VACANCY: Port Nicholson Fisheries LP - Commercial Manager
Commercial Manager
- Well established production and export operations
- Broadly based finance based leadership role
- Wellington Based
Port Nicholson Fisheries is the largest Māori-owned exporter of live lobster. It is also the largest North Island exporter and second largest nationally. It exports premium quality live lobster from the clean, fresh and pure waters of New Zealand directly to customers in China, providing them with produce from one of the world’s most pristine and sustainably managed fisheries.
The role of Commercial Manager will be an integral member of the leadership team and will assume full responsibility for leading the accounting, finance & administrative functions, while also providing strategic support to the CEO and the Board. Supported by a small accounting/administration team you will still be involved in some of the day to day transactional activities, but the focus will be on leading the further development of the information systems, business performance reporting, risk management and supply chain management. As the organisation looks at new growth opportunities, there will also plenty of projects to keep you busy, which will involve you at an operational level.
We view this position as an ideal opportunity for candidates who have established themselves in senior commercial sector finance roles but are looking for a boarder range of operational involvement. Applicants will ideally have a relevant professional qualification and will need to demonstrate skills/experience in both financial & cost management reporting, along with financial planning and analysis and ideally some exposure to commercial management. Previous experience in food production/processing orientated environments, while not essential is a definite advantage. On a personal level we are seeking to identify candidates who are career motivated, good communicators, proactive and solutions focused in their approach, can display proven leadership skills and enjoy contributing as part of the wider team.
The remuneration package is competitive and where a candidate is looking to move to Wellington some relocation assistance can be provided.
