Job Overview

Are you a natural hustler with a passion for building brands in the foodservice world? This is an exciting opportunity to join a young, fast‑growing functional drinks challenger brand. Their sparkling functional drink combines clean energy, adaptogens, and nootropics, designed to help people feel good, focus better, and perform at their best.

They are excited to recruit a National Account Manager to lead their expansion into the foodservice channel.

The Role

You’ll be responsible for driving growth and distribution within key UK foodservice and out‑of‑home customers — think Brakes, Bidfood, DDC, and Delicious Ideas — as well as identifying new opportunities across the foodservice/OOH and premium retail channels.

This role will grow into something much bigger, and you will be in charge of shaping what your career path could look like.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and execute a foodservice sales strategy to drive brand visibility and distribution.
• Identify, onboard, and grow relationships with key wholesalers, distributors, and national accounts.
• Negotiate listings, promotional plans, and pricing in line with commercial objectives.
• Collaborate closely with marketing to deliver tailored activation and sampling programmes.
• Track sales performance, report on key metrics, and ensure profitable growth.

About You

• Proven sales experience with key foodservice customers
• Experience working within functional drinks, soft drinks or health & wellness (or a passion for these categories)
• Existing network or experience working with major wholesalers such as Brakes, Bidfood, DDC, or Delicious Ideas.
• Confident negotiator with a track record of winning new listings.
• Entrepreneurial mindset — comfortable in a fast‑paced, start‑up environment.
• Strong commercial acumen and ability to work independently.
• Passionate about health, wellness, and sustainable innovation.

What’s on Offer

• Opportunity to shape the sales strategy for an exciting start‑up brand and the ability to grow a team around you in time.
• Flexible working and autonomy to build your own success.
• Dynamic, collaborative start‑up culture with huge scope for impact.
