  • Strong commercial awareness and a clear understanding of what drives profitable growth 📊
  • Energy, resilience, and the ambition to go further — and faster ⚡
  • Confident, adaptable communication skills that build trust and influence decisions 📣
  • If your journey so far has been driven by results, this could be the opportunity that takes it further. 🌟
Play a key role in our journey 
 
As a Business Manager, you’ll be trusted to lead growth across your own geographic region. Your journey with Bidfood will be about ownership, impact, and delivering results that matter. On a day-to-day basis, you will:

  • Turn customer challenges into smart, commercial solutions — strengthening relationships along the way 🔧
This is a role where you’ll be encouraged to think differently, act decisively, and take responsibility for your success. Not every journey is smooth — but how you respond is what sets you apart.
