Mackenzie Jones has partnered with Nomad Foods since 2018, managing multiple assignments across the UK and Europe. Recent campaigns include IT transformation, Supply Chain leadership, and Revenue Growth Management roles, helping Nomad build critical capabilities in key regions.
Challenges
Rapid growth through acquisitions created ongoing demand for mid- to executive-level talent in IT, Supply Chain, Operations, and Commercial roles. Nomad required leaders who could navigate operational complexities, drive technical advancements, and foster cultural integration while aligning with its values, making talent acquisition a critical priority.
Nomad recognised there was a real need to identify and secure talent that would support the organisation’s operational and technical growth, whilst enabling change and embracing their culture.

As Nomad Foods’ exclusive search partner, Mackenzie Jones recruited 68+ professionals across IT, Supply Chain, and Commercial functions. Leveraging extensive talent networks and insights, we delivered hires in IT leadership, ERP/SAP, and revenue growth management.
