Employee Spotlight

1. What factors motivated your decision to join Campbell Arnott’s?

After seven years in various roles within the retail sales function at my previous employer, I was seeking an opportunity to move to an organisation that could facilitate my goal to gain broader experience within sales and also provide opportunities to explore a potential career path in other functions. During the interview process I was encouraged that the business supported cross functional moves to broaden an individual’s skill set to realise their career aspirations. I had heard many good reports from within the industry that Campbell Arnott’s had a strong culture, and the fact there was an impressive portfolio of brands was an additional bonus!

2. How do you feel valued at Campbell Arnott’s?

Everyday I come to work to do what I enjoy, I have the opportunity to utilise my strengths as well as work on my development areas. Like everyone at Campbell Arnott’s, I have a working development plan which is supported by the business to help me realise my potential and career aspirations. The people processes we have in place are very transparent and provides clarity on how my daily contribution helps the business achieve its overall goals.

3. How have you made a difference to our organisation in the past twelve months?

Over the past year my team have played an instrumental role in expanding the availability of our well loved brands in the Impulse and Convenience channel. You will now have a much greater opportunity to purchase a Wagon Wheel, bag of Shapes and more recently V8 300ml juice in petrol and convenience outlets, video stores, newsagencies and vending machines across the country!

I’ve really enjoyed bringing new people into the business, and developing them along with my existing team to produce extraordinary results. I have also been fortunate to lead our Diversity initiative for the Sales function, providing me the opportunity to work on something I am really passionate about as well as making a difference in the team.

4. Which of Campbell Arnott’s icon brands would you like a lifetime supply of?

That would definitely be V8 Tropical Fruit and Veg juice! It’s a staple in my fridge, a delicious start to the day, great as a snack on the run, and even more importantly, it’s just so good for you, with 1 serve of fruit and 1 serve of veg in every glass.
