As an International Distribution Manager, you know that when a business is on track with its distribution partner strategy, your product is being talked about even in rooms where you're not present. Their product gets recommended, specified, and pushed forward because the right people are backing it. That's the goal they're aiming for here. Currently, they have a presence in the States, and it's working well. This success shows there's potential. However, after a two-day offsite review with the leadership team, they took a step back to evaluate what might be missing. And the conclusion was obvious The title is a working one too, you may be called Channel Manager or Partner Acquisition Manager, this is an opportunity to really make your mark. They need someone experienced that understands how distribution partners ranging from large catalogue industrial online partners to local distributor partners in specified regions operate.

There is a great inclusive culture here, with everyone engaged from shop floor to the Directors, and the team celebrate together and collaborate.

The US is just the beginning; think South America, China, and beyond, where the right partnerships can open doors fast. You'll be the one to identify valuable collaborators, nurture those relationships, and turn them into something that really pays off. Because in this role, getting a partner to say yes is just the first step. But that's just part of what they need As an International Distribution Manager, you'll also need to consider where your product fits best. Think about how it can be integrated into transportation, materials handling, and other areas where it can truly shine, and they can't sell their product without integrating yours connections within these industries would certainly give you an open door. You aren't just expanding a network you're paving new paths to market. Your days will be a mix of strategy and delivery, some days, you'll be at home or in Birmingham, planning your next moves. Other times, you'll be jumping on a plane, out at trade shows, connecting with partners, and getting a real sense of who your ideal partners are. As International Distribution Manager you are someone thrives on both planning and action, and its not about what you have sold It's about your experience as an International Distribution Manager. You've collaborated with distributors before, so you know what a great partner looks like, you can spot when things aren't right, and you're at ease with building something from the ground up. The salary ranges from £50,000 to £60,000, plus an attractive bonus on top. There is a pension and Health cash plan as additional benefits. This is a whole new adventure. You're not just managing an existing pipeline; you're creating one, which means the bonus potential is entirely in your hands. And once you've established it, and contributed to sizeable growth, there's the potential to expand this into something much larger and even build a team around you.

Overview English professional football has over recent years made considerable investment into elite talent pathways. Clubs and other entities running elite talent programmes for young players must comply with advanced and evolving regulatory frameworks. These frameworks have been developed to deliver on English football's shared mission of developing more and better homegrown players, and compliance with them is a condition of receiving central funding to support elite youth development. On the boys' side and as part of the Elite Player Performance Plan - the Professional Game's national strategy for developing male youth footballers in England - professional club Academies are licensed and placed into one of four categories (Category 1 to 4). These categories are based on a combination of factors, including investment levels, facilities, staffing, and the quality of provision across key multidisciplinary areas. We are currently reviewing the audit and assessment framework used on the boys' side. On the girls' side, the female talent pathway aims to support the development of more and better home-grown players through two key programmes , with around 60 licensed Emerging Talent Centres for girls aged eight to 16 and 20 licensed Professional Game Academies delivering training and development to girls aged 14 to 21. It is likely that, as the girls' game continues to grow, the licensing requirements for both Emerging Talent Centres and Professional Game Academies - together with the way in which PGAAC assesses them - will continue to evolve. To ensure licensing conditons are complied with and to support the continual raising of standards in both sides of elite player development, an independent standards organisation has been developed, mandated by the professional game, to monitor safety, compliance and the quality of work being delivered across both the male and female environments. The Professional Game Academy Audit Company (PGAAC), is the independent standards organisation established by The FA, the Premier League and the EFL, oversees a multidisciplinary assessment of all licensed training programmes. For example in boys' Academies, the assessment covers Leadership & Management, Coaching, Performance Support, Duty of Care, Education, Safeguarding, and Productivity. Directors of the board are required to provide overall leadership and strategic vision for PGAAC, acting as a critical eye on the outputs of the multi-disciplinary assessments on the boys' side and making licensing and other recommendations based on these asessments, and supporting the management team. A committee of the board, the Women's Talent Pathway Assessment Board (WTPAB), has been established. Its membership consists of the PGAAC chair and representatives of The FA, WSL Football, the Premier League, and one independent member. The WTPAB monitors the delivery of PGAAC's audit and assurance programme in the girls' game and makes licensing and other recommendations based on the outputs of assessments. It thus maintains some operational independence from the main PGAAC Board which notwithstanding monitors its work. It is not anticipated that the successful candidate will also sit on the WTPAB although we are open to discussion on this point. Background of the Board The Board of PGAAC is comprised of an independent chair, and includes representatives from its three shareholders: the EFL, The FA and the Premier League. Key responsibilities of the INED Reporting to the Chair, the INED will be required to work with the other Directors of the Board to: Support PGAAC to deliver on its mission through a period of continued change. Contributes and, where appropriate, leads the discussion around strategy and forward thinking actions with the ultimate aim of have a clear plan and framework in place which enables focus for all involved and gives opportunity to measure success Ensure that PGAAC is run in a transparent and equitable manner and operates in line with accepted best practice in corporate governance. Reviewing the output of the audits of boys' Academies undertaken by PGAAC staff. Evaluate and assess that output in order to determine whether an Academy should be awarded or maintain its licence to operate as such, and make recommendations accordingly. Where appropriate, consider, advise on and make recommendations regarding systemic areas of quality, risk and developmental need in the male and female elite talent pathway. Offer check and challenge to the Chair, General Manager and PGAAC staff. Experience and capabilities This is a role which combines strong business and governance acumen with some understanding and passion for youth development in English football. You do not need to be a football youth development expert as this expertise is already represented in depth on the Board. But you will be motivated by the vision of PGAAC and by the English football stakeholders' shared desire to produce more and better home-grown players, and the development and wellbeing of children within the game.

Overview English professional football has over recent years made considerable investment into elite talent pathways. Clubs and other entities running elite talent programmes for young players must comply with advanced and evolving regulatory frameworks. These frameworks have been developed to deliver on English football's shared mission of developing more and better homegrown players, and compliance with them is a condition of receiving central funding to support elite youth development. On the boys' side and as part of the Elite Player Performance Plan - the Professional Game's national strategy for developing male youth footballers in England - professional club Academies are licensed and placed into one of four categories (Category 1 to 4). These categories are based on a combination of factors, including investment levels, facilities, staffing, and the quality of provision across key multidisciplinary areas. We are currently reviewing the audit and assessment framework used on the boys' side. On the girls' side, the female talent pathway aims to support the development of more and better home-grown players through two key programmes , with around 60 licensed Emerging Talent Centres for girls aged eight to 16 and 20 licensed Professional Game Academies delivering training and development to girls aged 14 to 21. It is likely that, as the girls' game continues to grow, the licensing requirements for both Emerging Talent Centres and Professional Game Academies - together with the way in which PGAAC assesses them - will continue to evolve. To ensure licensing conditons are complied with and to support the continual raising of standards in both sides of elite player development, an independent standards organisation has been developed, mandated by the professional game, to monitor safety, compliance and the quality of work being delivered across both the male and female environments. The Professional Game Academy Audit Company (PGAAC), is the independent standards organisation established by The FA, the Premier League and the EFL, oversees a multidisciplinary assessment of all licensed training programmes. For example in boys' Academies, the assessment covers Leadership & Management, Coaching, Performance Support, Duty of Care, Education, Safeguarding, and Productivity. Directors of the board are required to provide overall leadership and strategic vision for PGAAC, acting as a critical eye on the outputs of the multi-disciplinary assessments on the boys' side and making licensing and other recommendations based on these asessments, and supporting the management team. A committee of the board, the Women's Talent Pathway Assessment Board (WTPAB), has been established. Its membership consists of the PGAAC chair and representatives of The FA, WSL Football, the Premier League, and one independent member. The WTPAB monitors the delivery of PGAAC's audit and assurance programme in the girls' game and makes licensing and other recommendations based on the outputs of assessments. It thus maintains some operational independence from the main PGAAC Board which notwithstanding monitors its work. It is not anticipated that the successful candidate will also sit on the WTPAB although we are open to discussion on this point. Background of the Board The Board of PGAAC is comprised of an independent chair, and includes representatives from its three shareholders: the EFL, The FA and the Premier League. Key responsibilities of the INED Reporting to the Chair, the INED will be required to work with the other Directors of the Board to: Support PGAAC to deliver on its mission through a period of continued change. Contributes and, where appropriate, leads the discussion around strategy and forward thinking actions with the ultimate aim of have a clear plan and framework in place which enables focus for all involved and gives opportunity to measure success Ensure that PGAAC is run in a transparent and equitable manner and operates in line with accepted best practice in corporate governance. Reviewing the output of the audits of boys' Academies undertaken by PGAAC staff. Evaluate and assess that output in order to determine whether an Academy should be awarded or maintain its licence to operate as such, and make recommendations accordingly. Where appropriate, consider, advise on and make recommendations regarding systemic areas of quality, risk and developmental need in the male and female elite talent pathway. Offer check and challenge to the Chair, General Manager and PGAAC staff. Experience and capabilities This is a role which combines strong business and governance acumen with some understanding and passion for youth development in English football. You do not need to be a football youth development expert as this expertise is already represented in depth on the Board. But you will be motivated by the vision of PGAAC and by the English football stakeholders' shared desire to produce more and better home-grown players, and the development and wellbeing of children within the game. The following are the experience and capabilities we are seeking: Experience working with organisations during periods of developmental growth and change is highly valuable. This includes expertise in building a strong organisational culture and fostering team cohesion, particularly where staff members work remotely Experience of operating within a Board or committee or C-suite in a commercial organisation (not necessarily in sport) or national governing body of another sport.
