Excellent challenges and learnings
Environment is a challenge,every day is different, collegues have great work ethic and the team has a good working relationship supporting one another in team tasks while performing individual tasks.Daily tasks vary depending on deadlines and particular tasks from general key account functions,sales,price increases,new product listings,ranging and deranging exercises,advert and promotional planning with promotional deals to drive volume,negotiating trading terms,trade shows and conferences,new product launches and customer relationship retention and management.Frequently travelling is a challenge, positively promotes maintainance of customer base.High pressure high stress and very fast paced with alot of ongoing learnings from management, it is important to keep asking questions and making a concerted effort to brush up on latest changes, ideas and input from others to maximise the outputs.
Pros: Great portfolio of products, excellent relationships, daily challenges
Cons: Frequent flying which minimises time requiring a lot of additional over time to complete tasks, not much room for further growth
