Mars Australia

 

Launch Your Career with a Global FMCG Leader

If you love people, variety, and seeing the results of your effort every day, this could be your next big move. Even if you have never pictured yourself in sales, this role might surprise you.

At Mars, our Field Sales Representatives are the link between our brands and the stores where shoppers see them every day. You will work face to face with retailers, solve real world problems, and help some of Australia’s most loved brands show up at their best.

Field Sales is the launchpad to many roles in our business across Sales, Marketing and more. 

What You’ll Do

As a Field Sales Representative, you are the face of Mars in your local supermarkets and retailers.

You will be responsible for a group of stores in your territory, visiting them regularly to make sure our products are available, visible, and set up for success.

This role is not about cold calling or sitting behind a desk. It is about building relationships, spotting opportunities, and turning plans into action in store.

On a typical day, you will:

• Visit stores in your territory to check stock levels, shelf space, displays, and promotions

• Work directly with store managers and teams to agree on actions, such as improving shelf layouts, increasing stock, or setting up promotional displays

• Ensure our brands are easy to find and look great on shelf so shoppers cannot miss them

• Use sales data and insights to understand what is selling well and what is not, then take action to fix issues or unlock growth

• Plan and manage your own schedule and territory, deciding where to focus your time for the biggest impact

• Share insights with your wider team, celebrating wins and learning from challenges together

No two days are the same. You will be on the road within your local area for day travel only, meeting people, solving problems, and seeing the direct impact of your work in store.

Why You’ll Love This Role

Growth and Progression
Field Sales is one of the best ways to learn how a large FMCG business really works, from customers and consumers to supply, marketing, and finance. You will build strong commercial foundations and leadership skills that can open doors across Mars locally and globally.

Variety and Challenge
Fast paced and hands on. You will think on your feet, adapt quickly, and keep learning as no two stores or days are the same.

Connection and Belonging
You will work with supportive teammates and build genuine relationships with retailers. We work hard, have fun, and celebrate wins together.

Purpose and Impact
At Mars, we care deeply about the impact we have on the world, from sustainability and responsible sourcing to supporting communities and improving life for people and pets.

Who We’re Looking For

You do not need previous sales experience to succeed here.

We are looking for people who bring:

• Curiosity, drive, and a genuine love of connecting with people

• Strong organisation and the ability to manage your own time

• A willingness to learn, ask questions, and try new approaches

• Comfort being on the road most days, working independently but never alone

You will also need:

• A current driver’s licence

• Australian or New Zealand citizenship or permanent residency at the time of application
