Field Sales Executive

The Team

The UK & Ireland is Deliveroo's most mature market globally. Functions include commercial, operations and marketing, and teams in the UK&I partner with global departments such as Product, Technology, Consumer and Restaurants.

The UK&I Regional team drives Deliveroo's performance across all five nations. From Brighton to Bangor, Bolton to Belfast, we are experts in the local markets we serve. In the Regional team, we oversee all three sides of our marketplace: restaurants, consumers and riders.

As part of the UK&I Regional UKI team, you will sign up the best restaurants in the city/region. UK&I Regional presents one of the biggest growth opportunities available to Deliveroo and we are building a diverse team of talented, commercially experienced individuals to help us fulfil our potential.

The Role

We are looking for a Field Sales Executive to join our North East & Yorkshire team. This is a rare opportunity to join the Regional Team, with a direct contribution to the success of the cities you work in. You'll build relationships with new restaurant partners across your area, improving our proposition for customers; you’ll role model best-in-class behaviour to the team, coaching and guiding them. This role is a perfect fit for a candidate who enjoys building rapport, delivering results and working independently. You will report to the City Manager and be based from the Leeds office but spend the majority of your time in your cities.

• Make yourself known in target cities as the food delivery and restaurant industry expert; building trust and facilitating inbound deal flow.
• Oversee the restaurant onboarding process to ensure it is quick, efficient and seamless and support continuous improvement.
• Log all meetings and activity in Salesforce, with clear and concise notes.

As this role requires regular travel around to towns and cities in the North of England, from Sheffield to Sunderland. We're looking for candidates who have a valid drivers licence and car, thrive with autonomy, are excited about a field-based role and enjoy spending most of their week outside of the office. To help you maximise your time and reduce travel, we offer fully expensed overnight stays.

• Confident and charismatic individual who can “sell with style”
• Track record of delivering outstanding commercial results
• Strong commercial acumen, results and target-oriented
• Effective relationship-building and communication skills
• Self-starter, hard worker and well organised, enjoys working autonomously and working in the field 4-5 days per week
