The posting

Head of Grocery - Branded Food - London £Up to £110,000 + Car Allowance + Bonus etc

I'm currently working with a well-established branded food SME that's looking to appoint a Head of Grocery to lead its grocery channel.

This isn't a role where you'll spend all day in meetings. They're looking for someone who's happy to stay close to the customer, continue managing key grocery accounts and lead a small commercial team by example.

It's a business that's growing steadily, with strong brands, ambitious plans and a culture where people are trusted to get on with the job. You'll work closely with the senior leadership team and have a genuine say in the commercial direction of the business.

The role will involve:

  • Leading the UK Grocery channel and delivering the commercial strategy.
  • Managing a portfolio of key grocery customers.
  • Coaching and developing a small team of National Account Managers.
  • Negotiating JBPs, promotional plans and annual agreements.
  • Identifying new opportunities for growth across existing and new customers.
  • Working cross-functionally with Marketing, Supply Chain and Finance to deliver commercial objectives.

We're looking for someone who has:

  • A proven track record managing UK grocery accounts within branded FMCG.
  • Previous experience leading or mentoring a commercial team.
  • Strong commercial and negotiation skills.
  • A hands-on approach and the ability to balance strategic thinking with day-to-day account management.
  • Experience working in an SME, or someone who enjoys the pace, visibility and accountability that comes with a smaller business.

Package:

  • London-based (hybrid)
  • Up to £110,000 basic
  • Bonus
  • Car allowance
  • Competitive benefits package

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
