You'll need:
- Category or trade marketing experience - you understand how to build a category story from data.
- Commercial exposure - you've worked with or alongside a P&L, not just a slide deck.
- Time spent in impulse, convenience, OOH, or food service channels (or a genuine appetite to move into them).
- The ability to influence people who don't report to you - buyers, brand managers, customer directors - without waiting for a formal process to do it
