Baileys is looking for an experienced commercial leader to premiumise Baileys and adopt Treat Company behaviour to accelerate growth.

There has never been a more exciting time to work on Baileys. The real treat category is culturally hot and an exciting new hunting ground. Transforming the physical presence of Baileys into the stratosphere of real treating, generating strong results, with loads of opportunity to grow further. We are on a journey to premiumise the brand and behave more like a Treat Company than a Cream Liqueur. There is a clear recipe for success with work to take it all to reality:

  • Category: Anchor Baileys in the real, adult treats category with delicious Baileys (part cake; part booze; pure pleasure) at the heart. Demonstrate how Baileys is an adult treat and brand commercially.
  • Shoppers: Disrupt the treat shopper through the shopper journey to drive shown incremental basket size for our customers
  • On trade: Follow indulgence to the on-trade and implement at scale. Baileys, in most markets, fails to secure prioritisation for on-trade activation. You will unlock this opportunity through serve, dispense, compelling customer story and tools.
  • Ecommerce: With increasing consumption in the B2C and B2B channel we need to use our online presence, as its much easier to disrupt shoppers there than in the physical space.
  • Innovation: Perfect launch execution achieving more and more bold innovations.
  • New Markets: Baileys works everywhere and has a broad footprint. However, there are clear gaps in need of commercial leadership. (Africa and APAC markets)
