COLLEEN MOLONEY
GROUP CHIEF COMMERCIAL OFFICER
ABOUT.
I joined the business in April 2018 and delved into the wonderful world of Square Pie. Being a true foodie, I absolutely love my job - having the opportunity to help nurture, create and bring new brands to life whilst identifying and managing their perfect route market is the icing on the cake for me. I’m a real family person and I believe we have a great family ethos here at work. Our loyal and ever-growing customer base is testament to the way we work and how we operate.
EXPERIENCE.
I began my career in sales at age 18. I started in Cheese working for one of the UK’s leading manufacturers, it was there I gained exposure to and invaluable experience across all sectors, from wholesale and foodservice through to manufacturing and retail. I managed the company’s largest accounts and built up a fantastically loyal customer base, some of which are still with me today. After many successful years of working within the dairy industry, I moved away from food for an opportunity to join a global blue-chip company where I refined my sales strategy and benefitted from their corporate disciplines. I am absolutely passionate about our business, our brands and our products, what we do and the journey we are on. I fell in love with the sales profession because of the freedom, flexibility, and daily learning on offer. I have always been driven by the simple notion of, the more you put in the larger the reward. The truth is that good salespeople are focused on offering the best solution to a buyer’s problem and here at Beat we approach the sales process from the perspective of giving not getting. When you focus on serving others, people naturally want to do business with you. I learn something new every day, and I love that no two days in this business are ever the same. I am hooked by its never-ending challenges, constant engagement with new people, eliminating obstacles, handling complex decisions, and ultimately beating our competitors
PROUDEST MOMENT.
The day I picked up the keys to my first house! It was a feeling of great achievement and I’m proud to fly the flag for independent women… Good things come to those who don’t wait and work really hard for it!
PASSIONATE ABOUT.
I am a huge foodie and love nothing more than dining out at my favourite restaurants with family and friends, I appreciate great food and great company. I love shopping (too much!) and long walks in the country with my dog Fitz, especially when they end at a cute little coffee shop. I believe in treating others how you wish to be treated, being kind, gratitude and second chances.
