WANTED: Barista Market Developer Manager

Hello potential future Oatly employee. It’s us, the original oat drink company that started in Sweden back 25 or so years ago.

In the last few years, we’ve become a popular and pioneering dairy-alt global player. We're continuing to establish our presence internationally, determined on being part of the discussion on the long-term future of the food and beverage industry. With this growth, we need more brilliant minds to come work with us to keep the momentum going and the oat drink flowing.

We exist to make it easy for people to eat better and live healthier lives without recklessly taxing the planet’s resources in the process. If this resonates with you, then maybe you’d like work for Oatly, too. So, let’s get to the formal stuff.

Here is the role we are looking to fill: 

We're looking for a Barista Market Developer Manager.

As the No.1 dairy free alternative for baristas within specialty coffee, Oatly Barista Edition is kind of a big deal in the coffee world. We’re looking for the next leader to take ownership of the success and growth of this product. There's boundless ways this can be done, but at its core, you'll be:

• Leading and recruiting our team of Barista Market Developers (BMDs) to develop and execute the strategy for Oatly Barista Edition within the coffee scene in EMEA.
• Planning for and facilitating for the growth of the Barista team (as a collective and as individuals).
• Working with the Commercial and Brand teams to further the Oatly mission to reduce consumer reliance on dairy.
• Strategic responsibility for Oatly activations and promotions within the coffee industry.
• Identifying, creating and maintaining strong relationships which lead to mutually beneficially outcomes for Oatly and the top tier coffee shops.
• Using your unique personality and strong credibility to win over baristas, owners and investors.

WANTED: Barista Market Developer Manager

If the below sounds like you, you could be the ideal person for this job:

• You have solid experience within the specialty coffee industry with demonstrable commercial experience, and have been responsible for the growth of a channel within a business.
• You have at least 4 years' experience managing, leading and developing a team.
• Have a deep understanding of how the coffee industry works in the EMEA.
• You consider yourself a self starter who doesn't need much direction to get things done
• You're connected to our mission of health, sustainability and trust, and you love our products

… And here’s some other things that we think are part of an Oatly team member’s DNA

• You are already engaged with our brand and you love our products
• You feel connected to our mission of encouraging health, sustainability, and transparency
• You are a self-starter who doesn’t need direct supervision to motivate you for success – we believe strongly in building a culture of individual accountability and ownership and need partners that can embrace that mentality
• You are ready to make your mark with a pioneering brand, leveraging your experience to deliver amazing results and continue the success story of an outstanding company
• You have entrepreneurial spirit in that you’re comfortable with ambiguity and are energised by the process of building something lasting from the ground up
• You enjoy sharing your quirkiness and talents with your coworkers

Another bulleted list felt redundant, so we wrote this long sentence with all the ways we sweeten the deal to work with us, like providing really great benefits, genuinely great coworkers who want to see the company and each other succeed, a scale-up vibe with an established company history, and a fridge full of the best non-dairy alternative in the world for your enjoyment.
