GrandMet Foods marketing and commercial chiefs move

GrandMet Foods Brands commercial director Tony Mair and marketing director Clive Whittaker have both moved.

Whittaker joins NFC Moving Services as group marketing director at the end of March. Mair has been promoted within the Grand Met Group, but the company refused to give details.

Mair will be replaced by Martin Jamieson, formerly commercial director for the company’s trading group.

A GrandMet Foods spokeswoman says: “Whittaker was approached from outside the company. His decision to leave is not linked to Mair’s move to a different part of the business.”

Jamieson, who was responsible for businesses such as Peters Savoury Products, Brossard UK and Kaysens, will continue to report to GrandMet Foods (UK) managing director Ian McMahon. He will maintain a watching brief over his former trading group responsibilities until a successor is appointed.
