This is a brilliant opportunity for a Buying Manager with Fresh Produce experience to shift their career to an entrepreneurial, forward thinking, values-led business with serious growth potential!
We’re working with a fast-growing food business on a mission to do things differently. They’re tackling food waste head-on by partnering with UK growers and getting food into the hands of consumers in smarter, more sustainable ways. And now, they’re looking for a Category Manager to help drive the next stage of growth.
Role responsibilities:
* Take ownership of category reviews, promotional performance and range analysis, delivering actionable insight that shapes strategy.
* Use data (Nielsen, Kantar, IRI, retailer systems) to build compelling stories that land with major UK retailers.
* Partner with Sales, Marketing and NPD to shape innovation pipelines and support sell-in.
* Present confidently to retail partners, championing the category and identifying growth opportunities.
* Play a key part in building a values-led brand with sustainability at its core.
* A proven Category Manager (or strong Exec ready to step up) with Fresh Produce experience. Min 3+ years.
* Strong with data but just as strong in front of customers — articulate, commercial, and able to influence.
* Collaborative by nature, confident presenting, and motivated by working in a purpose-led, fast-paced environment.
Here, you’ll actually be making a difference. Working directly with growers, you'll shape partnerships that change how surplus produce reaches consumers. You’ll influence product strategy, innovation and long-term growth — all while contributing to a bigger mission to reduce waste and make a positive impact. If you want variety, visibility and a chance to grow your career with a brand making real noise in the market, this is it.
