Rui Delgado, Entrepreneurship / Online Marketing / E-Commerce answered:

I'm afraid they will not take you in if you're working with another company. They would see this as a potential conflict of interest. However, that position you're describing -Country Manager- could come with a good salary and opportunities to grow within the company.

What you should do is to make a list of every company you want to work with, and look for other "Country Managers" (that's the position you're describing) in the company are: their background, profile, M.O., etc.

If you fit the profile, you should pitch them as hard as you can, and you have to have a good strategy to do so. Remember, if you can't reach them, it means you will not be able to fulfill your duties as a country manager. You have to show them what you're capable of doing.
