Great Dunmow, United Kingdom apetito Full time
Overview:

The Role and Team

This position is a 12-month fixed-term contract.

37.5 hours per week, any 5 in 6 days (Monday-Saturday).

This is an exciting new position which will focus on growing our business through raising brand awareness and encouraging recommendations. You will build connections with local Healthcare Professionals, GP surgeries, charities, and community groups engaged in supporting the needs of the elderly in the community.

Collaborating with the Retail Sales and Operations Manager and our Wiltshire Farm Foods Professional division you will devise and implement a plan to deliver 5% order and unit growth.

Your territory will cover Great Dunmow, West London & North London and the surrounding areas and reports directly into the RSOM; however, you will be responsible for managing your time and diary.

A proven track record of building and maintain relationships is key as your primary responsibility will be to develop relationships with new and existing customers.

These relationships will enable you to raise awareness and educate others on the Wiltshire Farm Foods solution, ultimately promoting business growth.

We are looking for someone with exceptional customer service and communication skills, with the enthusiasm to get out in the community.

There is no typical week as a Business Development Executive which keeps the role exciting and varied, however the expectation is that the successful candidate would be out in the community 4 days a week. The remaining working day is likely to be based at the local depot completing admin tasks, researching prospects, confirming appointments and cold-calling local prospects.

Overview

Wiltshire Farm Foods exists to serve and “make a real difference” to our customers. We aim to provide great food with superb personal service, where every contact brings a little sunshine to our customers lives.
