We are Made Uncommon, a growing group of premium consumer brands in chocolate and lifestyle goods. Following a series of acquisitions, we are now uniting six challenger brands, including COCO Chocolatier, Otherly, UP-UP, and Seed & Bean, under one ambitious group.

We are looking for a Commercial General Manager to bring focus, structure, and pace, turning big ideas into disciplined execution and measurable results.

This is not a corporate MD role. It is a hands-on commercial leadership position with full authority over day-to-day performance, P&L, and delivery.

What You Will Do

  • Take ownership of the group P&L, managing revenue, margin, and cost performance
  • Lead and coach the heads of Operations, Sales, Product, Marketing, and Design
  • Integrate newly acquired brands into one efficient operating structure
  • Run the EOS framework, leading Level 10 meetings, managing Rocks, and keeping projects moving
  • Translate strategy into plans, budgets, and accountable quarterly goals
  • Drive commercial performance across B2B, retail, and D2C channels
  • Maintain a healthy, lean culture that is disciplined, creative, and fast-moving

Who You Are

  • Commercially fluent, comfortable with cashflow, margin, and balance-sheet thinking
  • Experienced in FMCG, food, gifting, or multi-brand consumer goods
  • Hands-on, pragmatic, and calm under pressure
  • Strong with people, credible, approachable, and able to earn trust quickly
  • Operationally disciplined but not bureaucratic
  • Confident working directly with a founder, preferring direct conversations over politics

What Is on Offer

  • A leadership role with real autonomy and accountability
  • The chance to help shape and scale a portfolio of distinctive brands
  • Competitive package with performance bonus, private medical cover, and employee discount
  • Full-time, in-person role based in South Queensferry

If you want to build something real, a lean and design-led group of ethical brands, and you get energy from making things happen rather than talking about them, we would like to hear from you.

Apply or message Calum Haggerty, Founder at Made Uncommon, to start the conversation.
