It’s seems to be either you’ve not installed the bench or you’ve uninstalled it.

Solution:

Clone bench repo from github GitHub - frappe/bench: CLI to manage Multi-tenant deployments for Frappe apps bench-repo if don’t have the cloned repo.

Then Install it using sudo pip install ./bench-repo for global env and ./env/bin/pip install ./bench-repo for virtual env(Don’t forget to reactivate the virtual env after bench installation)
