For the love of the outdoors…
Our passionate Sales Representatives travel in one of our ‘Live Life on the Veg’ vans to popular country markets and busy high street locations to regional shows, striking up conversations with anyone and everyone about the wonderful fresh veg we lovingly grow and sell.
As a Riverford brand ambassador, you'll engage customers, guiding them to choose the perfect veg box that suits their needs, all while delivering outstanding customer service. Your enthusiasm and deep knowledge of our fresh, organic vegetables will leave them excitedly looking forward to their first Riverford veg box delivery, connecting them to the farm and the delicious produce we grow.
Flexibility and great interpersonal skills are the key to success. Due to the nature of the Sales Representative role, there will be early starts / late finishes, working across a flexible Monday to Sunday rota over a 5-day week with an emphasis on weekends. However, there’s plenty of fresh air and fun to be enjoyed, rewarded with great earning potential and no two days will ever be the same!
Perks of being a Sales Representative for Riverford…
If you love the outdoors, striking up new conversations, great teamwork, and veg, this is a great role for you! Fantastic earning potential – we believe in offering great rewards for a job truly well done. The commission is uncapped so it's certainly a role where the more you put in the more you get out! We provide on-the-farm sales team training and ongoing support out and about in the role. We love food and hope you do too, so we give our co-owners 30% off everything we sell on our website together with an abundance of free organic fruit and veg!
We’d love to hear from…
Naturally friendly, approachable individuals with confidence and charisma. Supportive team players who are motivated by achievable targets and rewards. All applicants must hold a full UK manual driving licence and be experienced drivers as you'll be having many adventures in one of our 'Live Life on the Veg' vans!
Application Process - We'll be reviewing applications throughout the duration of the advert and may choose to bring the closing date forward; therefore, we'd encourage you to apply sooner rather than later. The interview process has 2 to 3 stages, beginning with virtual interviews and ending with an on-site meeting with the sales team. This final stage provides an opportunity to experience Living Life on the Veg firsthand! We aim for this process to be not only enjoyable and insightful but also a true reflection of Riverford’s values.
