Job description

Seven Executive is partnering with an established global supplier of flexible packaging films to appoint an experienced Senior Sales Manager.

This is a highly autonomous role for someone who knows the film market, already has relationships across the converter landscape, and wants the freedom to build business without layers of corporate bureaucracy.

The Opportunity

You’ll take ownership of developing new business across North America, selling raw / unconverted film substrates in master and jumbo roll format directly to converters.

• BOPP
• CPP
• PE
• Nylon / BOPA
• Specialty and coated films
• Aluminium foil and adjacent substrates

You’ll have access to an established international supplier network, warehousing capabilities and a business that has operated in the market for more than four decades.

This is not a role where leads are simply handed across.

They want someone who can identify opportunities, open doors, build relationships and turn them into long-term commercial accounts.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Develop net-new converter accounts across North America
• Grow existing strategic relationships
• Own customer relationships from initial discussion through commercial close
• Sell across flexible packaging, industrial and specialty film applications
• Manage pricing, margins and commercial negotiations
• Work closely with international manufacturing partners
• Support customers around specifications, sourcing and supply requirements
• Identify new products, applications and market opportunities

What They’re Looking For

• Strong experience selling BOPET, BOPP, CPP, PE, nylon or specialty films
• Direct relationships with flexible packaging converters
• Experience selling raw film rather than finished converted packaging
• A genuine track record of winning new accounts
• Understanding of film applications, specifications and converting processes
• The commercial confidence to operate independently
• Willingness to travel when required

Experience across thick-gauge PET, industrial applications, silicone-coated PET or release liner markets would be particularly interesting.

Why Consider It?

This is a genuine plug-and-play commercial opportunity.

You’ll have the products, sourcing network, infrastructure and backing already in place, but considerable freedom over how you develop your market.

There’s limited bureaucracy, direct access to senior leadership and an uncapped commission structure designed to reward production.

If you know the flexible films market and want more ownership over what you build, I’d be interested in speaking with you.
