably five or more years, as well as working knowledge of primary products and market opportunities and an understanding of key competitive products. You also will need a demonstrated ability to effectively implement business objectives for the territory, and the ability to present effective alternative solutions to problems. In addition you'll need strong communication and interpersonal skills, including the ability to develop and deliver presentations to groups and individuals.

Your success in this role could set you up to pursue multiple career paths in FMC, an S&P 500, diversified chemical company serving agricultural, industrial and consumer markets globally for more than a century. As a global leader utilizing advanced technologies and customer-focused research and development, FMC provides innovative and cost-effective solutions to food, agriculture, pharmaceutical, specialty, and related industries.
