This is a high profile position which requires a highly capable commercial operator to take responsibility for a significant part of the UK turnover.

The Business

Operating within a fast moving food category, my client is currently in the midst of an exciting growth surge. Operating across 3 main categories, Grocery Retail, Multi - Channel and International, the company is the UK arm of a Global Company that has a T/O in the region of £350m.

The Role

The position as Business Unit Controller has come about through internal promotion to another part of the business and the individual coming aboard will be expected to step up into the Head of Sales position, potentially within 24 months - dependent on performance. Therefore you must be familiar with developing complex joint business plans and influencing the major supermarkets at a senior level. This is a high profile position which will pull upon all your commercial acumen and take you out of your comfort zone on a daily basis. You will be supported by an award winning sales support function that have grown retailer listings quickly and profitably.

The Person

To be considered for this exceptional opportunity, you will be able to display a strong track record within the Fmcg Food or Drink sector with significant Top 4 Grocery Experience to at least a SNAM level. You will have ideally come from a well recognised food business managing a team of commercial or marketing individuals. The financial package on offer is designed to attract the best in the market with the opportunity being well suited to Snam/Nac who has been identified on a fast track development programme or global talent pool.

My client has a track record of investing in its people and will therefore encourage you to develop your skill set to the next level whether you enter from a Snam or Nac level.
