Merchandising Manager Jobs in Kincardineshire
Kincardineshire was a self-contained council centred of the capital Stonehaven, but is now part of the committee of Aberdeenshire, and retains its boundaries as a lieutenancy area. It is on the east coast of Scotland, starting just south of Aberdeen, and is bordered by Angus and Aberdeenshire.
The county town of Stonehaven is the largest settlement in the historic county, with a population of around 10,000 people, which provides the best opportunity for Merchandising Manager jobs. However the best place to look for management and executive positions in Kincardineshire is undoubtedly Aberdeen, which boomed after the discovery of North Sea Oil and remains an important centre for this industry, and in turn the Scottish and UK economy.
