This is a fantastic opportunity to join one of the UK’s most innovative and exciting drinks companies.

With a growing range of juices, purees, syrups and mixers they already have excellent presence in the On-Trade and have recently expanded into the Grocery channel as well. They are now looking to recruit a talented National Account Controller to lead their On–Trade Route to Market team.  

As National Account Controller you will have ultimate P&L responsibility for the On-Trade Route to Market channel.
