Job Details

Investment for growth, desire for expansion, opportunity for development and stretch beyond your comfort zone to keep you on the upward curve… Sound like hard work or an exciting career opportunity?

The Business

Park Cake Bakeries is a North West based manufacturing business supplying the major multiples across various categories within Bakery and Chilled Desserts.

The Role and Individual

The role has come about through a proposal to the retailer to make sure that they're offering the very best Category insight.

You will be responsible for delivering and implementing mutually beneficial category plans, derived from market leading insight. You will have experience of leading category management input to major grocery multiples, ideally M&S, including building in-depth databases, category range review presentations and innovation sessions. A proven FMCG track record combined with use of Neilsen, Kantar and IRI data will put you in a prime position to make an immediate impact.

The Opportunity

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced or developing Category Manager to step up in to a more senior role with responsibility for making real change. Strong team values of working together and shared vision combined with a friendly place to work with a dynamic corporate environment.

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.
