About Lesaffre

Lesaffre sells yeast and what is made from it through separate business units, and its 36 sales-titled openings show most of them: baking yeast and bread improvers to craft and industrial bakers, Fermentis yeasts to brewers, winemakers and distillers, Phileo probiotics to feed manufacturers and farms, and Procelys yeast-based nutrients to biopharma, probiotic and renewable chemical producers. Baking is the largest block at about 15 openings: two Gebietsleiter in western and central Germany who must be master bakers or food technologists and run their own territory from prospecting through price negotiation to close, a national sales manager over the branches of Panadis, its Mexican bakery supply distributor, with route sellers in Tijuana and Cuautitlán Izcalli, industrial key account and export roles in Egypt and Algeria (the Egyptian export seat builds distributors for the Dosumaya brand across the Gulf), and a territory rep in Ethiopia. Phileo's ten postings near Lille are five jobs each posted in English and in French: a sub-region manager and an area manager for France and Switzerland who set targets for field teams, a strategic account manager for the large feed accounts across Europe, the Middle East, Africa and India, a biogas sales manager and a sales excellence manager. Asia adds a Procelys sales and marketing director for China and APAC in Shanghai, a hunter-profile Procelys sales manager in Kuala Lumpur covering Southeast Asia, Australia, New Zealand and Taiwan, a Fermentis area sales manager in Ho Chi Minh City and technical sales support for spirits makers in Tokyo or Mumbai. None of the openings is in the US: France holds 14, Mexico 4, Egypt and China 3 each, and the rest are spread over Germany, Algeria, India, Singapore, Japan, Malaysia, Vietnam and Ethiopia.
