Brand Manager/Category Manager

We’re looking for a Category Manager who thrives where technology meets commercial strategy. Someone who doesn’t just analyse data, but turns it into decisive action. Someone who sees patterns before others do, spots opportunities in complex markets, and isn’t satisfied until the numbers move fast and in the right direction.

If you’re energized by building smart assortments, optimizing performance through data, and driving measurable results in a tech-driven environment, then this role is built for you. You’ll have the freedom to experiment, the tools to scale, and the responsibility to own a category that directly impacts our growth.

Our client company specializes in distributing innovative tech products across Europe, connecting global innovations with local markets. With offices in Europe and Asia, the company actively seeks out cutting-edge, reliable, and smart products from around the world. Backed by over a decade of experience in technology and distribution, our client company is committed to providing a flexible and personal approach to its partners.

• Manage the full product lifecycle: selection, onboarding, pricing, and phase-out.
• Analyse market trends, customer behaviour, and competitor activity to identify opportunities.
• Optimize assortment, pricing, and promotional plans to maximize revenue and margin.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with suppliers and negotiate commercial terms.
• Collaborate with Marketing, Sales, Procurement, and Finance to support category performance.
• Monitor KPIs such as sales, profitability, stock levels, and category growth.
• Prepare regular performance reports and present insights to management.
• Lead category improvement projects and contribute to long-term business planning.

• A Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Business, Marketing, Economics, or a related field.
• Proven experience as a Category Manager, Product Manager, or similar commercial role.
• Excellent negotiation and stakeholder-management abilities.
• Experience working with suppliers and understanding of supply chain dynamics.
• A commercial mindset with a focus on profitability and customer value.
