Field Sales Executive – Foodservice
North Territory (Field-Based)
£38k + 25% Bonus + Car or allowance
Ready to take ownership of a territory where your impact is felt immediately?
We’re partnering with one of the UK’s leading world‑food and foodservice specialists - a business known for bold flavours, fast growth, and a fiercely loyal customer base across restaurants, wholesalers, pubs, and casual dining groups. Their Foodservice division is expanding rapidly, and they’re now looking for a Territory Sales Manager who wants to drive real results across the North.
This isn’t a “maintain the status quo” type of role.
This is a hands‑on, on‑the‑ground commercial role where you’ll nurture key accounts, hunt new business, and influence how operators experience some of the most exciting products in foodservice.
What You’ll Be Doing You’ll be the face of the brand across your region — building relationships, solving problems, and opening doors. You’ll work with chefs, buyers, operators, and wholesalers to grow distribution, increase rate of sale, and elevate product visibility.
Expect to:
Manage, grow, and retain key accounts across the North
Hunt and convert new business across restaurants, wholesalers, and foodservice operators
Deliver commercial targets across sales value, volume, and profit
Build strong customer relationships through regular site visits, sampling sessions & menu engagement
Shape pricing, promotions, and joint business plans
Analyse sales data to forecast, plan, and spot opportunities
Maintain detailed journey plans and territory action plans
Partner with internal teams across supply chain, customer service, transport, and national accounts
Ensure cash collections and trading terms are met
Represent the business at events, customer meetings, and trade shows
About You You’re proactive, commercially sharp, and genuinely motivated by growth. You thrive in front of customers, love being out in the field, and you’re comfortable owning a region with autonomy.
You’ll likely bring:
2+ years of FMCG sales experience (Foodservice experience strongly preferred)
A proven track record of developing and winning business
Strong communication and negotiation skills
Confidence working with data, numbers, and commercial plans
Great organisational discipline — journey plans, reports, forecasting
A self‑starter mentality with strong problem‑solving skills
A passion for food and the operators who bring it to life
Why This Role Stands Out You’re joining a business with serious brand recognition, strong flavours, and massive opportunity within the foodservice channel. You’ll have the room to develop your region your way, backed by a supportive leadership team, great product availability, and a loyal customer base that loves what this brand represents.
If you want a role where every day feels different and where your numbers, relationships, and ideas genuinely shape the territory... this is it.
