VP Sales, North America

Myprotein | THG Nutrition

Base location: Lower Manhattan, New York

Myprotein is the world's largest online sports nutrition brand and the flagship of THG Nutrition & Wellness. We exist to break boundaries, to power and empower those who want more from their training, their nutrition and their lives.

We want to be the world's most empowering health movement, championing everyone to live healthier, more active lives. We break conventions, we're a force for good, and we keep it real. These are the values that drive us through every day.

Everything we do is done in-house, from manufacturing and new product development to content creation, e-commerce, marketing and logistics. This means we're perfectly positioned to deliver on our vision and keep our place at the top of a fast-moving, global industry.

Based out of our USA office in Lower Manhattan, this is the senior-most sales leadership role for Myprotein in North America. Reporting directly to the CEO, the VP Sales owns the full North America sales strategy and P&L across every channel, from retail and grocery to club, specialty and online marketplaces.

This is a pivotal moment for the brand as it transforms from a DTC business into a true omnichannel player. We have already secured major listings with some of the largest retailers in the US and intend to expand across all major channels in the short to mid term. We are looking for a leader who can set the strategy, build the team and the structure to deliver it, and then drive flawless execution at pace.
