About the role
Location: Munich
Want to rethink food? At yfood, we’ve been making delicious food accessible every day since 2017 – balanced, practical, and truly tasty. With our products, we've created our own category: Smart Food. We operate across Europe, are growing rapidly, and are always looking for new ideas. If you want to become part of a dynamic team that is revolutionizing the food industry, yfood is the right place for you.
Passion – We burn for what we do. Full of energy, full of optimism, always hungry for more
Responsibility – For us, that means: supporting each other, taking responsibility, and giving our all when needed
Professionalism – We take our work seriously – but we don’t take ourselves too seriously. We are open, direct, and always on an equal footing. No bullshit, no ego. Just the team
Innovation – We prefer to think "Why not?" instead of "It’s always been done this way." We love new ideas, unconventional paths – and we never stand still
Responsibilities
As a Regional Sales Lead at yfood, you are responsible for the success of your region. By managing your team, you ensure the optimal distribution and placement of our products, and you develop measures together with sales colleagues to ensure maximum success for yfood. With your feel for people, you train and develop your team into real sales stars.
Your tasks as a Regional Sales Manager Retail
The success of your region depends heavily on you, as does the seamless implementation of an ambitious sales and marketing strategy in the markets
In close cooperation with your National Sales Director and colleagues, you develop ideas and measures to maximize the potential of your sales area and ensure their seamless implementation in your region
You enjoy managing your team through regular reporting, briefings, and meetings. To do this, you use the advantages of personal as well as digital communication with your sales representatives
You develop your team to peak performance through regular interviews, training, and on-the-job coaching to achieve your goals
In close cooperation with your National Sales Director and colleagues, you develop ideas and measures and ensure their seamless implementation in your region
You manage the expansion of distribution and enable your team to increase sales of our products through sales promotion measures. In this way, together with your team, you ensure a strong brand presence of yfood at the point of sale and sustainable market success
You work with key decision-makers in your region and collaborate closely with our Key Account Management to achieve individual customer goals
Requirements
You have many years of relevant professional experience and ideally have worked as a sales representative in the food retail (LEH) sector yourself
In your previous positions, you have gained at least 2 years of experience in leading sales representatives in the LEH and enjoy continuously developing your employees
Your strengths include your communication skills and your confident demeanor with key decision-makers, and you always know how to get your team on board
Thanks to your affinity for numbers, you always keep an eye on the internal and external KPIs in your region, but also strive to be close to the market situation (e.g., trips with sales representatives and inventory checks)
Challenges motivate you, so you always approach problem-solving creatively
You have the drive to make a difference and are eager to contribute to yfood’s success in the coming years
Working with a CRM system is child's play for you, and you are proficient in MS Office
Benefits
We promote equal opportunities and value diversity. We strive to create an inclusive environment for all employees
yfood is growing internationally: while Germany is our "home base", we have created a dynamic and diverse environment through our international markets, where many exciting topics await you
Downtime is important. That’s why you get 30 days of paid leave per year with us
yfood supports your fitness. With a subsidized EGYM-Wellpass membership, you can take care of yourself for just €29 per month. Within our Health Management & Healthy@yfood program, we offer workshops and activities (e.g., yoga, breathing exercises, football, pickleball)
Doing good together. Through our yforgood Day, you get one paid day off per year to support a social, charitable, or environmental initiative together with your team
Moving places. We provide you with a company car, including for private use, and offer you the option of a job bike leasing through JobRad
Train your taste buds. You have as much yfood as you can carry, free of charge of course. So try out new products, varieties, or flavors
Come as you are. Whether in a suit or a unicorn onesie. We have no dress code
