Job Description

About Kerry

Kerry is the world's leading taste and nutrition company for the food, beverage and pharmaceutical industries. Every day we partner with customers to create healthier, tastier and more sustainable products that are consumed by billions of people across the world. Our vision is to be our customers' most valued partner, creating a world of sustainable nutrition. A career with Kerry offers you an opportunity to shape the future of food while providing you opportunities to explore and grow in a truly global environment.

About the role

This role is ideal for a dynamic and results-driven marketer who thrives in a fast-paced commercial environment, excels at storytelling, and is passionate about bringing insights, flavor innovation, and customer opportunities to life. While some strategic input into targeting and go-to-market approach is required, the majority of your time will be spent in execution—directly engaging with customers and collaborating across sales, R&D, and applications teams to unlock growth.

Key Responsibilities:

•  Partner with Sales: Collaborate daily with the West Coast Sales Leader to co-develop regional growth strategies, identify white space opportunities, and drive new business pipeline.

•  Customer Engagements: Lead the development and delivery of high-impact customer presentations, innovation sessions, and concept pitches that showcase Kerry’s expertise and capabilities in citrus, coffee, taste modulation, and cocoa.

•  Pipeline Activation: Own the marketing execution needed to move opportunities from prospect to conversion—translating insights, technical capabilities, and trends into compelling customer-facing narratives.

•  Portfolio Storytelling: Build persuasive positioning and storytelling for our taste portfolios, enabling differentiation in a crowded market.

•  Insight-Driven Execution: Leverage relevant category trends, consumer behaviors, and customer insights to guide engagements and tailor messaging.

•  Sales Enablement: Create best-in-class tools and materials to support the commercial team in selling our taste solutions—ranging from customer-ready decks to activation toolkits and sample support.

•  Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work seamlessly with R&D application and flavorist teams to align customer-facing work with business goals and technical capabilities.

Qualifications and skills

Qualifications:

•  Bachelor’s degree in Marketing, Business, Food Science, or related field; MBA a plus.

•  7+ years of progressive B2B marketing or commercial experience in the flavor industry required.

•  Proven track record of customer-facing marketing that drives pipeline and sales growth.

•  Deep understanding of the beverage industry and flavor trends.

•  Exceptional presentation and storytelling skills—able to simplify complex technical information and bring flavor solutions to life.

•  Ability to work autonomously while closely partnering with sales and cross-functional teams.

•  Comfortable managing multiple fast-paced projects and shifting priorities with ease.

•  Strong collaboration, communication, and relationship-building skills.

•  Past experience working in a matrix organization strongly preferred

•  Travel could comprise 30% of this role.
