Vacancy Detail

Label Product Manager

A brand spanking new role. Not just for you, but for the business too. One that you can shape and make your own. Pretty exciting eh!   

Don't worry you'll have the guidance of the Sales Director who is your boss, he's a great guy and has spent many a year with the business. You'll be in good hands. It's now time though for him to be in good hands too. As Product Manager, you'll help with the strategy, you'll work across Marketing, Engineering and Sales to implement your plan and then execute it within the market place. 

You'll be joining a business that is going places. Year on Year growth of 20%. A Global customer base, a manufacturing facility based here in the UK, a depth of experience and knowledge which has helped get to this point. Now is the time to bring in experienced talent to drive them to the next level. That person is you. 

You're experienced in Labels Packaging. You know your stuff, either from a production / technical background or a sales and customer focused background. You'll use your knowledge of the sector to shape and develop new products and machinery that is then sold back into the label manufactures and printers. 

The sector experience that you have, means that you know the market. You know what works and you can use that information to really drive change and innovate the industry all whilst leaning on the experience they have of manufacturing world renowned printed packaging machinery. 

Flexibility is paramount in this role. You'll be remote based with travel around current and prospect clients. This will involve travel around 70% of the time and will sometimes involve global travel too. 

Despite being part of the well established sales team, this IS NOT a new business role, this is technical sales. You'll not be sat there making 100 calls a day, prospecting and pitching. You'll be proactive in following up enquiries and leads from the vast marketing investment this company has made and whilst using your deep understanding of labels you'll educate and convert potential business into clients and internally, you'll use the market insight to really shape current and future offerings.

As a Product Manager, you know and understand that your role is to drive and add value to everyone involved in the process. You are the process in this case. You're guiding the set up and development internally whilst adding value to your customer base by demonstrating the capabilities you've designed! 

Collaboration is key. You'll be pulled from pillar to post with your knowledge. Absolutely integral to pushing the business and product offering moving forward. To do that, you have to wear many hats and work closely with all internal departments. You know this already though! Marketing, Sales, Engineering the lot. 

This is the first of it's kind for the business. A huge push, focus and development on not just now but the future. If you'd like to know more, get in touch.
