UK Commercial Manager
Hybrid/London
Up to £70k (can flex beyond this), Bonus, 25 days holiday, great benefits package
Here’s a growth story worth your attention! This is a certified B Corp, FMCG challenger brand, currently growing year on year at 40-45%, and heading towards double-digit millions next year.
Join now and you're building the UK patch, primarily focussed on Grocery/Impulse. There's a clear route to Country Manager for the right person, with EU involvement on the table further down the line - that's based on ambition, capability and results, nothing else.
The practical stuff:
- £60-70k base (Can stretch a little here if needed)
- Generous bonus based on NET revenue growth, fair and realistic minimum hurdles, no cap on the upside
- 25 days holiday + bank holidays
- Hybrid/London 3 days
- International travel, likely 2-4 US trips a year
- Work remotely abroad for 2-4 weeks a year (if desired)
- A real chance to shape the business rather than just sit inside it
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What you'll be up to
Day to day, you'll be owning and growing UK retail relationships across channels, landing new listings, and building account plans grounded in real data. It's a small, hands-on team, so expect to flex your style and pitch in wherever's needed. In your first six months you'll need to properly understand what category growth means for this business, push hard toward the growth incentives, and show you can own the UK market.
About you
You'll be an experienced and ambitious NAM/SNAM who's worked across multiple accounts and channels (inc Grocery, Impulse), commercially sharp, analytical, and happy making calls without perfect information in front of you. You should be at ease in a small team where job titles matter less than getting things done, and resilient enough to hold your own in a fairly volatile grocery market. Challenger/Start up/SME experience very much welcomed!
