Paris, Île-de-France Vilgain s.r.o. Temps plein
Business Development Manager - France Strategic Market Entry & Growth

Vilgain is a premium European nutrition brand dedicated to the "Quality First" philosophy. By bridging the gap between uncompromising nutritional profiles and exceptional taste, we have established ourselves as a dominant "lovebrand" in Central Europe. As we execute our international expansion strategy, we are seeking a high-caliber Business Development Manager to spearhead our entry into the French market.

This is a high-impact, greenfield opportunity. You will be responsible for building our French presence from the ground up, with the autonomy to shape the market strategy and the potential to scale into a senior leadership role as the region expands.

Strategic Market Development:

  • End-to-End Market Acquisition: You will identify, negotiate, and secure high-value partnerships across the primary French B2B pillars: Retail, Distributors, E-commerce, or HORECA.

  • Strategic Positioning: Adapt the Vilgain value proposition for the sophisticated French market, ensuring our premium branding resonates with local distributors and professional category managers.

  • Operational Intelligence: Serve as the primary liaison between the French market and our global HQ, providing data-driven insights on competitor landscape, pricing elasticity, and consumer trends to optimize our regional portfolio.

  • Performance Excellence: Manage the full commercial cycle—from prospecting to contract finalization—while consistently meeting and exceeding strategic growth targets.

Your Profile:

  • FMCG Expertise: A proven professional background in the Food & Beverage industry.

  • Market Knowledge: Extensive experience navigating the French business landscape, with a deep understanding of local commercial practices, negotiation styles, and existing networks within Retail and HORECA.

  • Entrepreneurial Mindset: The ability to operate independently in a "zero-to-one" environment. You are a self-starter who excels at building commercial structures where none previously existed.

  • Communication Mastery: Professional fluency in both French and English. You possess the gravitas to negotiate at the executive level and the ability to articulate a complex brand vision.

What We Offer:

  • Direct Impact: The opportunity to lead a major market entry for a high-growth scale-up. You will be the architect of our success in one of Europe's most important food markets.

  • Product Integrity: A portfolio of clean-label, high-performance products that set a new industry standard for quality and transparency.

  • Autonomy & Support: A dynamic environment that prioritizes results over bureaucracy, offering the independence of a "business-owner" mindset with the full backing of our global B2B infrastructure.

  • Executive Compensation: A competitive package including performance-based bonuses, a professional development budget, and significant growth opportunities within the company hierarchy.
