Seafood Sales Manager – Wholesale (Ireland)

This role is firmly aimed at people who already work in the seafood trade. If you are currently selling seafood, have done before, or come from a fish merchant or distributor background, this will make immediate sense.

We are working with a well‑established pan‑European food business with a serious seafood offering and a long track record in the market. They are well run, commercially switched on, and quietly investing in growth across Ireland. No big corporate noise, just a business that knows what it is doing and backs its people.

The role is remote, but you must be based in Ireland. You will be trusted to run your territory properly and build long‑term relationships, not just chase short‑term wins.

What You’ll Be Doing

You will be selling a quality seafood range into distributors, fish merchants and wholesale customers across Ireland. This is a relationship‑led role where credibility matters. You will grow existing accounts, open new ones, and spend your time with customers who know their fish and expect you to know yours. You will manage your own diary, plan your activities, and work closely with internal teams on pricing, forecasting, and customer strategy, while very much owning the Irish market day-to-day.

What We’re Looking For

·       This is not a role for someone learning seafood from scratch. You will already understand species, formats, margins, and how the seafood trade really works.

·       Proven experience selling seafood to distributors, wholesalers, or fish merchants is essential.

·       You’ll have existing relationships or strong credibility within the trade and be comfortable dealing with experienced buyers.

·       Confident managing your own territory, time, and pipeline in a remote role, without the need for micromanagement.

·       Commercially minded, with the ability to spot opportunities and turn conversations into long‑term business.

·       Comfortable working collaboratively with internal teams on pricing, forecasting, and customer plans.

·       Based in Ireland, with a full driving licence and happy to travel as required.

The Package

Circa €60k base salary, plus bonus and benefits. A sensible package for someone who knows the trade and wants autonomy.
