Marketing Manager - Quaker Oats

Beschreibung:

Overview

At PepsiCo UK, we're proud to make some of the nation's favourite snacks and drinks-like Walkers, Quaker, Doritos, Pipers, and Monster Munch. With sites across the UK, including our Quaker mill in Cupar and Doritos factory in Coventry, we're also home to one of the world's largest crisp factories in Leicester.

Quaker is one of the leading brands in the cereal category and played a key role in making oats a much-loved breakfast choice. Since its founding in 1877, the brand has been rooted in the belief that access to good nutrition should never be limited by circumstance.
