Job Details

Catman Jobs are currently recruiting this opportunity on behalf of our client in Yorkshire. 

The Business

Operating in a year round category with seasonal spikes, our client is looking to build on their ongoing growth by recruiting a Junior Category Manager. The individual will compliment their existing team who are focused upon delivering shopper/consumer solutions to the UK retailers on their branded and own label products. As a top 2 competitor within their category, keeping one step ahead of the curve is vital to success.

The Role

To further enhance their ability to address retailer category needs, the business now seeks a highly skilled Junior Category Manager to work alongside the retailer and account manager to implement shopper marketing strategies and further develop the category as a whole for the retailer. Working on a major high street retailer account, the individual will sit within an integral part of the business' customer base.

The Individual

Ideally you will already be operating at or close to Junior Category Manager level within either a branded or own label FMCG environment looking for further development. You must already have a solid understanding of category analysis and EPOS data within an FMCG environment. Equally important is a driven attitude, combined with the ability and desire to make a difference within your team.

The Opportunity

For the right individual, this progressive step can provide further exciting career enhancement both in terms of the development of your skill set and the responsibility associated with the role.

Catman Jobs specialise in Category Management Jobs, Trade Jobs, Customer Jobs, Shopper Marketing Jobs and insight Jobs across the UK.

Company

Catmanjob.com was created in 2006 as a specialist division specifically supporting category, shopper and net revenue professionals.  The brain child of Paul Nyman who realised at the time “we just didn’t know enough about category management and how it affects a business”.  Catmanjobs operates as a division of  Paul Nyman Consultancy, which was established in 2004 to support wider FMCG recruitment markets, after Paul was made redundant, and toured the UK recruitment market seeking employment to pay the mortgage.

During this journey he identified some of the most important characteristics for job seekers hunting for a new role:

  • Understand what  I, as a candidate can do.
  • Honestly tell me why I cannot perform in the role I applied for.
  • Know how your clients can advance my career.
  • Get back to me.
  • Don’t BS me. 

These have become entwined in the approach the team at Paul Nyman Consultancy take to support individuals achieve career success across the UK and Europe.

We offer not just recruitment, but wider career support and development through workshops which include national and international recruitment and development experience.

Not just a recruiter.

We enjoy being career developers.
