Who are we?
Headquartered in the UK, with revenues of €2.9 billion and operations in 22 key markets, Nomad Foods is Europe's leading frozen food company. We are a young company, founded only eight years ago, and built around a number of iconic brands (including Birds Eye, Findus and iglo and more recently Ledo and Frikom) that invented the frozen category 100 years ago and continue to set the bar for great taste, nutrition, convenience and affordability. Across everything we do, we are guided by our Purpose - Serving the World with Better Food - and how we can make a positive impact on our Performance, People and the Planet.

- Compliance champion. Ensure adequate level of compliance and risk management, to be key factors in the design and delivery of any Global Mobility programme.
