I’m often asked what’s happening in the market?    I guess I’m perfectly placed to gauge this, having daily conversations with professionals in food and drink, keeping an eye on the press and watching vacancies around the industry.  I get a good feel for what’s gong on, and it seems, particulary in commerical anyway that maybe, just maybe the tide is starting to turn.  Don’t like to be too premature, but there seems to have been a run of vacancies posted on the Grocer.co.uk, Commercial professionals are feeling loved again, as they start to talk about the head-hunt call they got last week and theres a real energy around the industry - although that’s probably down to the September launch window – only 12 weeks to go you know!  Everyone I’ve been talking to lately is soo busy, but in a good way, I think!
