Location: London

Background

This is a brilliant business to be part of. They are shaping the wider category and growing at an unprecedented rate, both in the UK and internationally.

Working closely with the Commercial Director and Business Unit Head, you will take ownership of some of the Top 4 Grocery Accounts. This role is not just about managing relationships – it's about driving growth! Opportunities for their products are everywhere, and your natural curiosity and tenacity will help you succeed.

However, success also requires setting robust and innovative strategies and being relentless in executing them.

You will receive support from various teams, including Brand, Insight, Category Data, and Shopper Campaigns – emphasizing the collaborative environment.

Opportunity

The company has experienced phenomenal growth in recent years, with turnover increasing more than four-fold. Their trajectory shows no signs of slowing down.

This success is driven by increased distribution, award-winning new products, and changing consumer behaviors. The dedicated commercial team plays a significant role in this achievement.

In line with their plans, they seek talented, well-trained, and ambitious individuals eager to make an impact.

About You

You should understand the landscape well, constantly generating ideas and eager to see them realized. You strike a balance between being a team player and an innovative pioneer.

Exceptional relationship-building and networking skills are essential, but you must always keep the end goals in mind. Combining a structured, process-driven approach with entrepreneurial flair is key.

Experience in a high-growth environment is advantageous. If you currently work for a major UK FMCG company and feel there is more to achieve, this opportunity is for you. Make your training count!

It is crucial that you have experience working with accounts within the Grocery Retail Estate, such as Tesco, Morrisons, Asda, Sainsbury's, Waitrose, M&S, etc. Without this experience, making an impact will be challenging.
