We’re working with a fast-growing and mission-led sustainable packaging business supplying the hospitality industry with plant-based alternatives to traditional packaging. They’re leading the way in offering innovative, compostable, and reusable packaging solutions, with a growing footprint across the UK and Europe.

• Utilise Pipedrive (CRM) to accurately manage all client data, interactions, and activity.
• Deliver compelling product knowledge and sustainability insight to support sales conversations.
• Collaborate with internal teams to ensure seamless onboarding, account management, and retention.
• Represent the brand at industry events, trade shows, and networking opportunities.

What We’re Looking For:

• Proven track record in B2B sales, ideally within the foodservice, hospitality, or FMCG sectors.
• Self-starter mentality with the drive to work independently and hit ambitious targets.
• Experience managing a sales pipeline and working with CRM tools (Pipedrive desirable).
• Passion for sustainability, design, or the coffee/hospitality industry is a major plus.
• Able to think creatively, problem-solve on the go, and bring energy to the team.
