We’re looking for a Technical Sales Officer who blends brewing know-how with customer charm. This role is perfect for someone who loves fermentation, food science, and translating product features into practical client wins. You'll bridge the lab and the boardroom — all while sipping success.
You’ll love this role if you:
Get excited by brewing trials and geeking out on product specs
Enjoy client interaction and the thrill of solving real production problems
Have a curious mind and love blending R&D with market needs
Like being hands-on with both technical performance and sales follow-ups
Thrive in cross-functional teams (quality, finance, procurement, production)
You’ll struggle in this role if you:
Prefer working behind-the-scenes with minimal client interaction
Get overwhelmed by balancing technical work and sales targets
Struggle with documenting or reporting product trial outcomes
Don’t enjoy continuous learning or product experimentation
Aren’t comfortable getting into the details of brewing or lab environments
What You’ll Do:
Conduct product trials and ensure compliance with brewing & food-grade standards
Support order generation, follow-ups, and client satisfaction
Troubleshoot brewing or food production issues — be the go-to problem solver
Collaborate with R&D and contribute to new product formulations
Prepare technical documentation and support audits or compliance checks
Train teams on quality, safety, and brewing systems
Liaise with procurement and finance on orders, inventory, and materials
What You’ll Need:
Degree/Diploma in Brewing Science, Food Science, Microbiology, Biochemistry, or Chemical Engineering
Bonus points if certified in HACCP, ISO 22000, or IBD
Experience in brewing, food manufacturing, or lab/quality roles
Familiarity with hygiene protocols and food/beverage regulations
Bonus if you’ve worked with local raw materials or indigenous brewing methods
