We have an exciting opportunity to join Nestlé UK as Senior Digital Commerce Manager, working in deep partnership with one of our most strategic UK grocery retail customers to accelerate Nestlé’s online market share growth. The role sits at the intersection of commercial strategy, digital decision‑making, and executive‑level customer partnership.
