Rollover Ltd

• Business Development Executive

  • Apr 2006 - Jan 2011

  My first real sales job, I enjoyed a near 5 year career at Rollover - "the best hot dog in the world" The role started purely as new business, identifying venues across the UK and demonstrating this brilliant fast food concept. As well as selling product in - sausages, bread, sauces, disposables - we also loaned in equipment and POS. The company was sold to investors Piper, who introduced a regional structure and modified the role to encompass both new business and account management. Our team regularly earned quarterly commission and a breakthrough in the Convenience Retail sector as well as the impressive Cineworld contract allowed the business to really grow. A hands-on role, I was involved in over 20 major catering exhibitions in the UK & Ireland and trained multiple groups of staff. I developed accounts by bending over backwards to make things work. A truly enjoyable role with a unique company. Show less
