We are seeking a COMMERCIALLY SAVVY SENIOR MANAGER to lead our company’s growth strategy and strengthen our presence within the hospitality sector, particularly across logistics, distribution, and support services. This is a key leadership role for someone ready to make a tangible impact in a business transitioning from founder-led operations to a more structured, corporate model.

- Collaborate closely with the outgoing MD and executive team during a 12-month handover period.
- Work alongside the Finance Director and Operations Director as part of the core leadership team.
- Develop and present performance reports to the Chairman.
- Represent the company at key industry trade shows, building brand visibility and new connections.
Candidate Profile:
- Minimum 10 years’ experience supplying the hospitality industry — ideally in services (logistics, transport, or distribution). Product experience will also be considered.
- Strong network and understanding of key industry role players and stakeholders.
- Proven success in B2B sales, marketing strategy, and account management.
- Demonstrated ability to build and maintain senior-level client relationships.
- Strong commercial acumen, with the ability to think both strategically and operationally.
- A hands-on leader, capable of driving initiatives while supporting long-term corporate growth.
- A degree in Business, Logistics, or Hospitality is advantageous.
