Senior Commercial Manager
- cardiff, wales, United Kingdom
- £50 - £70 Per Hour
Job Description
Recruit into enough private label manufacturing businesses in FMCG and you notice the ones that attract the best commercial talent all have the same 5 things in common.
1) Customer Focus. Relentless customer focus and absolute clarity on this across all levels and in every function.
2) Clear Expectations. They set the bar high, and they're honest about it. Everyone knows what good looks like from day one. No vague expectations, no guessing games.
3) Low ego. The team is focused enough that titles matter less than getting the product out the door and the customer looked after. OTIF is king...
4) High Trust. The right tools, and a genuine commitment to the customer internally and then they get out of the way and let good people do their job.
5) Well invested. They keep it simple and spend money on good people and kit. You can't deliver for the customer if your machines are crap and you skimped out on the M&S Commercial Manager's salary and bonus.
As it turns out - that's the business I'm recruiting for.
A leading private label manufacturer in SW Wales, M&S is the customer.
Significant, ongoing investment in kit and the site
A track record of promoting from within.
They're looking for a Commercial Manager to sit at the centre of that customer relationship, building the plans, driving the promotional activity, staying close to the numbers, and making sure the team behind you delivers on what's been agreed.
You'll be on site or with the customer 1-2 days a week, the rest wherever gets the job done best.
If you want to work somewhere that sets a high bar, backs its people, and has already proven it promotes on merit then I'd like to talk to you.
Money is good.
