Careers at ZoeM International

Join the mission.

ZoeM isn’t a desk job. It’s a bet on India’s farmers, and on the people willing to fight for them in global markets.

We’re building India’s most credible agri-export operation — one container, one buyer relationship, one shipment at a time. No bureaucracy. No 47-person approval chains. Just outcomes.

What you get:

If you’ve ever wanted to see your work cross oceans — literally — this is that.

Mission in detail

A direct seat at the global table.

ZoeM International exists to prove that India’s farmers, formulators and artisans deserve a direct seat at the global table — not a place at the back of someone else’s supply chain.

We are building a vertically integrated export ecosystem where ancient Indian agriculture, Ayurveda, and craftsmanship meet modern systems: data-driven sourcing, full traceability from farm to lab report, and zero unnecessary middlemen.

But we’re not stopping at our own exports. We’re building the tools — lead generation engines, supplier databases, traceability systems, compliance trackers — that every Indian exporter needs and few can afford. If we build it right for ZoeM, we build it for the next thousand exporters behind us.

Why join us

Six reasons that matter.

No "leverage your potential," no "make an impact." Specific things that are actually true about this job.

01

Run your region like a P&L

You own the commercial relationship end to end — buyer discovery, qualification, negotiation, onboarding, retention. No matrixed reporting, no shared accounts. The pipeline, the forecast, and the wins are all yours.

02

An AI layer that does the research

In-house tooling scores importer prospects by region and HS code, parses APEDA / FIEO / DGFT bulletins into actionable lane signals, and surfaces market-intel digests every morning. The intelligence supports your decisions — the decisions stay yours.

03

Direct line to farmers and buyers, no layers in between

No bureaucracy between you and the people who matter — the farmer in Karnataka, the buyer in Hamburg. You’ll talk to both.

04

The market window is now

India’s agri-export infrastructure gap won’t stay open forever. The next 24 months decide who owns this for the next decade. You’d be building during that window, not after it.

05

You’re building infrastructure, not just selling produce

This isn’t a trading desk. You’re building the systems — traceability, compliance, buyer relationships — that the next generation of Indian exporters will run on.

06

Less admin, more judgment

We’re not retrofitting old processes with new tools. Every workflow here is built assuming AI does the busywork, so humans do the judgment calls.

Frequently asked

FAQ.

The questions we hear most. If yours isn’t here, ask in your application email.

Is this a remote role or do I need to be based somewhere specific?
The International Sales Manager roles are fully remote, within your assigned region. ZoeM is headquartered in India, but the entire commercial team is distributed — no relocation, no quarterly fly-ins, no travel obligation. Other ZoeM roles (sourcing, QA, logistics) are based in Karnataka; if that’s what you’re after, watch this page for future openings.
What does “real ownership” actually look like day-to-day?
You’ll run your function with minimal sign-offs. If you’re handling buyer relationships in Indonesia, you own that relationship — pricing conversations, follow-ups, the works. We review outcomes, not how you spent your Tuesday.
I don’t have export industry experience — can I still apply?
For the International Sales Manager roles we need 3–5 years of B2B sales experience with hands-on exposure to international trade — Incoterms, LCs, export documentation. If you’re strong on B2B fundamentals but new to agri-specifically, that’s fine; we’ll teach you the produce side. If you’ve never touched export documentation, this isn’t the role for you yet.
How does the AI-native part actually work in practice?
You’ll use AI tools daily — for lead research, documentation drafts, market intelligence, content. It’s not optional or “extra.” If a task can be done faster with AI assistance, that’s the default, freeing you to focus on relationships, negotiation, and decisions that actually need a human.
What’s the growth path here?
We’re targeting 25 countries in the next 24 months across Agriculture, Ayurveda, and Art exports. Early team members who deliver will take on larger categories, markets, or functions as we scale — this isn’t a role that stays static if you don’t want it to.
