Category Marketing Manager - #2080483

Some category roles are about maintaining reports and supporting retailer requests.

This role is about shaping strategy.

We're working with a leading branded FMCG business whose products can be found in millions of UK households. With a strong track record of innovation, category leadership and continued investment, they are looking to appoint a Category Manager to help drive the next phase of growth.

Working across major grocery customers, you'll play a central role in developing category strategies, identifying growth opportunities and turning shopper and market insight into commercial action. You'll work closely with Sales, Marketing and wider commercial teams, helping influence decisions around ranging, merchandising, promotions and long-term category development.

What makes this opportunity different is the influence you'll have. Category is a highly valued function within the business, with a genuine voice in commercial decision-making and regular exposure to senior stakeholders internally and externally.

This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys understanding what drives category performance and using insight to shape better decisions. You may already be working in Category, Shopper Marketing or a broader FMCG commercial role and be looking for a position where your recommendations carry greater weight and your impact is more visible.

The business offers a collaborative, ambitious culture where people are encouraged to challenge thinking, share ideas and take ownership. You'll be joining a well-respected team with strong retailer relationships, recognised brands and a clear commitment to future growth.

If you're looking for a Category Manager role where you'll help shape strategy rather than simply report on it, we'd love to hear from you.
