Job Details
With a pioneering and truly innovative offering addressing an obvious gap in the healthy snacking arena, the business we represent is catching a lot of attention at the moment.
Having recently completed a second round of investment, they are about to embark on an ambitious growth plan, so have asked us to source a Non-Exec Director able to advise them around a key element of their commercial strategy.
Still very much in its infancy at this current moment, they plan to achieve scale via a subscription business model, at least to begin with.
We’ve therefore been asked to identify senior level candidates with strategic level experience, in branded, fast-growth businesses to support them on their journey.
It is essential that any applicant is able to demonstrate experience of driving scale within similar subscription business models.
The company is based in London, which is where you will be required when involved with board meetings etc.
Whilst the business is happy to agree a salary for the role, they are also open minded to offering a minimal equity stake to incentivise and adequately reward the successfully appointed candidate when they reach the stage of sale.
Interested parties should contact Rob Hawes for a discreet conversation.
Company
For over a decade now, Food Industry Associates Ltd have proven to be a recruiter of choice for ambitious SME food and beverage manufacturers across the UK. We don't recruit for the big corporates by choice. Instead, we choose to work with companies with personality, entrepreneurial flare (not process), looking to disrupt the market with cutting edge innovation to provide consumers with better, healthier choices.
Are you an early stage start-up struggling to find the right solution to help you gain your fist listings in a specific customer channel before you can raise the budget to employ somebody on a permanent basis? Maybe you know you need to source a commercial leader but aren't 100% clear in what format, or how to adequately incentivise somebody from a much larger business to join your mission? Come speak to us.
If you're a more established business looking to bring fresh talent on board to drive ambitious sales targets, source a creative innovator to help you drive in to new extended categories, or looking to strengthen in marketing / category terms, again, come speak to us.
We've a proven record in recruiting talent for an array of businesses, helping them source commercial talent to help them achieve their goals. From early stage sales talent through to equity-incentivised leadership roles, we've proven time and time again to find the right people for our clients at the first attempt.
How are we different to most of our competitors? Unlike most, we don't have as diverse a portfolio of clients we work with. However all those we do work with continuously come back to us whenever they next have another need. In our opinion successful recruitment is achieved when two businesses truly 'partner' and collaborate together. In our opinion the better we know you, the better we understand all the extra elements aside from simple skillset and experience to ensure the right 'fit' is identified at the first attempt. In our opinion, this is recruitment, done properly.
