Business Development Manager UK & Ireland (m/v/x)

Over deze functie

Stroomop, a division of RIKA, is a fast-growing Belgian company specialising in the distribution of premium wood, pellet and hybrid stoves. As the exclusive partner of RIKA, one of Europe's leading premium stove brands, we combine innovative technology, outstanding design and sustainable heating solutions.

Following a highly successful introduction to the UK market, we are ready to accelerate our growth. To support these ambitions, we are looking for an entrepreneurial business development manager UK & Ireland to become the driving force behind our expansion.

**Your challenge**

This is not a traditional sales role.

You will play a key role in building the future of RIKA across the UK and Ireland, developing long-term partnerships and expanding our network of premium dealers.

As the face of the brand in the region, you will help position RIKA as the preferred choice for customers who value design, innovation and sustainability.

* Representing RIKA at trade fairs, industry events and networking opportunities.
* Monitoring market developments and contributing to the long-term growth strategy.
* Working closely with the team at our Belgian headquarters.

**What we offer**

At Stroomop, you will not inherit a mature market. Instead, you will have the opportunity to help shape and grow one. You will join a dynamic and entrepreneurial company where initiative, trust and long-term thinking are highly valued.

In return, we offer:

* A challenging international role with significant autonomy.
* The opportunity to build a premium brand with strong growth potential.
* Support from an experienced and passionate team.
* A competitive remuneration package.
* The flexibility to work either as an employee or on a self-employed/freelance basis.
