August Highlights: Five Selected Placements at JacksonGrant 

 

August was a month of complex mandates and sharp execution. From FMCG to future-focused logistics, our team matched high-calibre talent to roles where impact is immediate, blending commercial acuity, operational depth, and cross-border experience. Here are five placements that capture the breadth of work and the standards we hold ourselves to. 

General Manager — FMCG Manufacturing 

Placed by Atcharawan

A multifaceted FMCG manufacturer needed a GM who could balance P&L ownership with production realities, supply chain volatility, and category growth. We secured a leader with an astute commercial mind, proven factory-floor credibility, and end-to-end supply chain oversight. The result was sharper decision cycles, tighter S&OP discipline, and a clearer path to margin expansion. 

Head of Human Resources — Industrial Machinery

Placed by Nicholas & Kanyanut

This mandate called for a new-gen HR leader, commercial, data-literate, and embedded with operations. Our hire partners closely with plant leadership, elevates people management, and acts as a strategic business partner across workforce planning, performance, and capability building. Expect quicker time-to-competence and better leadership bandwidth on the shop floor. 

Senior Finance (Consolidation) — Global Agriculture

Placed by Supak

For a multi-country agricultural group, consolidation accuracy and cross-border governance are non-negotiable. We placed a finance leader from a Thai-listed company with deep consolidation, IFRS, and audit-ready rigor. The immediate win, cleaner month-end, faster closes, and stronger insight for regional decision-making. 

Senior Financial Analyst — Automation-Led Logistics

Placed by Sureeporn

A logistics innovator at the front edge of automation needed a rare hybrid: strong accountant and sharp analyst. We delivered a professional fluent in financial statements, variance analysis, and automation-driven KPIs. This strengthens pricing models, investment cases, and control without slowing operational speed. 

Pricing Executive — Logistics Partner

Placed by Benyapha

In a market where minutes matter, this role demanded agility across logistics providers, freight forwarders, and airlines to secure best-available rates. Our hire combines tactical speed with structured analysis, enabling smarter spot decisions, tighter margin control, and a more competitive quoting rhythm.
