We’re hiring a Sales Executive to win new wholesale customers for Tops Supplies, our food distribution business.
Tops Pizza has been serving the UK since 1988 and today has 90+ franchise stores. Tops Supplies supplies every Tops Pizza store and brings the same buying power, product range and delivery network to food businesses across the UK. We’re growing it, and this role is about finding new customers, not just looking after existing ones.
You’ll be based at our warehouse in High Wycombe and out on the road visiting customers.
What you’ll do
- Win new wholesale customers anywhere in the UK: shops, takeaways, restaurants, cafés, caterers and other food businesses that use the products we stock (see the range at topssupplies.co.uk).
- Focus on selling what we have in stock, and get to know the range well.
- Work through our lead lists and your own contacts, by phone, email and in person.
- Present our range and prices, negotiate within agreed limits and close deals.
- Win back lapsed customers and grow what existing customers order from us.
- Be a point of contact for Tops Pizza franchisees on orders, products and prices, and help increase what stores order through us.
- Keep accurate records of visits, quotes and orders, and report weekly on new customers, sales and pipeline.
What we’re looking for
- Proven B2B sales experience winning new business, ideally in food wholesale, food service or FMCG.
- Confident on the phone and face to face, and good at closing.
- Self‑motivated and organised, with your own diary and pipeline.
- A full UK driving licence and your own vehicle for customer visits.
- The right to work in the UK. We cannot offer visa sponsorship.
Nice to have: existing contacts with food businesses, shops or takeaways, and experience with a CRM.
Pay: competitive, depending on experience, plus commission on the business you bring in.
If you’ve built a customer base from scratch before and you like being out with customers rather than only on the phone, we’d like to hear from you.
