Business Development Executive Food Manufacturing - B2B Commercial Growth - Customer Development Berkshire / Hybrid Working c 45-50,000 + Car Allowance + Bonus + Exceptional Long-Term Opportunity A highly respected and commercially ambitious UK food manufacturing business is seeking an exceptional Business Development Executive to help drive the next phase of growth across its evolving B2B commercial function. This is a rare opportunity to join a well-established manufacturing organisation supplying into complex food manufacturing environments and to play a genuinely influential role in developing new customer relationships, identifying growth opportunities and strengthening long-term commercial partnerships across the sector. Importantly, this is not a traditional account management role it is a new business development role. The organisation already possesses strong manufacturing capability, established customer relationships, respected operational infrastructure and significant technical expertise. What it is now looking to strengthen is its proactive commercial growth capability, somebody capable of identifying opportunities, understanding customer challenges, developing relationships and helping convert prospects into profitable long-term partnerships. The role has been specifically created to bring greater external focus, customer development, market intelligence and new business capability into an evolving B2B commercial function. For the right individual, this represents an exceptional opportunity to gain broad commercial exposure within a collaborative and fast-paced food manufacturing environment whilst building a long-term career within a commercially ambitious business. The Opportunity Operating within the B2B commercial team, you will focus on identifying and developing new commercial opportunities, building relationships with prospective manufacturing and food service customers, understanding market gaps and customer challenges, supporting commercially compelling proposals and helping convert opportunities into profitable long-term business relationships. You will work closely across Commercial, NPD, Technical, Finance, Purchasing, Planning and Operations to ensure opportunities are commercially viable, operationally deliverable and strategically aligned. This is a highly cross-functional commercial role requiring somebody who enjoys understanding how manufacturing businesses operate, where commercial opportunities exist and how long-term customer relationships are developed. You will spend significant time externally engaging with customers and prospects, understanding their businesses, identifying opportunities and developing strong commercial relationships across the market. The role combines elements of business development, customer engagement, commercial analysis, onboarding support, market insight generation, strategic relationship building and customer growth development. This opportunity would suit somebody who enjoys being externally visible, commercially curious and proactive in identifying opportunities rather than operating purely within a reactive or heavily account-administration-led environment. The Type Of Individual Likely To Succeed The successful individual is likely to be ambitious, commercially curious and motivated by the idea of building long-term customer relationships within a complex manufacturing environment. You will enjoy understanding how businesses operate, identifying gaps and opportunities, asking intelligent commercial questions and developing relationships across multiple stakeholders. This role is unlikely to suit somebody who prefers purely desk-based account administration or heavily process-led commercial support work. Instead, the organisation is looking for somebody who enjoys engaging customers directly, is comfortable operating externally, demonstrates strong commercial instinct and naturally builds credibility and trust with others. The business is particularly interested in individuals who combine energy, resilience, commercial curiosity, relationship-building capability, strong organisational skills and genuine ambition to develop their commercial career further. Equally important will be the ability to work collaboratively across functions including NPD, Technical, Finance, Operations and Planning. This is a role sitting at the intersection of customer development and operational delivery, meaning strong internal collaboration is just as important as external commercial capability. Background & Experience We are particularly interested in speaking with individuals currently operating within food manufacturing, ingredients, flavourings, seasonings, beverage manufacturing, foodservice manufacturing, B2B FMCG or wider manufacturing-led commercial environments. You may currently be working as a Commercial Executive, Sales Executive, Customer Executive, Business Development Executive, Customer Development Executive, Junior Commercial Manager or within another commercially customer-facing environment. Experience engaging with or selling into manufacturing customers would be highly advantageous, particularly within complex food manufacturing or B2B environments. Candidates with exposure to customer development, commercial proposals, manufacturing relationships, NPD collaboration, margin-focused commercial thinking and consultative customer engagement are likely to be particularly well suited. Academic & Development Background The organisation is particularly interested in individuals who have built strong commercial foundations early in their career. This may include degree education, formal commercial graduate training schemes, structured FMCG commercial development programmes or broader customer-facing commercial training within manufacturing-led businesses. The successful individual is likely to demonstrate strong commercial acumen, excellent numeracy including expertise in Excel an analytical capability and the intellectual curiosity to understand both the commercial and operational drivers behind customer relationships. Exposure to areas such as negotiation, customer presentations, commercial analysis, product portfolio management, project coordination or broader commercial planning would all be viewed positively. Why This Opportunity Stands Out This opportunity offers the chance to join a business that combines genuine manufacturing capability, established customer relationships, operational agility, collaborative leadership and strong long-term commercial ambition. Unlike larger corporate environments, this role offers broad commercial exposure, visibility across the organisation, close collaboration with senior stakeholders and the opportunity to make a genuine impact within an evolving B2B function. The organisation is looking for somebody capable of growing with the role over time and sees this as an important long-term commercial hire rather than simply a short-term vacancy fill. As the B2B channel continues to evolve, there is genuine opportunity for increased exposure, responsibility and long-term career development.

This is a role sitting at the intersection of customer development and operational delivery, meaning strong internal collaboration is just as important as external commercial capability. Background & Experience We are particularly interested in speaking with individuals currently operating within food manufacturing, ingredients, flavourings, seasonings, beverage manufacturing, foodservice manufacturing, B2B FMCG or wider manufacturing-led commercial environments. You may currently be working as a Commercial Executive, Sales Executive, Customer Executive, Business Development Executive, Customer Development Executive, Junior Commercial Manager or within another commercially customer-facing environment. Experience engaging with or selling into manufacturing customers would be highly advantageous, particularly within complex food manufacturing or B2B environments. Candidates with exposure to customer development, commercial proposals, manufacturing relationships, NPD collaboration, margin-focused commercial thinking and consultative customer engagement are likely to be particularly well suited. Academic & Development Background The organisation is particularly interested in individuals who have built strong commercial foundations early in their career. This may include degree education, formal commercial graduate training schemes, structured FMCG commercial development programmes or broader customer-facing commercial training within manufacturing-led businesses. The successful individual is likely to demonstrate strong commercial acumen, excellent numeracy including expertise in Excel an analytical capability and the intellectual curiosity to understand both the commercial and operational drivers behind customer relationships. Exposure to areas such as negotiation, customer presentations, commercial analysis, product portfolio management, project coordination or broader commercial planning would all be viewed positively. Why This Opportunity Stands Out This opportunity offers the chance to join a business that combines genuine manufacturing capability, established customer relationships, operational agility, collaborative leadership and strong long-term commercial ambition. Unlike larger corporate environments, this role offers broad commercial exposure, visibility across the organisation, close collaboration with senior stakeholders and the opportunity to make a genuine impact within an evolving B2B function. The organisation is looking for somebody capable of growing with the role over time and sees this as an important long-term commercial hire rather than simply a short-term vacancy fill. As the B2B channel continues to evolve, there is genuine opportunity for increased exposure, responsibility and long-term career development.

You will work closely with Architecture, Infrastructure & Operations, Delivery & Change, Procurement, NA and ATGE Europe teams, as well as managed service providers, software platform vendors, and the venue and business-unit IT customers you serve. You will partner closely with the Head of IT Delivery & Change on the IT Change Management process and the service-transition handoff into operational service. You will be an experienced Head of IT Service Delivery, Head of Service Management, or senior Service Delivery leader with a proven track record across hybrid IT operating models, multi-vendor SIAM, ITSM platform direction and managed service performance - within a mid- to large-enterprise environment. You will ensure the end-to-end service performance of Group IT in a hybrid-sourced operating model owning service standards, vendor accountability, ITSM and the customer-facing service experience across the UK, North America, Germany and Spain. You will have proven experience in leading multi-vendor service operations, designing and governing SLA XLA frameworks, and translating executive-level service expectations into measurable, customer-facing service standards. This is a senior leadership role responsible for the service-management spine of Group IT - translating the Executive's "run it like you own it" intent into a durable, accountable and customer-experience-led service organisation. You will operationalise the IT Service Management strategy, design and govern the SIAM model across ATG's MSPs, and lead the build of out-of-hours service capability across the Group. Experience of SIAM governance, multi-vendor MSP management and modern ITSM platform ownership is essential. You must be a self-starter, comfortable in a fast-paced and dynamic environment, and able to carry the Exec-facing service narrative - uptime, customer experience, and vendor accountability - as well as operate it day-to-day. You will be a confident communicator across executive, business, technical and external supplier audiences, mindful of different communication styles for different audiences. Specific experience in live entertainment, sports, hospitality or other venue-led industries, and a passion for the arts and creative industries, would be an advantage in your application.

Govern MSP performance against SLA, XLA (Experience Level Agreement) and end-to-end outcome frameworks across ServiceDesk, ITSM, Application Support, Cloud Infrastructure Operations, Network Operations Centre (NoC) and Security Operations Centre (SoC). Drive contractually committed business outcomes, change success rate, CMDB accuracy and cross-provider collaboration metrics; initiate corrective action and contractual remediation where required. Own the Group ITSM platform direction - a centralised SIAM dashboard with single-source-of-truth visibility across all providers (ticketing, service catalogue, CMDB, problem / change / release / configuration management) - integrated with supplier platforms, augmented by AI / GenAI and experience management tooling, and underpinned by ITIL 4 process maturity. Lead service reporting to the IT Leadership Group and business stakeholders - uptime, customer experience, vendor accountability and service-quality KPIs. Act as the Group escalation point for major service incidents and vendor performance failures; lead post-incident review, root-cause analysis and continuous improvement plans. Own service management for in-Venue technologies - Audio-Visual, Accessibility, ePOS and other front-of-house and back-of-house venue technology - and manage the Group IT relationship with Venue Operations Business Directors as the primary internal customer for venue-tech service performance. Out-of-Hours Service & Capability Build: Design and stand up Group out-of-hours service capability - making the sourcing decision (follow-the-sun in-house, MSP overflow, or hybrid) and owning ongoing governance, SLA and cost. Position ATG's IT service model as a deliberate shift from a primarily outsourced posture to a partial-insourced (hybrid) model. Lead the build and ongoing maturity of the internal ITSM capability - process, tooling, governance, performance management and continuous improvement - augmented by GenAI (MS CoPilot & Claude) and automation, so that Group IT increasingly owns the service-management spine end-to-end. Team, Application Support & Financial Management: Lead the Application Support function operationally (the Application Support Manager team), with matrixed delivery into Delivery & Change for change-driven work. Drive the AI-native, technically adept redesign of Application Support in line with the Group capability strategy. Manage the service-line Opex envelope, lead FinOps coordination with Infrastructure & Operations on managed-service cost, and contribute to Group IT financial accounting and budget planning. Establish and maintain robust ITSM frameworks (ITIL 4, SIAM, ISO 20000-aligned where appropriate) and ensure best practice is followed across regions. Stakeholder Engagement: Act as the bridge between the business, IT teams and managed service providers; collaborate with venue, theatre and corporate stakeholders at all levels; serve as the senior service-experience voice in Exec, Group leadership and Providence-facing forums. Your skills, qualities, and experience Essential A proven track record of experience supporting a complex IT estate in a senior service delivery, service management or service integration leadership role. Strong strategic leadership with a proven track record designing and operating hybrid IT operating models and multi-vendor SIAM ecosystems, including SIAM advisory, mixed managed services and build-operate-transfer (BOT) contracting models.

Service Management and Governance: SLA, XLA (Experience Level Agreement) and end-to-end outcome frameworks; contractually committed business outcomes versus traditional SLAs; incentives and penalties tied to cross-resolver-group outcomes; commercial and contractual familiarity with multi-vendor governance. Enhance Delivery Through Technology: build & operate a centralised SIAM dashboard and observability with single-source-of-truth visibility across all providers; AI / agentic AI / GenAI augmentation; integration with supplier platforms; automation initiatives across service operations. Service-experience design - translating Exec-level service expectations into measurable, customer-facing service standards (uptime, CSAT, XLA, business-outcome metrics) across multi-region service delivery. Out-of-hours service design (follow-the-sun, NOC-style or hybrid MSP / in-house models) and Group-wide major incident management. Operational familiarity with cloud-first IT estates, FinOps disciplines, and GenAI / automation augmentation in service operations (MS CoPilot, Claude or equivalent).
