We’re looking for a results-driven Business Development Manager to grow Vilgain in South England 🇬🇧. Your focus will be independent retailers, gyms, wholefood & speciality stores, and office supply partners – building a thriving network of accounts in one of Europe’s most dynamic markets.
This role is about hustle, relationships and results: you’ll be in the field every day, opening doors, nurturing independents, and reporting on your performance. Experience in FMCG or e-commerce sales is a plus, but what really counts is your ability to create opportunities and grow revenue.

Managing your region independently – with regular travel and face-to-face client visits.
What we’re looking for
Proven experience in independent retail / FMCG / fitness sales (e-commerce knowledge a plus).
Performance mindset
Strong communication and negotiation skills to win and keep partners.
Fluent English.
Valid UK driving licence + willingness to spend most of your time on the road.
Why Join Vilgain?

A team that’s fast, supportive, and results-driven.
