Job Details
Our client, part of a major food group and a supplier of ambient branded food to both wholesale and retail is looking for a Commercial Director to join their team and develop their business, with, due to retirement, a view to becoming managing director within a year.
Ideally you will have experience of working within the ambient branded food industry, however it is not a prerequisite - they just want someone who is commercially astute, a natural team leader with a track record of driving growth whilst maintaining gross and net profits.
It is likely that you are either an established general manager or you are a commercially based senior manager, used to managing and leading teams and used to contributing at a senior level from a strategic perspective. Overall you should be assertive, a good presenter and negotiator with strategic, tactical and operational skills.
This is going to be an interesting and challenging role, as the business has plenty of opportunities for growth and so not only will they need a first rate senior commercial manager, but someone with strong people and leadership skills combined with an analytical and strategic mindset.
It will probably appeal to you if you are currently in a senior commercial position but want to extend your range of skills in to something more general, as there will not only be the normal commercial management duties, but other areas to control and influence such as logistics, team management and product flow in to and out of the business.
This is a great job in a fast moving business for a talented and ambitious commercial professional who wants to take an already successful business and develop it further.
The salary is likely to be circa £70k-£80k + bonus + executive package.
