At Carnival UK, we bring unforgettable holiday happiness to millions of guests through our world-class cruise brands. From innovative dining and bar concepts to exciting onboard experiences, our teams help shape every aspect of the guest journey.
As we continue to evolve our food and beverage offering, we're looking for a commercially minded, highly analytical and results-driven Senior Beverage Commercial Executive to join our Food & Beverage Development Team within Guest Experience.
This is an exciting opportunity to play a central role in the development, commercial performance and implementation of beverage programmes across our fleet.
Working at the intersection of category management, commercial strategy, product development and operational delivery, you will help shape the future of our beverage proposition through robust data analysis, strategic insight generation and project leadership.
You'll be responsible for translating complex commercial, operational and guest data into actionable recommendations that drive revenue growth, margin improvement and guest satisfaction. By interrogating data from multiple sources, you'll identify trends, evaluate performance and influence category decisions relating to portfolio optimisation, pricing strategy, promotional activity, supplier selection and product innovation.
From analysing category performance and evaluating supplier proposals to supporting menu development, business cases and new product launches, you'll play a pivotal role in delivering commercially successful beverage programmes that create value for both our guests and the business.
You'll be naturally curious, commercially astute and highly analytical, with the ability to turn data into insight and insight into action.
You enjoy solving business challenges, identifying opportunities and influencing decisions through evidence-based recommendations. Equally comfortable working independently or collaboratively, you'll thrive in a fast-paced environment where priorities evolve and stakeholder engagement is key.
Why Join Us?
This is an opportunity to combine commercial analytics, category management and beverage innovation in one of the most exciting sectors in hospitality.

Holidays are one of life’s greatest pleasures. Having the chance to relax, escape and explore is a magical thing. And there is no better holiday than a cruise.
No one knows cruising like Carnival UK, where talented people from across the globe come together to create unforgettable holiday happiness. As part of the world’s largest holiday travel and leisure company, we take enormous pride in bringing to life two of the most iconic brands from Britain’s rich seafaring heritage, P&O Cruises and Cunard. Collectively they have been delivering unbridled joy, boundless adventure and lifelong memories to millions of people for over 350 years. And in a multi-million pound global holiday market, where cruising has barely scratched the surface, we have the opportunity to do that for many, many more people.
Our diverse yet tight knit teams share high standards, heartfelt values and passion for our purpose. Our Culture Essentials describe the expectations we have for ourselves and of each other, in building a culture that supports safe, sustainable, compliant operations and celebrates diversity, equity and inclusion.
It’s through the successful delivery of these extraordinary travel experiences for our target markets and our distinctive culture, that we hope to become Travel’s Employer of Choice.
