Head of Recruitment and Candidate Experience
Commercial Business Development Manager - Logistics and Supply Chain
Dublin-based | Hybrid Role | Permanent | Competitive Package
This is a high-impact commercial leadership role for a proven business hunter in logistics and supply chain. You’ll be the driving force behind revenue growth and strategic partnerships, ensuring chilled and ambient logistics contracts not only deliver but evolve.
Your focus will be on winning new business, maximising existing relationships, and hunting out opportunities that fuel ambitious growth across Ireland’s retail and consumer supply chain landscape.
This role suits someone commercially sharp, resilient, and energised by bringing on new customers and scaling operations.
Core Responsibilities
* Drive new revenue growth across chilled and ambient logistics partnerships
* Drive growth by securing new business and strengthening relationships with existing partners
* Own the commercial delivery and day-to-day management of key contracts
* Lead Quarterly Business Reviews, pricing discussions, and contract renewals
* Collaborate with operations and supply chain teams to ensure service excellence (OTIF, returns, fulfillment accuracy)
* Act as the commercial voice across warehousing and logistics delivery
* Spot, shape, and convert new opportunities in the Irish logistics and FMCG space
Requirements
* Proven track record as a sales hunter strong business development credentials in logistics, FMCG distribution, or supply chain
* Commercial leadership experience with chilled and/or ambient 3PL contracts
* Strong understanding of warehousing, temperature-controlled logistics, and last-mile delivery
* Experience negotiating with senior stakeholders (Supply Chain Directors, Procurement Leads, Heads of Logistics, Commercial Managers)
* Data-driven and commercially astute equally comfortable closing in the boardroom or problem-solving on-site
* Ambitious, with the resilience and drive to help double a business over the next 3–5 years
Why This Role Stands Out
This isn’t about maintaining the status quo it’s about building something big. In this role, you will:
* Influence commercial strategy at a national scale
* Own and grow high-value partnerships with leading retailers and consumer brands
* Work closely with senior leadership on aggressive growth plans
* Benefit from performance-driven incentives, including bonus and potential equity participation
* Shape how logistics excellence is delivered across Ireland
Package: Competitive base + uncapped performance bonus + equity potential
