Job description

Job Description: Business Development Manager - Home/Field-based - Swindon/Gloucester

Up to £38,000 + uncapped bonus potential, company car or car allowance & home-based contract

Here at Brakes, we've got ambitious growth plans. If you want to be part of shaping the future of our independent business and join a team at the cutting edge of foodservice trends, then we have a fantastic opportunity for a Business Development Manager to join our Independent Sales Team.

What you'll be doing:

1. Scope out, hunt, and seal the deal with fresh, independent new business opportunities whilst maintaining a healthy pipeline.
2. Cultivate strong connections with independent players in the local food market using your innate curiosity for all things foodie.
3. Craft bespoke culinary propositions to help our customers save time and money.
4. Drive growth by hitting profit targets and earning rewards accordingly.
5. Welcome new clients with style and finesse, ensuring they feel at home with your Area Sales Manager.
6. Monitor competition and market trends to provide the hottest solutions and insights from the world's biggest food wholesaler.
7. Achieve market goals with enthusiasm and expertise.

What we are looking for:

Ideally, you'll come from a background similar to Field Sales, but this isn't essential. We seek individuals with a commercial mindset, drive, and ambition to make a difference by delivering against targets. Confidence in being out on the field is crucial, as the customer is at the heart of everything you do.

We offer a comprehensive induction program to teach you about our products and business. Food service or hospitality experience is advantageous but not mandatory, as you'll receive the training needed to succeed.

We value diversity and aim to create an inclusive workplace. We want you to define our culture by bringing your whole self to work.
