You'll be looking for a role that allows you the flexibility to be out on site with customers most of the week, while also having a local office base for all the necessary backup and team support. What do I need? A track record of growing sales within a territory in the foodservice sector is key for this role. Organisation will of course be vital too - ensuring you can make the most of your time by effectively planning customer visits and processing orders.
