Mangere, New Zealand Foodstuffs North Island Full time

We’re searching for an experienced Product Manager to join our team to help us with growing and nurturing one of Aotearoa New Zealand’s go-to grocery brands alongside developing a comprehensive Own Brands portfolio for Foodstuffs

**Ko wai mātou - A bit about us**:
Foodstuffs Own brands is a 100% New Zealand owned and operated organisation, owned by the two Foodstuffs regional co-operatives. Foodstuffs Own Brands is the business responsible for product development, sourcing, and quality control on private label products exclusively for the Foodstuffs retail and wholesale banners nationally. We own several brands, the most iconic of which is the much-loved Pams brand which holds the title of New Zealand’s leading grocery brand. Our brands have been such a big part of the kitchens, dinner tables and homes of New Zealanders for over 80 years. From our humble beginnings when we supplied just Pams baking and custard powder, we now boast a range of over 3000 products with everything from baking to butchery, to fresh produce and grocery. We aim to inspire New Zealanders with affordable, high quality, innovative products that are supported by simple yet delicious recipes, mealtime solution and household tips.

**A bit about the role’s day to day**:
Lead the development and governance of customer-led Private Label and Exclusive brands, ensuring they are the preferred choice for New Zealanders.

Oversee the lifecycle of Own Brand products, develop category strategies aligned with regional goals, and drive performance through reviews, NPD, and renovations.

Build strong relationships with regional category managers and suppliers, manage supply agreements, performance KPIs, and support procurement and cost negotiations.

Manage cross-functional project teams to deliver category action plans, support and coach direct reports, and contribute to a high-performing team culture

**Some helpful experience to have**:
You’ll have fabulous communication skills and an understanding of how a cooperative model works. You need to be comfortable working in a highly engaged and collaborative team environment and understand the intricacies of stakeholder engagement. If you have a solid background in a retail environment and you’re looking for your next challenge, then this could be the role for you.
