London HQ, hybrid working
Salary around £130,000, plus bonus, and full executive benefits package
Our client, a £700m UK subsidiary of a global branded food giant at £20bn, is on the hunt for an outright international export Champion, a subject matter sales expert with complete understanding of the customer universe and its workings in the FMCG industry - no other will do. You will be the visionary to design and lead exclusively new growth pathways in both current and uncharted territories across the world that will deliberately supplement volume distribution and market share, way beyond what mostly exists by way of grocery retail dominance in the UK.
- You are an undisputed sales expert with a reputation and relationships in Distributor led markets who supply Convenience, Wholesale and Foodservice sectors.
- You will create new distribution networks considered ‘white space’ and cunningly work out how to leverage the parent company’s existing global footprint.
- Nearly at the top of your sales game, one thing is for sure… you are on your way!
- You have the ambition to lead an iconic, brave new commercial thinking, with the backing of a portfolio of instantly recognised brands.
