We usually respond within a week
Hello potential future Oatly employee. It’s us, the original oat drink company that started in Sweden back 25 or so years ago.
In the last few years, we’ve become a popular and pioneering dairy-alt player in the UK market. We're continuing to establish our presence here, determined on being part of the discussion on the long-term future of the food and beverage industry. With this growth, we need more brilliant minds to come work with us to keep the momentum going and the oat drink flowing.
We exist to make it easy for people to eat better and live healthier lives without recklessly taxing the planet’s resources in the process. If this resonates with you, then maybe you’d like work for Oatly, too. So, let’s get to the formal stuff.
The Role
We're looking for an Out of Home (OOH) Commercial Manager, who will drive forward Oatly's UK national foodservice trade. Somebody with an acute understanding of the high profile operators driving trend and real change through to the mainstream national players. This person will need to live and breathe foodservice!
Here's what you'd be doing on a day-to-day basis:
- Secure national distribution with QSR, Casual Dining and Workplace groups, leveraging trade marketing resource to activate accounts to a world—class standard.
- Plan, negotiate, and execute exceptional existing and new customer joint business plans that help deliver against the company's targets, goals, and objectives sustainably.
- Drive trial and awareness of the current product portfolio by securing increased nationwide distribution with Oatly's national routes-to-market.
- Seek out white space opportunities with existing and new business accounts.
Provide regular accurate commercial and volume forecasts to the business. - Become an expert on the category and shopper, levering consumer and market insights to build both external and internal capability.
- Deliver stellar results on (or over) budget, track performance, and be a fantastic steward of company resources.
- Collaborate, motivate, and learn from the wider Oatly team in the UK and globally.
Who You Are
If the below sounds like you, we'd love to see an application:
- At least 2-3 years commercial experience within FMCG, SME or F&B.
- Strong commercial and financial ability with demonstrable experience in building new business, customer JBPs and P&Ls.
- Experience of having played a key role in the planning, development, and execution of a national, multi—channel foodservice strategy.
- A talented negotiator with proven success behind NPD, CPIs and/or JBPs.
- Exceptional communicator and relationship builder.
- Tenacious and resourceful with high resilience.
- You thrive on working as part of a team. You fly solo just fine, but you know you're a part of something bigger.
Another bulleted list felt redundant, so we wrote this long sentence with all the ways we sweeten the deal to work with us: 25 days of holiday (+bank holidays and the opportunity to buy or sell days), comprehensive health insurance, free therapy so you can be kind to your mind, an epic office space in Farringdon which comes with loads of snacks and breakfast (+ amazing cappoatccinos), genuinely great co-workers who want to see the company and each other succeed, and a fridge full of the best non-dairy alternative in the world for your enjoyment.
