The Advocate Group are proud to be partnered with Enco, part of Grace Foods UK – a leading name within world foods, with brands such as Nourishment and Dunn’s River.

This is a hands-on, field-based Area Sales Manager role where you’ll own your territory, manage key customer relationships and drive real commercial growth.

The role:

You’ll be responsible for managing an existing portfolio of customers, growing sales and ensuring payments are collected in line with agreed terms. It’s a well-rounded role combining account management, commercial delivery and in-market execution.

You’ll be trusted to run your area like a business.

Key responsibilities:

• Deliver sales and profit targets across your territory
• Manage and develop customer accounts and relationships
• Ensure timely payment collection in line with agreed terms
• Follow a structured journey plan and customer call cycle
• Plan, execute and review promotional activity
• Monitor competitor and market activity
• Provide monthly performance reporting
• Work cross-functionally with internal teams

How success is measured:

• Achievement of sales and profit targets
• Growth in distribution across your territory
• Strong payment performance (debtor days)
• Accurate reporting and record keeping

What they’re looking for:

You’ll ideally have 2+ years’ experience within FMCG sales (food & drink preferred), with a solid understanding of distribution and how to win in a customer-facing environment.

Strong organisation, commercial awareness and confidence managing your own accounts are key.

If you’re currently in a field sales, territory or account-based role and want more ownership, visibility and earning potential, this is worth a conversation.
