About Us:

We are a rapidly growing supplement company focused on providing clean, high-performance pre-workout supplements to a health-conscious market. Founded by a serial entrepreneur, this business is a passion project developed over the past year, targeting 25-35-year-old fitness enthusiasts who value quality and transparency in their supplements.

With the foundation now laid, we are ready to scale, and we are looking for a General Manager to join our small but dynamic remote team and help drive the company’s growth.

 

The Role:

As the General Manager, you will be instrumental in driving the growth of the business. Reporting directly to the founder, you will be responsible for overseeing the day-to-day operations, sales, and scaling the brand. Your remit will involve managing the small remote team, streamlining operations, and implementing strategies to increase sales and brand presence.

This is a unique opportunity to become a pivotal part of a rapidly growing company. The role offers fast progression to Director level and includes an equity share of 20%, ensuring that you have real ownership and share in the success of the business.

 

Key Responsibilities:

  • Business Growth: Develop and execute strategies to scale the brand and drive revenue growth in the UK market and beyond.
  • Operations Management: Oversee all operational aspects of the business, ensuring efficiency and smooth day-to-day operations.
  • Team Leadership: Lead, motivate, and manage a remote team of three across the UK. You will ensure collaboration, performance, and alignment with company goals.
  • Sales & Marketing: Work closely with the founder to develop and execute sales strategies and marketing campaigns that resonate with the 25-35-year-old target audience.
  • Brand Development: Enhance the company’s brand presence in the competitive supplement market by identifying new growth opportunities and ensuring consistent messaging.

  • Product Development Input: Collaborate on product improvements and innovations in line with customer feedback and market trends.
  • Performance Reporting: Monitor, report, and improve key business metrics, using data to make informed decisions on strategy and execution.

 

About You:

We are looking for a motivated and entrepreneurial-minded individual who is ready to take on the challenge of scaling a start-up business. You should be commercially savvy, with experience in scaling brands, operations management, and driving sales. Experience within the supplement, health, or fitness industries is advantageous but not essential.

  • Excellent leadership and team management skills, especially within a remote setup.
  • Entrepreneurial mindset with a passion for health, fitness, and clean living.
