			<description><![CDATA[Summary of key accountabilities and responsibilities: 

 Business Partner 

A fundamental part of the role is to be the key business partner to 
the Managing Director providing financial support, advice and 
challenge on the strategic direction of the portfolio and working 
with the Managing Director to review and manage the 
performance of the businesses in the portfolio.

Technology and its adoption form a key facet of the entire 
division’s ongoing positioning as demonstrated by the IT and e-
commerce investment across the division and assisting in driving 
these projects to successful conclusions will be a key focus of this 
role 

   
 * Sector and group liaison 
 

The division is responsible for all of the reporting of its businesses 
with information being purely communicated through to the sector 
and then group teams. This control can expect to increase and as 
such appropriate communication will be key to providing the right 
level of insight and information to internal stakeholders. 

   
 * Presentation 
 

Involvement alongside the rest of the divisional management 
team in the presentation of the business to internal and external 
audiences to promote the benefits, advantages and strengths of

assist this communication. Increasing external focus is being 
placed on the benefits of our market and this will be a key area of 
involvement on an ongoing basis.
