London Sales & Relationship Manager

"Lemonaid & ChariTea are ethical soft drinks that support social projects in the growing regions."

We are looking for a full-time & permanent London Sales & Relationship Manager. An outgoing and driven self-starter with 3+ years of coffee experience to help grow our ethical soft drinks brand across the capital.

Squeezed from fresh fruits without squeezing our growers, Lemonaid and ChariTea started as a Social Enterprise 13 years ago in Germany, with the aim to support the parts of the world frequently disadvantaged in the global economy. Our soft drinks are made from Organic and Fairtrade certified ingredients, sourced from small-farming cooperatives. For every bottle sold, 5p go to the Lemonaid & ChariTea Foundation which supports people and communities in the countries where our ingredients are grown, with over £7 million raised to date.

The Role

You will own half of London and nearby with responsibility for the growth and account management of coffee shops, restaurants, bars, hotels and independent retailers. From increasing in-store visibility to business development by winning new stockists, you’ll have a wide range of responsibility and freedom in masterminding and executing our sales strategy. You will join our UK sales and marketing team, whilst being part of a fast-growing international social business with offices across Europe and 100+ employees globally.

What the role offers you:

• Independent place of work - you organise and execute your own trips Mon-Fri to visit clients across London, with options to do the admin side of your job from home, our Southwark office, or your favourite coffee shop

• Access to a shared pool car during your work hours and an Oyster card for your work trips (clean UK driving licence required, min 1 year old)

• 26 - 30 days’ holiday a year (plus public holidays!)

• Annual Summer and Winter parties in one of our Global Markets - think German castles or French beachside

• Project trips to our farming cooperatives and project partners in the Global South

• Monthly Team Socials

• Private Medical Insurance (incl. dental, optical & mental health), co-paid by the company

• Pension Scheme

• OTE of £26,000 - £35,000 per year, dependent on meeting your monthly sales targets

What we are looking for:

• Excellent and confident communicator with great interpersonal skills

• Infectious enthusiasm, switched-on and authentic

• Independent and autonomous as you will be in the field 80% of the week

• Resilient – you don’t take ‘no’ for an answer and have a history of overcoming challenges

• A proactive, extrovert approach and an entrepreneurial attitude

Start date: April/May 2023.
