  • Collaborate closely with Buying, Merchandising, Operations and Finance teams to ensure margin control, stock planning and fulfilment alignment
  • Monitor market trends, competitor activity and pricing dynamics within the premium hamper sector
  • Report regularly on pipeline health, performance against budget and growth strategy

Requirements:

  • Significant B2B sales experience within luxury gifting, premium food, hospitality or a related sector
  • Experience managing and developing team members, with confident leadership and delegation skills
  • Proven track record of delivering and exceeding substantial revenue targets
  • Experience using a CRM, preferably HubSpot

  • Highly disciplined approach to pipeline management and sales reporting
  • Resilient and performance-driven, particularly in peak seasonal trading environments
  • Strong understanding of the UK corporate gifting and hamper market
  • Excellent presentation and communication skills, with attention to detail befitting a premium brand
What we offer:
  • A positive workplace environment with opportunities to develop both personally and professionally
  • Peace of mind with Employee Life Cover, providing your nominated loved one with 2x your salary
  • Support from our Employee Assistance Programme, including unlimited 24/7 remote GP appointments for you and your family
