there was one in the times last week for cadwell and (I think) brands as general manager....

Boing!

Hope someone's going to have a crack at this. It's a great job, and should go one of the Ducati faithfull!

Went there to try on the Simpson range and the sales man was great, even after i told him i wasn't going to buy there and then!!

Yorkie.

They're a good bunch, and the company is really going places. It was operating out of a tiny shop on the north circ few years back, and is now a multi-million pound business. James is a very talented MD and I'm sure he's a decent boss.

Another job I'd be seriously interested in.

I don't have a degree though nor the marketing experience ...

Oh well.

It asks for experience or a degree, if you have one, you don't need the other (At least to get through the CV sift...)

If I wanted the job, I'd still be on the phone asking anyway and selling myself to them, just in case. Sometimes passion about something is better that a whole bunch of degrees.
