Job Description

As one of the fastest-growing beverage brands in the UK, MOJU's on a mission to help people live with more mojo, powered by nature's most potent and nutritious ingredients

Just like our nutrition-boosting shots, our company relies on a unique blend of ingredients to really hit the spot.

We are collectively a bunch of people who focus on positive action; we are passionate about our products, people and the planet. We've got big plans for the future to become the UK's favourite and freshest way to kickstart start the day and our people have big ideas for their futures too.

What we're looking for

At MOJU, we are obsessed with the quality of our fresh ingredients. As we continue building closer relationships with the growers and farmers behind them, we are looking for a Responsible Sourcing Manager to help lead the next stage of that journey.

This new role will own long-term partnerships with growers and exporters across developing markets, ensuring a consistent supply of high-quality ingredients while balancing commercial performance with strong ethical sourcing and sustainability standards.

Based in the UK, the role includes some international travel and reports into the Supply, Operations & Impact Director.

Responsibilities of the role include:
  • Own relationships with growers and exporters across global sourcing regions
  • Lead commercial negotiations on pricing, volumes, quality and contracts while building strong long-term partnerships
  • Ensure reliable year-round supply through forecasting, planning and supplier management
  • Identify and onboard new suppliers aligned to MOJU's ethical sourcing standards
  • Work closely with our co-manufacturer to review and implement ingredient pricing
  • Monitor supplier performance across quality, service, cost and compliance
  • Conduct supplier visits and proactively manage supply chain risks including weather, crop and logistics challenges
  • Uphold responsible sourcing, traceability and supplier compliance standards
  • Drive improvements across sourcing efficiency, quality, waste and yield
  • Identify opportunities to better support farming communities and reduce environmental impact
  • Stay current on responsible sourcing best practice, legislation and certification standards
Who you are
  • Experience in sourcing, procurement or supply chain, ideally within fresh produce or agriculture
  • Strong commercial and negotiation skills, with a partnership-led approach
  • Experience working with international suppliers and complex supply chains
  • Strong understanding of forecasting, planning and supply chain risk management
  • Passionate about ethical sourcing, sustainability and responsible procurement
  • Understanding of standards such as GlobalGAP and SMETA
  • Strong relationship-building and communication skills across cultures
  • Proactive, organised and someone who takes ownership and gets things done
  • Spanish language skills are a bonus, but not essential
Job requirements

Our people We're all sorts of people from different backgrounds, with all kinds of interests and passions and approaches to life. It's that diversity that makes us stronger as a business and makes MOJU greater than the sum of its parts.

We're committed to hiring diversely. We encourage members of underrepresented groups to apply to this role. Once you've applied, we've developed a hiring process where candidates are judged on their unique talents and aptitude, not their identity. This includes how we rate all candidates against the same criteria.

And remember, just because you don't tick all the boxes on the requirements for the role, we still want to hear from you if you think you can make a big impact with us.
