Do you love vegetables and peas in particular? In the truly, madly, deeply kind of way? Do you have experience from developing supplier relationships as well? Well, in that case this position might be of interest to you!

You have likely heard on the news about the upcoming closure of the factory in Bjuv.

The supply of peas for the Swedish market will instead be handled through co-packers, and now we are looking to hire a Veg Supply Manager to develop this collaboration.

Findus Ingress

Findus Sweden is a leading food company in Sweden with hundreds of frozen and ambient food products for retail and foodservice. Quality and passion for food is driving the company.

Findus Sweden is part of Nomad Foods Europe since November 2015. Nomad, founded by Noam Gottesman and Martin E. Franklin, is the largest company in Europe for frozen food. Nomad has approx. 4300 employees in 15 countries with 10 factories throughout Europe. Findus Sweden is no 1 in frozen vegetables, fish and meals in Sweden with a turnover of 2.5 billion SEK.

We seek for people that can challenge and develop our business with new ways of working and creative thinking. Findus is performance driven and rewards any performance for success.

Who are we looking for?

Passion is essential. Passion for environment, sustainability, quality and commercial success. As this is an entirely new collaboration with co-packers, we need you to be a creative thinker with the ability to make things happen.  

Your communication skills are well developed and since you have interaction with not only external co-packers but also with R&D, Sales & Marketing, Supply Chain and other Veg Supply Managers in Europe, you enjoy building relationships throughout the organization. You create change by influencing and challenging others, in order to come up with new ideas to create business improvements & growth opportunities.

As this is a position that's rather independent, you need the ability to plan, execute and follow up on different levels. Needless to say, you have a very strong agricultural as well as commercial interest.

We believe you to have relevant academicals degree relating to supply chain.

As mentioned in the top of this job-ad, you obviously have experience from developing collaborative supplier relationships in the past and know how to balance between being supportive and demanding. Since you will be working with peas and to some extent other vegetables, understanding of agriculture is highly preferable.  There are many factors that might influence size and quality of the crops, which in turn will have a commercial impact on the business and we expect you to take adequate action on this.

We need you to be fluent in Swedish both in speech and writing. As English is the corporate language, and James who's the guy you report to is British, you will need to both speak and write it fluently.

What about the job then?

By reading this far, you should have been able to get the essence of the position as Veg Supply Manager at Findus, but we boil it down to some bullet points for you as well. These are parts of, but not all, of your responsibilities:

• To develop and manage the sourcing strategy of peas and other vegetables in Sweden to ensure requisite raw material supplies meet quality, volume and cost targets, with strategic responsibility for ensuring competitive supply continuity.
• Contract management.
• Drive continuous improvement with Swedish suppliers/co-packers through targeted plans and projects.
• Represent function as appropriate on the Swedish MU team.
• Assist in wider group agriculture management and pea sourcing, providing support and expertise to the 3rd party group pea suppliers.

For the right candidate the position will likely after a couple of years develop into a broader European responsibility.

This position will be based on Findus new head office in Malmö. It requires some travel though, mainly within Sweden in order to visit the co-packers, but on some occasions each year you will go to meet colleagues in different parts of Europe.

The ad will be public until the 13th of November, but we will work with a continuous selection and the position may be filled before then. So, please send your application without delay.
