Job description
A great opportunity for a street-smart sales professional who knows the KSA traditional trade inside out...
I’m looking for a Sales Officer – Traditional Trade (Roasteries, Wholesalers & Retailers) to join our growing team at Notions Group in Saudi Arabia.
� Locations: Riyadh & Jeddah, KSA
� Employment Type: Full-time (Field-Based)
What makes this role different?
This isn’t about pushing boxes into a store. It’s about owning your territory, building strong relationships with roastery owners, wholesalers, and retailers, and making sure CHOCODATE®, Arabian Delights, chocolates, and salted snacks actually sell out to the consumer. You’ll be out in the market, not behind a desk.
� Key Responsibilities:
- Territory & New Outlets: Cover your territory (A/B/C) with a structured PJP and open new outlets every month: roasteries, wholesalers, baqalas, mini-markets, nut & dates shops, and loose sellers.
- Orders & Seasons: Hit monthly targets across all brands and push the peaks (Ramadan, Eids, Hajj/Umrah, National Day).
- Credit & Collections: Negotiate within approved limits, COD for new accounts, collect on time, and keep overdues at zero.
- Sell-Out & Stock Health: Track rate of sale, secure shelf visibility, apply FEFO, and keep RRP/per-kg pricing right.
- Reporting: Daily SFA reports and monthly competitor price and scheme updates.
Who we are looking for:
- Education: Diploma or Bachelor’s in Business, Commerce, Marketing, or a related field (high school with strong experience considered).
- Experience: 3–5 years of KSA field sales in FMCG traditional trade, with a record of opening new outlets and hitting targets.
- Category: Experience selling to roasteries, nuts, coffee, dates, confectionery, or snacks outlets is strongly preferred.
- Network: Established relationships with roastery owners, wholesalers & retailers in Riyadh or Jeddah.
- Skills: Strong negotiation, credit control, and collections.
- Languages & Tools: Fluent spoken Arabic, working English, Excel, and mobile SFA apps.
- License: Valid KSA driving license and readiness for extensive field travel.
