Are you obsessed with food? Always on the hunt for the next big flavour? Keen to build a career in the buzzing world of media and brand partnerships? This could be your dream first role.

Great British Chefs, the UK's leading premium food website, is on the lookout for an ambitious, enthusiastic and food-loving Business Development Representative to join our dynamic, growing team. This is the perfect opportunity for someone at the start of their career who’s hungry to learn, make connections, and play a key role in shaping how the country’s top food brands connect with our foodie audience.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Starting conversations with amazing food and drink brands, from artisan makers to household names. Introducing them to our membership platform, competitions and sponsorship opportunities.

• Building relationships with everyone from MOTH canned cocktails and Rathfinny sparkling wine to San Pellegrino, Heinz, Ooni, Unilever and more.

• Leading the charge on sourcing epic prizes, perks and gifts for our exclusive GBC Members’ Club – everything from luxury cookware to gourmet experiences.

• Collaborating closely with our content and marketing teams to open doors, pitch ideas and make fantastic partnerships happen.

What We’re Looking For

• A natural communicator with *some* experience in a fast-paced commercial, sales or marketing role (internships, part-time work or similar all count!).

• A huge passion for food, drink and the UK restaurant scene. You should be the kind of person who reads a menu like it’s a novel.

• Comfortable sending bold DMs, firing off a punchy email or jumping on a call to connect with exciting new brands.

• A curious, can-do attitude - you’re always asking the right questions and finding clever ways to get to "yes".

• Highly organised, detail-driven, and someone who loves ticking off a to-do list.

• Confident using LinkedIn, Instagram and other tools to track down and engage prospects.

Perks & Benefits

• A clear, supported path to grow within the business and media sales world.

• Quarterly cash bonus when targets are met.

• Hybrid working to keep things flexible.

• Childcare tax relief scheme.

• Free food samples… yes, really!

• Weekly socials and regular team outings (usually involving great food and drink).

• Work in a buzzing, foodie-first environment where your job is literally to talk about food.
