What You’ll Actually Be Doing
As a Sales Executive (Business Development Executive), you’ll
* Own and manage your store visit route like it’s your own mini business
* Build strong relationships with store managers and key decision makers
* Spot growth opportunities and turn them into action
* Increase distribution, visibility, and promotional compliance
* Optimise space and make sure our brands stand out
* Share insights and category knowledge that add value
What’s In It For You
* Working with recognisable household brands
* Real ownership of your own territory
* Career Growth - full training and a clear path for progression within the company
* Annual leave - 21 days + bank holidays, with option to buy/sell holidays
* Benefits - Medicash, enhanced maternity leave, enhanced paternity leave and adoption leave, enhanced pension, life insurance, cycle to work scheme, referral programme, plus access to Perkbox and Taste Card benefits
What We’re Looking For
We’re open on background - we’re strong on mindset.
Although retail or grocery experience is ideal, it can be learned quickly. Drive, curiosity and accountability are what make the difference.
But what really matters is that you
* Enjoy speaking to new people and building rapport
* Are commercially curious (you like understanding how things sell)
* Take ownership rather than waiting to be told
* Are organised and proactive
* Are comfortable working independently
* Hold a full UK driving licence for at least 12 months
If you’re ready to build relationships, grow accounts and make your mark in field sales - apply today.
Please note
You’ll be representing frozen food brands, so this role involves significant time working in store freezer environments. Protective clothing - such as hat, gloves, jacket - are provided.
