Are you passionate about health and wellbeing? Would you like to combine this passion with working with a fantastic, market-leading business in the Health & Wellness sector?

This global FMCG business was founded in Sweden in 2008 and has since established a successful portfolio of brands in functional food and drinks all over the world, with year-on-year growth in the UK. Their business is all about Health and Wellness and is characterised by passion and an action-orientated working environment.

Their products are already a household name in many fitness establishments, and they are looking to expand across all channels!

Culture and fit are absolutely everything to these guys.

• Selling the existing range, new launches, and campaigns to customers in the retail, convenience & hospitality sector.
• Creating efficient and effective plans with commercial and brand guidance.
• Building & developing relationships with existing decision makers across key routes to market and wholesale partners to ensure customers and consumer needs are met.
• Maximising brand awareness and communicating new product opportunities.
• Ensuring promotional activity is implemented and identifying and implementing in-store merchandising opportunities to increase brand visibility & availability.

And you’ll need this:

• Some experience in a commercial setting or an obvious aptitude to learn.
• Be able to work effectively under one's own initiative.
• Passionate about finding new creative sales solutions together with your customers, and you believe in establishing long-term relationships.
• Ability to highlight and follow through with challenges and opportunities alike.
• Thrive on a high pace and quick decisions. You are socially skilled and humble towards both customers and colleagues.
• Thorough, structured, and with a high work ethic.
