Job Details

The Business

A major chilled manufacturer based in the North West who have built their reputation on delivering quality from beginning to end. Maintaining high standards of excellence and authenticity across their multiple UK sites ensure that they have become premier providers of quality made food without compromise. 

The Opportunity

In recent years the company has done well in terms of increasing retailer presence and winning business over their competitors. Part of this success is due to their recognition of the importance of Category and valuing the insights that it brings to the business. Also, they invest heavily in data to drive insight and ensure they are one step ahead of the competition.    

As a result they seek to appoint a Category and Marketing Manager to their existing category team who will be able to upscale the day to day category delivery platform though identifying and establishing a long term vision for the next five years. 

The Individual

To be successful within this role you will have operated within a food environment, ideally chilled and been involved in creating category strategies that extend beyond just the day to day but encompass all aspects of the commercial, marketing and NPD operations.  Your understanding of these additional areas will be critical to the success that you create in a business that will reward you with challenge, personal growth and the opportunity to engage at a senior leadership level.

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.
