Location: UK - regular travel across Central & Northern England

You’re a well-connected B2B commercial professional with an established profile in the UK agri-commodities market. Join a family-owned trading business that sits outside the global conglomerates. This company is large enough to ensure security of supply, yet agile enough to adapt quickly as markets move.

This company, headquartered in Europe, has been successfully operating across three continents for more than 20 years. The UK is a key growth market for the business, hence the creation of this role.

While the majority of the business will concentrate on central and northern England, applications from candidates in most UK locations will be welcomed.

The Role: 

• Reporting into the Global Commercial Manager, you’ll be tasked with developing new business across the UK, identifying and converting opportunities in both the ruminant and monogastric sectors.
• You’ll represent a business that places strong emphasis on supply chain traceability and security of supply, backed by robust internal support across procurement, logistics and supply chain.
• The role will offer lots of autonomy. At the same time, the business brings it's global commercial team together weekly to share crucial market intelligence and pricing strategy. 

Key responsibilities will include:

• Developing new accounts and expanding business with UK customers across animal feed, nutrition, and agri-commodities.
• Building a pipeline through your established network and targeted market development activity.
• Managing commercial negotiations and customer relationships with a long-term, value-led approach.
• Working closely with procurement/trading colleagues to align customer demand with market availability and pricing.
• Communicating supply chain traceability, provenance, and continuity-of-supply as core differentiators.
• Staying close to market movements and customer sentiment, responding quickly as dynamics shift.

The Candidate:

• This role will appeal to established B2B commercial managers who already understand how business is won in UK agri-inputs: trust first, consistency always, and commercial acumen throughout.
• You may come from (but are not limited to):
• Feed manufacturers, compounders and pre-mixers
• Feed supplements/additives businesses (manufacturer or distributor)
• Animal nutrition companies
• Agri-commodities trading or merchanting
• Animal health / pharmaceuticals
• Dairy hygiene, sundries and allied farm supply businesses

Your profile:

• A proven track record in field-based B2B sales, trading, or business development
• A strong, current network of decision-makers across UK feed/animal nutrition
• Confidence operating with autonomy and representing a business at a senior, credible level
• A commercially sharp mindset: margin, volume, risk awareness, and long-term account value
• The ability to spot opportunity quickly and act decisively as markets move

Location & Package:

• UK-based, home-based role with national coverage (focusing on central and northern England)
• Competitive basic salary
• Performance-related bonus
• Company car/car allowance
