Context
Social Supermarket is the fastest growing social enterprise marketplace in the UK. Our vision is to become the UK’s most trusted supplier of impact led products. As companies are under increasing pressure to source sustainably, both from regulation and their employees, Social Supermarket is well positioned to be the go-to supplier for sustainable gifting and branded merchandise.
In particular, branded merchandise has been our fastest growing product category in the last two years. We partner with hundreds of clients who are looking for sustainable alternatives to traditional wasteful merchandise. For every order we also offer clients a personalised impact report that translates their purchases to positive social and environmental impact. We are now looking to scale up our branded merchandise business that has shown great traction so far and we are keen for someone who can support us on this journey.
We’re looking to hire an experienced sales person who is keen to work with impact led products and whose role will be focussed on providing branded merchandise and gifting solutions to our top corporate customers. This person should be able to demonstrate a track record of selling branded merchandise and / or gifting for a number years to larger corporate clients. This could be a role for you if you are someone with a passion for purpose led challenger brands and excited at the prospect to roll up your sleeves in an entrepreneurial setting.
Job Description:
As a strategic account manager for merchandise and gifting, you will be working with our largest corporate clients looking to expand and deepen our existing relationships, including targeting to become the dedicated supplier of merchandise and gifting. You will be sourcing and presenting the most exciting products that also have tangible social or environmental impact. Think branded plants that empower women in prison to notebooks made from stone that fund clean drinking water projects. Working closely with our partners and internal teams, you will champion our sustainable products, fostering strong relationships and driving sales performance to achieve ambitious targets.
