Fantastic opportunity to break into Foodservice National Accounts

THE COMPANY:

We are a family company that has been established for over 100 years specialising in high end Cheese products.

With a turnover in excess of £60 Million we have grown to be a major and established player in the Cheese sector, supplying many major retail and OOH companies, but at the same time have maintained the family values that enable us to be a fantastic employer.

Our product range is comprehensive and is sourced from Premium suppliers both across the UK and globally.

We work on a bespoke basis with our customers to provide own brand solutions tailored exactly to their requirements and have an exceptional reputation for both quality of product and service.

We have seen continued growth over recent years which has enabled us to further grow our OOH/Foodservice division within which an opening has arisen for a new KAM to join the team.

THE ROLE:This opportunity is a varied role with responsibility for both account managing and developing new business with OOH/Foodservice clients.

You will manage an account base of Foodservice end users - predominantly across the Hotel, Restaurant, pub group and QSR sectors.

You will be responsible for taking briefs for requirements from these customers and sourcing the right solutions for their needs.

You will also focus on reaching out to new potential clients to introduce our company, product ranges and services, and develop new relationships for the company.

We see this role as being an extremely key and important part of our growth plans and we are looking to appoint someone with a passion and flair for foodservice that can interface within our foodservice strategy, whilst at the same time have the autonomy and initiative to pro-actively develop relationships independently.

THE APPLICANT.

We see this as a fantastic opportunity for a progressive individual from a Foodservice background who is seeking to develop their career into National Accounts.

  • Candidates must have previous experience of sales into the OOH/Foodservice sector.
  • We welcome candidates with a background in Regional sales with independents seeking to step up to KAM/NAE level.
  • Candidates with experience working for a Food manufacturer will be of particular interest, but we also welcome applications from candidates from a wholesale background.
  • Candidates must be passionate foodies, with a "hands on", "Can do" approach to sales and effective team players with strong communication skills.
