About the role

The business leads its category and is respected by all their retail customers.

So why are they looking for a category controller then?

The UK FMCG industry, one of the most competitive in the world, is also respected for its innovation and creativity.

To continue the leadership position, the senior team seek an account controller who will oversee the existing category function at a tactical level and develop in alignment with NPD, marketing and commercial teams, the strategic outlook for the next five years.

Your success will be delivered through the ability to manage multiple stakeholders, think strategically but deliver every day whilst developing an ambassadorial relationship with retail partners.

The business operates at a high pace, and punches above its weight, as such you’ll perform optimally if you enjoy running fast rather than sitting still, whilst thinking high rather than accepting mediocrity.

Interested?  Forward your updated CV and salary details to Paul Nyman Consultancy, specialists in FMCG recruitment, who are managing the project exclusively and will be conducting initial online interviews for the client over the next four weeks.
