COMMERCIAL ASSISTANT | FOOD / FMCG | LISBON

• Lisbon, Portugal
• €30,000 gross + Bonus + Health Insurance
• Full-Time | Predominantly Office-Based

Are you highly organised, commercially minded and someone who gets things done?

I'm working with an exciting and growing Food / FMCG business looking for a Commercial Assistant to provide essential support to the Commercial Director and wider commercial team.

This is a fast-paced, hands-on role where you'll play a key part in keeping customers, orders, product launches, documentation and commercial activity moving.

What you'll be doing

• Supporting the Commercial Director with key customer accounts and opportunities
• Managing commercial back-office activity, including orders, price lists, proposals and customer documentation
• Supporting new product launches and new product introductions
• Coordinating customer requirements, campaigns and promotions
• Maintaining accurate commercial information and documentation
• Following up with customers, suppliers and internal teams to ensure deadlines are met
• Supporting product quality and technical documentation where required
• Keeping track of actions, priorities and outstanding tasks
• Acting as a key link between the Commercial team and the wider business

What we're looking for

• We're looking for someone who is:
• Highly organised and detail-focused
• Fast-paced, proactive and commercially aware
• Comfortable managing multiple priorities
• A strong communicator and relationship builder
• Able to work independently without constant supervision
• Experienced in commercial administration, sales support or FMCG/food
• Experience with chilled food or Portuguese retail/large distribution would be a major advantage
• Familiarity with food quality/product documentation would also be beneficial

You don't need to be a technical food specialist.

What matters most is your organisation, reliability, commercial awareness and ability to make things happen.

Why this opportunity?

You'll work closely with the Commercial Director, giving you excellent exposure to customers, commercial strategy, new product launches and the wider FMCG industry.

This is a role for someone who wants to be more than an administrator — someone who wants to become an integral part of a growing commercial operation.
