About the company

We are an established international manufacturing group with a global footprint and long-standing market presence, supplying industrial products to customers in multiple sectors worldwide.

The company is now investing in building a global digital commerce capability across both DTC and B2B channels, with the ambition to create scalable new revenue streams and accelerate growth.

This role will play a central role in that transformation.

Role Overview We are looking for a commercially driven builder to create and scale a global digital commerce business covering both direct-to-consumer (DTC) and B2B channels.

This is not a traditional e-commerce management role. You will start from a blank page, work alongside senior leadership to shape the roadmap, and build a portfolio of digital businesses with full responsibility for performance.

The focus of this role is commercial ownership, growth, and value creation. You will lead go-to-market strategy, pricing, and P&L performance across both DTC and B2B, while leveraging external partners and a lean internal team to execute on platforms, integrations, and digital operations.
