Job description

A small, family‑run business built around a simple belief: good food brings people together – is looking for a Sales & Marketing Executive to join the team.

They create beautiful spice tins, blends and gifts for home cooks, food lovers and retailers who care about flavour, quality and story. Everything they do – from the spices they source, to the sari‑wrapped tins they pack by hand, to the way they speak to customers – is rooted in warmth, generosity and genuine human connection.

They’re not just building a brand; they’re building a community. Their customers, suppliers and team all matter. As they continue to grow, introduce new products, expand their retail presence and explore new ways of selling (including live and social selling), they’re looking for someone who wants to grow with us.

About the role

As Sales & Marketing Executive, you’ll be involved in bringing the business to life – talking to customers, supporting sales activity, representing us in person and online, and helping turn brand love into real commercial results.

If you enjoy variety, being visible, getting stuck in and wearing a few different hats, you’ll feel very at home here. This is a hands‑on role in a small team, where ideas are welcomed, flexibility is essential, and no two weeks look quite the same.

You’ll work closely with the wider team and founders, with real ownership, room to grow, and support to build your skills across sales, marketing, live presenting and events.

What you’ll be getting stuck into

• Supporting and hosting live social selling sessions (including on‑camera work)
• Representing the business at consumer events, trade shows and live activations
• Supporting retailer outreach, follow‑ups, samples and account administration
• Helping plan campaigns, generate content ideas, support newsletters and influencer activity
• Assisting with event logistics, stock handling and on‑the‑ground brand delivery
• Being a warm, knowledgeable point of contact for customers and partners

What you’ll bring with you as Sales & Marketing Executive

• Experience in sales, marketing, retail, events or customer‑facing roles
• Confidence speaking to people in person, on camera and over the phone
• Some experience supporting sales activity, trade accounts or retail partners
• Strong organisation skills and the ability to juggle varied responsibilities
• A full UK driving licence and confidence driving for work purposes

Personal skills & competencies

• Enjoy working in a small, growing business where things evolve and improve over time
• Are proactive, practical and happy to roll your sleeves up when needed
• Can manage your own time and priorities, while staying flexible as plans change
• Communicate clearly, kindly and honestly – even when things feel busy
• Are resilient, solution‑focused and not afraid of learning as you go
• Can give and receive constructive feedback and reflect on your own development
• Are, on the whole, a “glass half full” person (with space for being human too)
• A love of food really matters here

What’s in it for you

• A varied role across sales, marketing, events and live selling
• Hybrid working with time in our Liverpool office and flexibility built in
• Training and support across live presenting, social selling and sales activity
• UK travel opportunities for shows, events and activations
• Real scope to grow as the business – and the role – evolves
