Ideally, you’ll come from a similar background to Field Sales, however this isn’t essential. We are looking for people who have a commercial mindset, who have the drive and ambition to make a difference to the business by delivering against targets. The customer will be at the heart of everything you do, so being confident being out on the field is essential.
We have a great induction programme where we will teach you everything you need to know about our products and the business, so although food service experience/hospitality would be advantageous, you’ll get the training you need to succeed.
We’re not just looking for a good fit, we want people who help to make us even better. We’re passionate about creating an inclusive workplace that celebrates and values diversity.
