SBM Life Science recruiting new talent

Following the completion on 5 October of its acquisition of Bayer Garden, SBM Développement is beginning the initial phase of its investment into the new UK business by recruiting two new executives; a full-time sales representative for the South East and a new brand manager.  

 “Our vision for the new business is to become a worldwide leader for home and garden solutions, offering an innovative portfolio that will meet the evolving expectations of our customers,” explained Darren Brown, Head of SBM Life Science Limited.  “To realise this ambitious vision in the UK & Ireland market we will be increasing investment into our organisation to ensure we have the right resources and talent to expand”.  

“Growing our current business through developing our existing market leading brands – Baby Bio®, Phostrogen®, Toprose and Provado® - as well as leveraging the products and brands currently within the SBM stable will be core elements of our future growth.   As a result, we are expanding our marketing function by recruiting a new Brand Manager to help us drive growth momentum”.    

“It is equally essential for the new business to further strengthen our collaborative relationships with our garden centre partners.  As a firm commitment to this increased focus we are recruiting a full-time SBM sales representative dedicated to the South East region.”
