Field Sales Executive

What Does a Field Sales Executive Actually Do?

If you're currently working in retail, hospitality, or customer service and looking for a career step with more freedom, higher earning potential, and true variety, this is your opportunity. As a Field Sales Executive, you'll be the face of Nestlé across your local territory, helping independent convenience stores stock and showcase some of the UK's most loved brands: KitKat, Aero, Yorkie, and Smarties.

Never worked in field sales before? Don't worry. If you know how a shop floor works, love chatting to people, and bring plenty of energy, we'll teach you the rest!

Responsibilities

• Build Great Relationships: Visit independent store owners, chat through their business needs, and become their trusted expert for Nestlé products.
• Drive Sales & Availability: Make sure stores never run out of bestsellers like KitKat and Aero, introduce new product lines, and pitch promotional deals.
• Create Eye-Catching Displays: Set up point-of-sale stands, organize promotional displays, and place stock where shoppers are most likely to buy it.
• Manage Stock: Collect and move stock from local Cash & Carry depots to supply retailers directly (this involves some light manual handling and stocking).
• Plan Your Own Day: Map out your visits efficiently across Sutton and surrounding areas to get the most out of your week.

Why You'll Love This Role

• Freedom & Ownership: No micromanagement. You run your own daily schedule and manage your own territory.
• Company Car & Fuel Card: Complete access to a work vehicle with business fuel covered.
• Work-Life Balance: Standard Monday to Friday hours. Enjoy every weekend off.
• A Fast Track to Sales: Gain hands-on sales experience backed by full training, ongoing coaching, and clear career progression pathways within Nestlé and Powerforce.

Ideal Candidate

• A People Person: Confident, friendly, and comfortable starting conversations with store managers and owners.
• Self-Motivated & Organised: Able to manage your time well and stay focused while working independently out on the road.
• Eager to Learn: Excited to learn sales techniques, brand strategies, and how the retail sector works behind the scenes.
• Backgrounds that fit well: Experience in retail, supermarkets, hospitality, customer service, merchandising, or promotions is a huge plus!

Requirements

• A valid UK driver's license (or equivalent) and comfortable with physical aspects like loading/unloading stock from the car and Cash & Carry depots.
