About Us

At Powerforce, we’re powered by people, driven by partnerships, and united by a passion for growth. We help brands connect with shoppers and deliver brilliant execution that drives sales and measurable results. We’re on an exciting journey of transformation and expansion - and we’re now looking for a Growth Lead to help shape the next chapter.

The Opportunity

This is a brand-new, senior opportunity to drive organic growth and new business acquisition for Powerforce. Reporting directly to the Managing Director, you’ll lead our growth strategy - from designing winning proposals and marketing content to nurturing relationships and building a strong new business pipeline. You’ll be part of our Customer Leadership Team, working cross-functionally with marketing, operations, insights and finance to create compelling, commercially sound solutions for clients.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Lead proposals and bids - own end-to-end responses to RFIs, RFPs, and pitches, ensuring they’re on-brand, on-time, and commercially strong
• Create brilliant content - craft engaging sales materials, case studies, and presentations that bring Powerforce’s story to life
• Own CRM and reporting - maintain accurate records, track progress, and generate insight reports
• Activate campaigns - plan and deliver proactive marketing and new business campaigns to attract and convert prospects
• Build relationships - proactively connect with potential clients, attend relevant events, and keep Powerforce front of mind in our industry
• Champion continuous improvement - refine our growth processes, tools, and client engagement journeys

About You

You’re commercially savvy, creative, and naturally curious - someone who loves building relationships and turning opportunities into results.

You’ll also bring:

• Experience in business development, growth, or bid leadership (ideally in FMCG, retail or marketing environments)
• Excellent written and visual communication skills - you know how to tell a story that sells
• Confidence with proposal writing, CRM systems, and commercial pricing
• Strong organisation, attention to detail, and the ability to juggle multiple projects
• A collaborative, positive attitude and a mindset for growth

What’s in it for You

• Competitive salary with up to 36% performance-based bonus
• Car allowance
• 24 days holiday (increasing annually up to 29 days) + bank holidays
• Enhanced pension, life assurance, and family leave policies
• Access to Perkbox, Taste Card and other wellbeing benefits
• A genuinely fun, inclusive, and supportive culture where great work is recognised
