Culinary Adviser/Demonstrator (Ideal For Chefs/Ex Chefs) - Scotland

Culinary Adviser / Demonstrator ( Ideal for Chefs / ex-Chefs ) - Scotland

£40-45,000 Basic, Bonus, Generous Mileage Allowance

Our client is a well leading distributor of chilled and ambient food products with a loyal customer base in the south of England, North and the Midlands, however that market penetration does not ( until now ) extend to Scotland. A recent merger now presents the opportunity to extend the sales efforts into Scotland, and we have been retained to identify and recruit an accomplished individual. Although this is a new area, an existing customer base does exist as the result of a strong market presence by the other party to the merger, so there are existing and warm relationships already which should make the cross fertilisation of products relatively easy.

To be considered you should ideally have worked as a chef at some stage in the past as much of the work involves doing product demos to chefs, so you’ll need an ability to talk to chefs in their own language. Some sales exposure would also be a bonus, although we have also been briefed to accept applications from candidates (Chefs/Ex Chefs) looking for their first ever sales roles as well.

To be considered, you will need to be a proactive self-starter, highly disciplined and well-organised with a strong desire to succeed. Career prospects are excellent for the right individual.

In return for your dedication and hard work our client is prepared to pay a basic salary of between £35,589 to £45,257 plus commission and plus generous car allowance.
