ORIVO is a food tech testing and verification company based in Molde, Norway. We are the only company in the world able to deliver origin guarantee of dietary supplements, pet food, seafood and animal-feed based on revolutionary laboratory testing. For more information, please visit www.orivo.no

With a solid foundation now established in Europe, North America, South America, and China, we are strengthening our commercial organization to support our next phase of growth. We are hiring a Sales Manager / Director to work alongside our existing sales and marketing team and contribute to expansion in selected territories. The role will be shaped by the experience of the candidate, ranging from supporting market development and account follow-up to taking on broader responsibility for sales execution, coordination, and day-to-day commercial leadership.

Who are you?

We're looking for an adaptable, team-oriented person with a competitive spark and a passion for working internationally. You enjoy being on the move, building relationships face-to-face, and meeting customers around the world. The right candidate is proactive, creative, and self-driven, with the structure and discipline to run complex, long-term sales processes. You're able to turn advanced laboratory test results into clear, compelling value for senior decision-makers. And you're excited by the mission to bring evidence-based transparency through origin verification programs to the world.

If you don't meet every qualification, we still encourage you to apply. We're focused on finding someone with the right attitude, energy, and potential. We can train for skills, but we can't train for ownership, curiosity and the drive to build something meaningful.

• Keep accurate, structured records of activities, meetings, and opportunities in HubSpot to support collaboration and decision-making

• Plan for and represent ORIVO at key industry trade shows, and travel extensively internationally to meet customers and partners 

Qualifications:

• At least 3 years of experience in sales with documented results

• Excellent English language skills. Additional relevant language skills will be a bonus

• Competitive attitude and well-organized way of working

• Ability to work independently by creating and following your own sales and marketing strategy but also to follow existing strategies as a team member

• Experience in human dietary supplements, pet supplements, pet food markets or other relevant business segments is a bonus 

ORIVO offers:

• An interesting and challenging position in an international entrepreneurial work environment
