Business Development

Overview

Are you passionate about coffee and love meeting new people? We have an exciting opportunity to join our Business Development team. We've been roasting speciality coffee for over 30 years. From humble beginnings as a little coffee cart in Auckland, NZ, Allpress has evolved into a sophisticated brand that stands for flavour and service. Right from the start three core principals have formed the backbone of our business - People, Flavour and Innovation. We are united in our genuine care for each other, our customers, and our belief in what we do. We need great people who will bring their imagination, skills and most importantly, their passion to our business.

Responsibilities

• Prospect and convert new coffee partnerships across London and the South UK.
• Qualify and convert inbound leads into long-term Allpress customers.
• Build strong relationships with cafés, bakeries, and hospitality venues-from independents to multi-site operators, adaptability is key.
• Champion our values by ensuring every partner represents Allpress quality.
• Deliver exceptional support to café partners, building meaningful, long-lasting relationships that are built on a shared vision of coffee excellence.
• Collaborate with our Technical, Training, Brand, Customer Experience and Roastery teams to ensure we are delivering on our promises.

Qualifications

• Hospitality or coffee industry experience; a sales background is a plus but not essential.
• Self-motivated, resilient, and excited by the challenge of winning new business.
• Ability to build rapport easily and communicate with confidence with people from all walks of life.
• Ability to navigate challenging conversations.
• Strong organisational skills and the flexibility to travel.
• Above all, a genuine passion for coffee and people.
• Whether you're a coffee professional ready to take the next step, or a hospitality salesperson eager to make your mark, this is an exciting opportunity to grow with us.
