Developing new accounts; negotiating commercial & trading agreements, agreeing a supply chain process, compliance agreements and a penalty process, commercial over-ride agreements and commission proposals.

With strong financial and budget management understanding you'll bring a thorough understanding of the retail landscape and a proven track record of bringing products to market in this space and developing accounts to realise their full potential.
