Full Job Description

We have an exciting phase of growth ahead, and we're looking for a bold, entrepreneurial senior leader to join us on a maternity cover contract for up to 12 months. This is a unique opportunity to step into a senior role with real influence-leading across a diverse portfolio of catering contracts while helping shape the future of a fast-growing organisation.

You'll take ownership of your own business portfolio, lead and inspire a team of senior professionals, and play a key role in driving meaningful change, strengthening client partnerships, and delivering results that truly matter!

While this position is initially offered as a fixed-term maternity cover, there may be future progression opportunities within the business for the successful candidate as we continue to grow.
