Job description

Are you ready to take your first real step into Sales and National Accounts within a high-growth grocery business? We’re looking for a Commercial Executive (6 month FTC); an organised, commercially curious and detail-driven individual to support one of the business’ most strategic retail partnerships.

This is your opportunity to see how a £20M grocery account is really run. You’ll work alongside an experienced sales team, supporting the Tesco Group and gaining hands-on exposure to the commercial levers that drive revenue, growth and customer relationships.

You’ll be at the centre of keeping a major retail account moving, ensuring the detail is right, deadlines are hit, and cross-functional teams are aligned.

Key responsibilities of the role include:

  • Own the day-to-day commercial administration across Tesco, Booker and Tesco Ireland, ensuring accuracy across price files, promotions and product data

  • Manage and maintain internal trackers across c.40 SKUs, supporting seasonal changes and NPD launches

  • Coordinate with Supply Chain, NPD and Technical teams to ensure activity lands on time and in full

  • Support promotional submissions, forecasting inputs and investment tracking

  • Prepare customer presentations, reports and meeting packs

  • Act as a central point of contact internally to keep projects and launches on track

Who you are:

  • Experience in a commercial, sales support, marketing, supply chain, buying or project-based role

  • Highly organised with strong attention to detail

  • Commercially curious and keen to begin a career in Sales or National Accounts

  • Confident working with data and Excel

  • A proactive communicator who enjoys working cross-functionally

  • Ambitious, reliable and ready to take ownership of processes

Be part of a fast-moving, innovative private label business where you will gain genuine exposure to how major grocery accounts operate, develop your commercial understanding, and position yourself for a future move into National Account Management.
