Join our growing Health & Nutrition business
At Engelhardt, we are looking for a commercially driven Sales Manager to help us expand our Health & Nutrition business unit. We assist consumer brand owners and food companies in developing products within food supplements, meal replacements, sports nutrition, plant-based nutrition, and functional foods. We support our customers all the way from concept and formulation to production, packaging, and launch.
Job description
As our Sales Manager, you will develop new customers and selected targeted accounts in Sweden and the Nordic region, while also supporting selected European growth opportunities.
