PepsiCo UK is home to some of the world's most loved food and drink products. Making every day favourites like Walkers Crisps, Tropicana and Quaker Oats, we have a fantastic reputation for developing and launching products that our consumers love. We pride ourselves on being a great place to work and have recently been voted a Top Employer for the seventh year in a row!

Our Commercial teams are passionate, driven individuals, with a genuine lust for learning and development! They work hard and achieve great success individually and as part of a strong team. If you thrive on personal challenge and development then it's a great environment to work in.

As a channel within PepsiCo, our Away From Home channel is arguably one of the most exciting! With 16% of all 'on the go' occasions happening within the AFH market we have so many opportunities to explore innovative ways and places to sell our products!

We've ramped up our resource and capability within the team and are looking to hire an Account Controller to help us truly unlock the potential and win in the white space across our portfolio. This is a pivotal role in delivering transformational growth!
