Developing the category vision and strategies for 2 major FMCG categories is the challenge of these exciting roles with a global player in the food market.  Working alongside the brand teams and in conjunction with our data agencies, you'll use category, retailer, shopper and consumer data to identify category issues and drivers - using this to build a strategy and work with teams across the business to drive brand innovation, promotional, pricing, display and packaging initiatives with our major customers.  Supported by a team of 2 Category Managers, you'll sell in strategies and tactics to customers and internally.  You'll also highlight potential category/retailer or brand issues before they become established - ensuring that the business responds to opportunities & threats more quickly than competitors.

Our Ideal Candidate

  

With a minimum of five years robust experience in category management with one or more leading FMCG companies, these are roles to challenge the best.  You will have extensive experience of using continuous retail, shopper and consumer data to develop category strategies and may also be familiar with consumer segmentation studies.  You will have worked closely with the grocery multiples to implement promotional, display and ranging strategies and plans and will be accustomed to building and credibly telling a category and shopper story and delivering this with impact.  Strong interpersonal skills are key for these roles - building and maintaining relationships within the organisation and externally with major customers.
