Transform a Category. Rebuild Growth. Leave a Legacy.
Most leaders inherit a business. This leader will redefine one.
A globally recognised consumer brand is seeking an exceptional commercial leader to lead a significant business transformation across Australia and New Zealand.
Competitive pressure is increasing, consumer behaviours are shifting and traditional category boundaries are disappearing.
The opportunity is clear: defend market share, reposition the brand, accelerate growth and create the next chapter.
Reporting to an offshore APAC leader, you will assume full accountability for the ANZ business with the autonomy to shape strategy, lead transformation and drive results.
This is not a stewardship role.
Nor is it a business waiting for direction from headquarters.
This is a mandate for a leader who can assess what needs to change, make decisions quickly and execute with pace.
- Key Priorities
- Reposition an established category leader into a more relevant, lifestyle-led consumer brand.
- Defend and grow market share in an increasingly competitive environment.
- Unlock new growth opportunities across digital, retail and emerging channels.
- Strengthen customer relevance and expand share of wallet.
- Evaluate organisational capability, structure and leadership to support future growth.
- Lead an engaged team through a period of significant transformation.
- Drive performance across both consumer and B2B revenue streams.
- Build strong relationships with customers, partners and key stakeholders.
About You
You are a commercially astute leader with a track record of driving growth, transformation and category evolution.
You combine strategic thinking with a hands-on approach and are equally comfortable shaping brand strategy, growing revenue, building teams and making tough decisions.
You understand consumers, recognise commercial opportunity and know how to turn insight into action.
Most importantly, you are the type of leader who gets close to the market, brings people with you through change and isn't afraid to challenge the status quo.
The Opportunity
This is a rare opportunity to lead a well-established business at a genuine inflection point.
The foundations are strong. The brand is trusted. The opportunity is significant.
What comes next requires a leader with the courage to challenge, the judgement to prioritise and the energy to execute.
A trusted brand. A challenged category. A business ready for reinvention.
