Job Description
Deliveroo is recruiting a full-time business development executive who works in the field around Reading and Bracknell. The job is hybrid, and the posting places it in the Greater London team. The hire joins the Regional UK and Ireland unit, which tracks results across the four UK and Ireland nations, from Brighton to Belfast.
The goal is to widen the local restaurant offer by onboarding new eateries in the territory. Working days involve researching and securing top-value restaurants, meeting independent owners face to face, and reaching out by phone, email and social networks to show what Deliveroo's platform can do for their business.
The executive takes charge of the full partner onboarding journey so joining is quick and simple for every new restaurant. Haggling over contract conditions and building partnership arrangements that suit both the venue and Deliveroo is a central part of the role. The job also requires close tracking of the local dining scene, noticing new food trends and knowing which brands residents favour.
Applicants need to have repeatedly won new business and hit demanding revenue targets. Strong commercial and bargaining skills, self-motivation and persistence are essential, as is the ability to work independently while spending much of the working week travelling to prospects. Clear communication with a wide range of owners is expected. Candidates must hold a current UK driving licence and have a car at their disposal. Familiarity with hospitality, food delivery or fast-moving online marketplaces counts in their favour.

- Source and sign up top-value restaurant partners across Reading and Bracknell
- Approach independent restaurants through visits, email, phone and social networks
- Oversee every stage of partner onboarding
- Bargain over contract conditions and partnership arrangements that suit both sides
- Develop local know-how on food trends and the brands customers prefer
Requirements
- Proven success winning new accounts and reliably meeting tough commercial targets
- Commercial judgement and bargaining skill to secure profitable, durable deals
- Driven, persistent and capable of working alone while meeting prospects in person
- Clear interpersonal skills for presenting product value to many kinds of business owners
- A current UK driving licence and a car at your disposal, essential for covering the region
Qualifications
- Familiarity with hospitality, food delivery or fast-moving online marketplace economics
