We’re looking for a freelance salesperson with a passion for sustainability and sales.
Are you interested in sustainability, fair trade, circularity and the UNSGDs? Do you feel energized when talking to new people about meaningful things? Do you have experience in sales or think you could excel at it? If so, you might be the person we are looking for.
In 2019 the company Indo Naturals was founded in Norway with the mission of creating exciting and easily adoptable zero-waste products for sustainable everyday living. We wanted to deliver these products not only with the environment in focus, from raw material to delivered product, but also create social impact and empower marginalized people in rural India through the production. Creating a supply chain to achieve this was a huge challenge. However, it resulted in a system providing the ability to source various fair trade and eco-conscious products in an effective, transparent way through fair trade monitoring and impact measuring. After creating this we saw the opportunities for contributing to creating impact also outside of our own brand.
In 2021 we started working on expanding our model to also source products for other companies. This model is called Source For Future and has an aim to give the market access to easily create environmental and social impact with exciting product stories, and impact measuring. After a few pilot projects, it’s now time to take our solution to the EU market and start creating change!
With the support of our supply chain system and sustainability reports managed by our operations team, you will have the task of showing EU and UK B2B buyers all the amazing opportunities there are to empower people, reduce pollution and create a more circular and transparent consumer economy through their sourcing.
As a part of the sales team, you get ownership to a number of potential buyers/leads in an industry that you are familiar with. You will research the leads, call from our cloud-based calling system, send email catalogs, and follow up. The position is highly flexible and you are compensated based on the sales income. This means that you can sit anywhere and work when you want and how much you want as long as your contacts are followed up on a regular basis. The digital system traces the sales so you can easily see how much your client has bought from us.
