We are currently seeking two Regional Business Development Representatives to lead on FairWild business growth in key regions (North America and Europe). We are seeking highly motivated professionals to build upon our existing industry engagements and propel the Foundation into the next phase of growth.

The role of the Regional Industry Representatives encompasses advancing the industry growth objectives of the FairWild Foundation, aligning with the overarching strategic goals.

  • Grow the pipeline of potential FairWild clients (collection operations, traders/processors, brands and retailers) from these key sectors via engagement at industry events and one-to-one engagement.

  • Convert existing and new industry leads to clients (certified or registered businesses).

  • Support the expanded FairWild involvement of current clients (e.g. adding new species to their certificate, incorporating additional FairWild ingredients into their product ranges, using the FairWild label on additional products).
