Are you a driven B2B sales professional with experience selling into hospitality or food service? Do you have a background in fresh meat, poultry, or deli supply and thrive in a target-driven environment?

• Drive product sampling, cross-sell and up-sell opportunities
• Build long-term commercial partnerships

You will work closely with operations and customer service to ensure smooth onboarding and long‑term retention.

We are looking for:

• Proven experience in B2B business development
• Experience selling meat, poultry, fresh produce or similar FMCG into hospitality/food service
• Demonstrable track record of winning new business and hitting targets
• Strong negotiation and objection‑handling skills
• Confident communicator and persuasive presenter
• Highly organised with strong follow‑up discipline
• Comfortable with some travel to meet customers

• 28 days holiday (inclusive of bank holidays)
• £75 per month product allowance
• Free annual eye test + VDU support
• Clear opportunity to grow with an ambitious scaling business

This company exists to modernise and professionalise halal supply chains in the UK. With growing demand, strong brand positioning and operational backing, this is a high‑impact commercial role with genuine influence on growth strategy.
