Impact Food Group
At Impact Food Group, we’re more than just a school caterer. We’re on a mission to create a positive food culture and help more students enjoy healthier, better-quality food. Making a positive social impact is at the heart of everything we do. We’re constantly learning, evolving, and improving — every way, every day.
Through our industry-leading brands — Innovate, Dolce, Hutchison, Cucina, and Chapter One — we cater for over 800,000 students and operate in more than 1500 schools nationwide, growing every year.
We’re now looking for a talented and highly organised B2B Lead Generation Manager to join and play a vital role in supporting our business.
Guided by our values, integrity, bold, impactful, humble and community; you will help us shape a workplace and culture we can all be proud of.
Impact Food Group is looking for an experienced and commercially focused B2B Lead Generation Manager to build and manage a high-performing lead generation programme that supports our continued growth.
The role will create a consistent pipeline of qualified school leads for our Sales teams across two business propositions.
This is a hands-on role for someone who already understands B2B lead generation and can bring expertise, ideas and best practice into the business. You will set the strategy, select the right channels and partners, deliver campaigns, track performance and continually improve the quality and volume of leads generated.
Role Responsibilities:
Skills & Experience

- Identify target audiences, priority segments and prospect opportunities across schools, Trusts and the wider education sector.
- Work closely with Sales to understand priority markets, contract opportunities and target accounts.
- Manage or oversee PPC campaigns, particularly Google Search and other appropriate B2B channels.
