| Our client is one of the leading International Brand Powerhouses within the Categories in which serves, operating across several branded areas they have an unquestionable appetite for success. Their 5 year plan is simple and yet immeasurably challenging, to transform the very way in which their Categories are “defined” and “shopped” by the retailer and consumer alike. The 2-3 year strategic goal is to succeed in the “elusive tightrope” of driving both Quantity & Value within their core offering, that will see their market dominance increase considerably. In order to achieve this they commit strong levels of investment into both People/Leadership Development and Leading Edge Commercial & Category solutions. However, alongside their Ground-Breaking customer delivery, their “key” differentiator is their Category & Commercial Leadership Team; and this is where you could make the difference. | |

In order to achieve you will take ownership of driving a “change agenda” both internally and externally to the business. Your short-term goals will be 2 years out, whilst long-term goals will be devised some 5 years into the future, hence the intellectual stretch you will experience will be unparalleled in your career to date. Working at close quarters with the UK GM, Marketing Directors and respective Divisional MD’s your plans will form the “Commercial & Category Compass” for the business to set its course. This role will be your building block to a 2-3 step career development curve with the business, which will ultimately see you reaching an Controller or Head of Role or a International Assignment within their Global Operation. Candidates will have ideally gained exposure to Commercial/Trading or Category/Trade Marketing within one of two channels- Leading FMCG Businesses or working directly for a UK Retailer. In doing so they will be at ease with operating in an intellectually tough environment, where results are driven via a “Strategic” approach. Finally the role requires a real “can do” mentality alongside a creative flair for solution focused thinking inside a Global corporate framework. |
