This is a rare opportunity to shape the future of a growing business operating across food service, retail grocery, and B2B ingredient manufacturing - with genuine strategic impact from day one.

My client needs someone who knows how to win, whether that's securing national retail listings, landing major food service contracts, or building strategic ingredient partnerships with CPG manufacturers and QSRs.

• Multi-channel sales strategy across food service, retail, and B2B ingredients
• P&L management and pricing strategy for multi-million-pound portfolios
• Building and leading high-performance sales teams
• Key relationships with senior buyers at major retailers, QSRs, distributors, and ingredient customers
• Cross-functional collaboration with R&D, Supply Chain, and Marketing to drive innovation

• Proven success selling into food service operators, retail chains, and ingredient buyers (QSR, CPG, co-manufacturers)
• Experience across branded, private label, and ingredient portfolios in sectors like protein, bakery, snacks, dairy, or prepared foods
• Strong technical understanding of ingredients, formulations, and manufacturing processes
