Job Details
Do you want to work for a well-known branded chilled meals business who are at the forefront of their category? I am representing a fantastic branded and OL company that was founded just over 20 years ago and whose sole aim is to create top quality dishes for genuine foodies who are always on the move.
They are seeking an ambitious and dynamic individual to join a fun, fast-paced team supporting the management of their Grocery accounts, most likely to be Asda, Booths and Budgens. You will build strong working relationships with internal and external teams where you will act as a brand ambassador at all times. You will work closely with your Commercial Controller in implementing strategy plans to grow the accounts from their current joint £1.5mil worth.
You will be based at their office tucked away in North West London, but have the flexibility to work a day at home a week after an initial settling in period. You will be expected to visit your clients regularly to ensure you stay the face of the brand.
You will ideally have previous FMCG sales experience and evidence of developing and growing existing business, however personality and culture fit is highly important for this business. If you have the drive to succeed and the willingness to learn, then this could be the challenge you have been looking for.
Please send your CV to Fiona.prescott@advocate-group.co.uk call me on 0207 871 8000.
