The organisation

This global organisation is a category leader in most of the countries it is listed. They have a fantastic team environment where every single team member is valued and their opinions matter. They have fantastic growth plans in place over the next year to help them get to the next level.

The person

  • Strong sales experience from FMCG food and you must have worked with the big 4 supermarkets
  • Excellent analytical skills
  • Previous experience of pulling together complex JBPs
  • Good stakeholder engagement skills and the ability to work with international colleagues
  • Experience of working in matrix structures
  • Good relationship building skills
