The opportunity

- Reporting to the Head of Portfolio Baking, you will be a key member of the Baking team driving category performance across Loaf, Occasion Bakery and more
- This is a full category management role where you will manage and champion all category initiatives and strategies for the Retail Baking portfolio.
- With market-leading brands, locally-led strategy, and a culture of "getting stuff done", you will have direct influence and ability to drive the growth and performance of these important categories in the New Zealand market.
Are you excited about

- Leading the Category Review process for the Baking portfolio with Retail customers by providing compelling category-centric insights and recommendations
- Partnering with Brand Marketing on NPD projects, from concept to launch

Does this sound like you
- A NATURAL COLLABORATOR & RELATIONSHIP BUILDER - You enjoy being part of and contributing to a high performing team. As a key connector across multiple functions within a complex matrix business (and external stakeholders) you are confident working with a diverse group of people, know how to build effective relationships and value the expertise of others.
- A MASTER STORYTELLER - Not only are you an expert on the tools (IRI-Circana, Nielsen/Homescan, Quantium, Shopper Intelligence) but you are able to extract actionable insights from raw data and communicate effectively - both written and verbally. You aim to inform, engage, and naturally influence others at all levels of a business in a clear, concise manner that is easy to understand.
- AN OPPORTUNITY HUNTER - You are naturally curious with a proactive mindset, always seeking out the What and Why behind data and able to communicate insight that uncovers opportunities to drive category & portfolio growth.
- HAVE A SAVVY COMMERCIAL MINDSET - You are equally comfortable working your way around a Brand P&L as you are looking at the big picture to understand relevant market & business dynamics and their implications.
This is an excellent opportunity to join a growing business, with the scope to further develop your career. At Goodman Fielder, we aim to be an employer of choice in the food industry where we don't just offer jobs - we offer long term careers.
