Background

About Aimie Walker

With over 18 years of experience in sales and marketing, I am a seasoned leader in developing and managing strategic partnerships with key customers and stakeholders in the hospitality, retail, and distribution sectors. I have worked with international brands such as Hotel Chocolat, Mamas & Papas, and Denby Pottery, increasing sales, revenue, and market share, as well as launching new products and services across different regions and channels. Most recently, as the Head of Sales and Partnerships, I was responsible for all category partnerships, setting sales strategy, leading large commercial negotiations, and managing a team of four. I achieved consistent growth within my account portfolio, delivered the launch of Hotel Chocolat into Waitrose and Deliveroo, and created a seasonal café pop-up within John Lewis Partnership. I have strong skills in new business development, sales and marketing strategy, negotiation, and communication. I am passionate about creating value for both my company and my partners, and delivering exceptional customer service and satisfaction. I am always looking for new opportunities and challenges, and eager to learn from diverse perspectives and experiences. I am a team player, a leader, and a problem solver, who thrives in a fast-paced and dynamic environment.
