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 aims to give the business market access to impact products with a focus on impact measuring, and product storytelling. Read more on www.sourceforfuture.com
