About the Role

As Category Manager, you will be responsible for developing and executing strategic category management across designated electrical, mechanical and connectivity portfolios.

Success in the role requires balancing day-to-day business needs with long-term category development.

• The ability to communicate clearly and create alignment across multiple stakeholders.

Success in the Role

Success in this role is defined by your ability to strengthen the category's commercial performance while supporting the company's long-term growth ambitions. You are able to balance operational business demands with strategic development initiatives and ensure that category priorities continue to move forward even when immediate challenges arise.

Through strong collaboration with Product Development, suppliers, and internal stakeholders, you help shape a product portfolio that supports customer needs, business objectives, and future market opportunities. At the same time, you build credibility and productive relationships across the organisation by addressing differing viewpoints with professionalism, respect, and a clear focus on achieving the best outcome for the business.
 

What We Offer

• A strategically important role with a strong connection to the company's future direction.
• The opportunity to influence category strategies, supplier relationships, and business decisions.
