I previously worked for a trading company, but I became interested in sales at a manufacturer and decided to change jobs.
I was also attracted by the fact that the company handles not only its own products but also a wide range of commercial products, which would allow me to make use of my previous experience.
When I joined the company, I was glad to find that the sales team members were very cheerful and helped me settle into the workplace quickly.

I also handle administrative tasks such as responding to inquiries from customers and internal departments, so strong day-to-day task management is very important.

I feel especially rewarded when I acquire a new account.
Because I sometimes need to travel for work, it is important to organize my schedule efficiently.

Rather than focusing only on existing products, I would like to increase my achievements through new product development and further deepen my knowledge and experience.
