Job Details

Catman Jobs are currently recruiting a Category Manager for a well respected food business in the North West.

With a growing category team dedicated to UK retail customers our client is looking for an indvidual defined by their drive and ambition to join the business as it strives toward continued success.

The Business

Our client is one of the most well respected food manufacturers in the UK for both the quality of their products and the development of their people. Due to an increasing demand for better and better category managers across the group the business are looking for an individual to join their team that could see the right person jump start their career within the discipline.

The Role

Developing crucial relationships with sales and supply internally, you will be the glue that holds the commercial strategy together whilst tactically improving important major multiple accounts for the business. Driving forwards the category will become a passion for you and you will be expected to lead through sound analysis, creative solutions and clear strategy. 

The Individual

As category manager, you will either be operating to the category manager level looking for a step up onto a larger multiple account, or looking to take the next leap from a more junior position. You will already have exposure within category management in an FMCG environment; however this comes second in importance to the right attitude.

The Opportunity

As reward for your dedication and commitment you will receive unprecedented support and development opportunities which will allow you to progress at your own pace. Where you go from here is up to you?

CatMan jobs specialise in the FMCG Category Jobs, Trade Marketing Jobs, Customer Marketing 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.
