The Role

Are you a high-performing FMCG Field Sales professional ready to take the next step with a globally recognised brand?

At Imperial Brands, we’re looking for a confident, commercially minded Regional Field Sales Executive to join our industry-leading team in Ireland. This is an exciting opportunity to step into a well-established territory, build on existing relationships, and deliver real commercial impact from day one.

Why this role?

This isn’t just another field sales job. You’ll be joining a high-calibre, supportive team with strong, long-standing relationships across convenience, wholesale, and independent retail channels. You’ll have the autonomy to manage your territory while being backed by the tools, training, and scale of a global FMCG leader.

If you thrive in a fast-paced environment, enjoy owning your results, and want to be recognised and rewarded for your performance - this is your opportunity.

At Imperial Brands, we invest in experienced people. You’ll join a collaborative, supportive sales team backed by a global FMCG organisation of 25,000 employees. You’ll receive structured support, ongoing coaching, and access to tools that enable you to perform at your best—while still giving you the autonomy expected at this level.

This is a field-based role, and you will need to be able to travel to your customers sites across Cork, Tipperary, Dungarvan and surrounding areas. You will ideally live in North Cork to make it easier to travel to your customers sites.

All candidates must hold a valid Full driving licence.
