Mowi Consumer Products UK Ltd is a fast-paced, exciting organisation operating in the Chilled Food industry and has a genuinely unique offering in the UK. We now have a truly exceptional opening for the right individual - this role presents an excellent opportunity to develop and grow our business with support from a superb facility with world class products. Based in Rosyth near Edinburgh you will be part of a large, properly resourced team and are a business in terrific growth and are looking to strengthen our private label sales team.

Facing into the major UK multiple retailers, the role will require working closely with the operations, our customers and maintaining close links with our European colleagues. 

Key Areas: 

In this role, you’ll be responsible for supporting the National Account Manager in developing and implementing a customer strategy, positioning Mowi Consumer Products UK Ltd as the supplier of choice in each of our categories.  You’ll have the opportunity to take the lead on building business proposals that secure new contracts and long-term customer relationships, and you’ll help us embed a commercial, client-service focused approach to all our processes and activities.

You’ll also have responsibility for proposing, gaining approval on, and delivering the budgeted sales plan (volume, turnover, margin & promotions) for your accounts, as well as ensuring you provide timely and accurate monthly sales forecasts.  It’s therefore vital that your head for figures is second-to-none.

We’re passionate in our belief that we’re all part of the same team, so you’ll need to be able to influence and challenge in a positive way both internally and externally – we’re part of a worldwide organisation with a great culture and we expect everyone here to contribute to that, both internally in the UK and with our colleagues from further afield; and externally as ambassadors for Mowi.   

We do expect hard work and commitment – you must perform well under pressure, deliver to deadlines and maintain high standards; and in return we offer a competitive reward package, a great place to work, and an opportunity to develop your career in a global, well-respected organisation.

  • Experience with a large manufacturing food business facing into major UK retailers (Fish, Protein or short-life chilled experience would be a significant advantage)
