Job description
SALES EXECUTIVE
Farmyard Frozen Ltd (Nationwide) is looking for a highly enthusiastic, personable, and talented individual to join the team as a part time Sales Executive.
The retail business is fast-paced and demanding, so organisation skills are essential. The role will start as part time with the potential to move to full time as sales grow, or we’d look to hire another team member at that point if you’d rather stay part time.
Responsibilities
Please note that the below are general and other duties may be needed to fulfil the role.
FARMYARD is seeking to appoint an exceptional person to develop and coordinate the day-to-day and ongoing sales activities.
This highly capable and driven individual will work closely with our Digital Marketing Team and our Customer Services Manager to plan the year ahead in terms of a sales strategy wish list. The departments will work together towards growth of the business in terms of reach to new customers in all areas of the UK.
FARMYARD currently sells via various channels, the main two being direct to the doorstep and via retail stockists. We are also now branching out into events, wholesale and the service industry.
This key post will lead the sales strategy for the business both within the high end retail sector and service industry as well creatively via new ideas such as brand collaborations, hamper companies, airlines, alcohol pairings and food or music events where we take our vintage ice cream van to sell our products from.
The role is based at our new home of the Broadland Food Innovation Centre in Honningham, Norfolk, including trips to meet shops and potentially occasional events. We also have the scope to offer some working from home.
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM US:
- Flexible working hours and patterns - we love working parents as much as our ‘FREERANGE chefs’ (a new policy we launched post lockdown which supports mental health and wellness and fights against burn out).

- Honest and reliable company who are committed to working as a positive and creative team in a friendly atmosphere.
