Healthy Basic Salary and a Comprehensive, Market Leading Package
Do you sometimes get the feeling that the work part of your life is some kind of uneasy dream and, more importantly, exactly whose dream it actually is, and whether they are enjoying it? It really doesn’t have to be that way.
Traditional sales roles are predominantly focused on new business. This opportunity is different; you will begin this role with long-standing existing accounts to leverage, allowing you to make an immediate impact. Of course, securing new customers will also be part of your responsibilities. Who doesn’t?
But yes, you can have your cake and eat it.
As the Area Sales Manager for Viscofan, you will be key to the business’s growth by creating, managing, and expanding relationships. Ideally, you will have a background in selling solutions into the food production sector or some experience within the food industry.

They are known for delivering high-quality products and excellent service levels, maintaining a strong reputation among major food businesses across the UK.

Your role will involve building high-level relationships with key customers to cross-sell, upsell, and increase turnover and commitment from major food production companies.
What You Will Do:
You will support the Head of Sales in developing new product streams with existing customers and in acquiring new customer relationships. This is a home-based role requiring regular customer visits across the country.
