London
Work From Home and Field Based Role (WFH)
Since 1997 Windfall have been helping new and established brands succeed in the UK. We are always looking for brands with a point of difference, having helped to create the fruit cider category 10+ years ago to making vegetable juice a familiar sight on thousands of supermarket shelves, we love something new, premium and unique! Our sales team work across all the trade channels in the UK, from supermarkets to the licenced on trade, through “Food to Go”, HORECA and contract catering. Our brands can be found in everywhere from Starbucks and The Pig Hotel and Revolution Bars to the staff restaurants of Google and Spotify.
Our team are based across the UK and the London Key Account Exec (KAE) role is home based but with easy access to London.
We want to work with people that are imaginative, not afraid to ask questions, and non-corporate. We are keen to attract candidates at the top of their game who share our passion for food and drink. So, if you are a forward thinking, food and drink obsessed individual motivated towards career development, then we think we have the perfect opportunity for you.
This will involve a combination of networking with London regional and national wholesalers and their sales teams, targeting national/regional group customers at HO level and via key individual sites. Previous foodservice or on trade sales experience will be needed, but the role is a varied one and as such could suit someone looking for their next steps after year or two in their first role, through to an experienced KAM looking for a real challenge working with on trend branded products.
We run the sales for brands such as:
- Bol Foods
- PACK'D
- Karma Drinks
- Butcombe Brewery
- Bottle Up
- British Snack Co - Paper Bag Crisps
- Big Tom Spiced Tomato Juice
- Baijiu Society Spirits
- and more...
The role of BDE will see you representing Windfall’s new and existing brands within rapidly growing categories including snacking, soft drinks, alcohol and food. You will work closely with our Key and National Account Managers working with end customers to support activating existing listings and create new ones by selling in and activating across bars, restaurants hotels, coffee shops and catering sites such as:
- Caravan Restaurants
- Dishoom
- Blank Street Coffee
- Gaucho
- Drake & Morgan
- Curzon Cinemas
- Redemption Roaster
Naturally, you'll be expected to hit business targets for your customers, but you'll be given great help to achieve this through working with your colleagues and the brand owners where you can help to shape their brand and business decisions. You'll be an active and vocal team player as well as a brand champion who is keen to share best practice with others in the team.
Trust, integrity and freedom are core values for us so we won’t be looking over your shoulder, and as a small team of 20 people and a family business you will be an important part of our future success.
If you have always wanted to make an impact and help shape and create new brands and ideas then we would love to hear from you.
