Job Details
I’m partnered exclusively with the hottest free-from brand in the industry right now, who are looking to hire a new SNAM/Head Of Sales to head up the UK & international business.
Founded by f&b start-up heavyweights, this brand is going places. After being founded in 2014, they already have regional hubs in the UK, the USA and across Europe, and are now on track to turn over £10million this year. These guys are the only brand gaining space in their category, and are growing at an extreme rate of 60% YOY. The brand also has a large NPD pipeline dropping soon, ready to take the brand into the fastest growing on-trend category in the industry.
The role is open for someone to come in, build on the existing national grocery accounts, continue to push this brand forward in the UK, and to be a mentor to a sales team of three.
Progression? This brand has done extremely well so far. As they continue to grow and expand, they need a new Sales Director, as the current incumbent progresses up to MD. This will be you.
We’re looking for sh*t hot talent from blue chip, or fellow disrupter brands, currently operating at SNAM/Customer Business Manager type level.
These types of opportunities are rare. If you’re interested, let’s connect on 07543 184 009. Alternatively, apply below, or drop me a copy of your CV to matthew@foodindustryassociates.com.
Company
For over a decade now, Food Industry Associates Ltd have proven to be a recruiter of choice for ambitious SME food and beverage manufacturers across the UK. We don't recruit for the big corporates by choice. Instead, we choose to work with companies with personality, entrepreneurial flare (not process), looking to disrupt the market with cutting edge innovation to provide consumers with better, healthier choices.
Are you an early stage start-up struggling to find the right solution to help you gain your fist listings in a specific customer channel before you can raise the budget to employ somebody on a permanent basis? Maybe you know you need to source a commercial leader but aren't 100% clear in what format, or how to adequately incentivise somebody from a much larger business to join your mission? Come speak to us.
If you're a more established business looking to bring fresh talent on board to drive ambitious sales targets, source a creative innovator to help you drive in to new extended categories, or looking to strengthen in marketing / category terms, again, come speak to us.
We've a proven record in recruiting talent for an array of businesses, helping them source commercial talent to help them achieve their goals. From early stage sales talent through to equity-incentivised leadership roles, we've proven time and time again to find the right people for our clients at the first attempt.
How are we different to most of our competitors? Unlike most, we don't have as diverse a portfolio of clients we work with. However all those we do work with continuously come back to us whenever they next have another need. In our opinion successful recruitment is achieved when two businesses truly 'partner' and collaborate together. In our opinion the better we know you, the better we understand all the extra elements aside from simple skillset and experience to ensure the right 'fit' is identified at the first attempt. In our opinion, this is recruitment, done properly.
