Job Details
A rare opportunity to join a highly successful brand early in their UK growth strategy.
This major international branded business is looking to grow and develop their growth strategy across UK and Europe. Over the last five years they have experienced phenomenal growth in a multi-category range of chilled and ambient food and drink products thanks to major innovation and the on-trend nature of this ever-expanding sector.
This remit is clear to grow and develop the relationships with major Grocery Retailers across UK and Europe.
The business has already established themselves within the UK, and a manufacturing operation in Europe, and now want to capitalise on that success by expanding the commercial operation.
With an entrepreneurial ambition you will: -
Be well versed and have an outstanding track record of managing grocery retail accounts as a current National Account Manager.
It is essential that you can demonstrate experience of working with Senior Buyers and key stakeholders within Tesco, Sainsbury's, Morrisons, Asda or Waitrose.
You will have experience of blue-chip corporate brands within any food category.
The ideal person will be a "foodie" with a genuine interest in food and its nutritional values.
It will also help if you have a culinary, food science or food technology background and are engaged in a nutritional and active lifestyle.
In return you will of course be financially rewarded but, more importantly, you will be empowered to make decisions and genuinely impact the direction and strategy.
If this role matches your ambition please apply with your CV or get in touch with me to discuss in more detail.
