Offer description

About The Role

Tropic is entering an exciting new chapter - one where we’re doubling down on the very heart of our business: our Ambassadors. For over a decade, our field has powered Tropic’s growth, impact, and community, and now we’re ready to unlock the next phase of what’s possible.

This role exists to champion and elevate our Ambassador leaders, helping them grow with confidence, clarity, and commercial strength. As our Growth and Development Lead, you’ll work closely with mid-level Ambassador leadership teams across the field, supporting them to step fully into leadership, strengthen duplication, and build sustainable, thriving businesses through the Success Plan.

Sitting at the intersection of real field experience and HQ strategy, you’ll be a powerful voice for our Ambassador leaders - translating vision into action, listening deeply to what the field truly needs, and bringing fresh, innovative thinking that keeps Tropic ahead of the industry. Through coaching, mentoring, training, and innovation, you’ll play a pivotal role in shaping the future of leadership within our Ambassador community, and in turn, the future growth of Tropic itself.

1. Support and develop mid-level leaders as they progress through the Success Plan.

) Field Insight & Continuous Improvement

23. Act as a trusted bridge between HQ and the field, ensuring insights flow both ways.
24. Spot patterns early: what’s working, what’s stalling, where leaders need more support.
25. Feed real-world insight into training, communications and leadership programmes.

What We're Looking For

26. Proven experience in direct sales / social selling / network marketing, with success in the field.
27. A strong understanding of how leaders progress through success plans and what blocks them at mid-levels.
