Job Details

Operating as an autonomous division of one of the countries most respected food manufacturers, the group has grown exponentially over the last three decades to achieve leadership status that their competitors aspire to. This has created a range of leading business units spanning own label and brand in a variety of categories. Such growth has been achieved, and continues even in the tightest of markets by their key underlying principles of:
Investing in the best people

Their leadership position has been created through the adherence to these principles and the creation of an environment that everyone wants to be part as they receive significant autonomy, development and responsibility. The group is renowned across the industry for its investment in this area.
To achieve their objective of market leadership the senior team now wish to appoint an individual with exposure to category, commericial and brand aspects of the FMCG market capable of leveraging your internal relationships across these functions to develop and execute long term category strategy and vision.
Your eclectic mix of skills, along with passion enthusiasm and vision will enable you, along with the support of the team to create, develop and execute a strategic plan within the category which you will create yourself, consisting of all elements of the brand and category mix.
Catman Jobs specialise in Category Jobs, Trade Marketing Jobs, Customer Marketing Jobs, Shopper marketing Jobs, Merchandising 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.
