  • Commercially astute with P&L accountability 
  • An influential communicator across all levels 
  • Agile, resilient, and solutions-focused mindset – the ability to work effectively under pressure 
  • The skills to balance structured leadership with flexibility, and teamwork

  • Competitive salary with bonus and full company benefits
  • 27 days' annual leave plus bank holidays, your birthday off, and a holiday purchase scheme
  • Healthcare & wellbeing: Aviva Digicare, Medicash (dental, optical, therapy treatments)
  • Mental health support: 24/7 Employee Assistance Programme
