My Client is a leading global FMCG organisation and due to unprecedented growth, are now looking for a National Account Manager to join the Business. This is a gem of an opportunity for a number of reasons 1. The Brands- iconic, recognisable brands 2. Their growth over the last 2 years- incredible ! double digit turnover in all categories ! 3. The people in the business- Ben the Country Manager- is a great guy ! Some of the NAM’s have been with the business for over 10 years plus- due to culture ; being treated with respect and given autonomy to make the role their own- and there is great support from the UK team as well.
I had a really good meeting with Ben- ( he is a gent- a really good guy- who puts his team first) integrity and an ethical approach are important traits for him- and he said “ Denis as you know we have tight knit Irish operation with circa 20 people in the business- but we work collaboratively and genuinely we all get along .There is also a lot of interaction with our UK hub too. This is a newly created role as one of the team is stretched in his role and I am looking for someone to come in and take hold of the Convenience and Forecourt channel- and essentially treat it like their own min business. We are doing well- gained market share but there is so much opportunity / white space in the channel that we are not exploiting, and I am looking for someone who is the voice for the channel, come with ideas, energy; can think strategically as we are thinking long- term- and for this person, along with input from myself, to create a 3 year plan for the channel.”
For this role, you must have 3- 5 years FMCG experience at a NAM level- Full bonuses are regularly paid out – I cannot speak any more highly of Ben and the culture that he has created ( I placed a Shopper Marketing Manager in the Business over 2 years ago and he is really enjoying the role/the business and said “ I really enjoy working here Denis as Ben gives us a lot autonomy and we are all given a lot of freedom to put our own stamp on our respective roles.” NB- please only apply to this role if you live in Ireland and have the required experience.
