As the driving force behind category performance, you will take ownership of all aspects of your portfolio, from managing supplier terms to recovering costs associated with residuals and overstocks.

  • Identify and pursue new business opportunities, while expanding existing partnerships using a joint business planning approach.
  1. Supplier & Customer Collaboration:
  • Build strong relationships with suppliers to negotiate competitive pricing and profit margins.
  • Create tailored product ranges and promotional activities to meet customer needs.
  1. Inventory & Cost Management:
  • Recover costs for residuals, overstocks, and out-of-date inventory.
  • Implement processes to optimize cash flow and reduce aged or disputed supplier debt.
  1. Category Leadership:
  • Represent the organization at meetings, events, and industry seminars to build a robust network of suppliers and customers.
  • Provide customers with data-driven insights and solutions through a category management approach.
  1. Compliance & Best Practices:
  • Ensure all activities related to medicines and medical devices comply with Good Distribution Practice (GDP).
  • Maintain internal and external communication channels to promote transparency and collaboration.
  1. Marketing & Sales Tools:
  • Deliver promotional materials, sales aids, and other relevant resources within agreed deadlines.


Candidate Requirements:

Experience:

  • Proven track record in category management, sales, or business development within sectors such as Wholesale, Retail, or Pharmacy.
  • Strong negotiation skills and experience working with suppliers to deliver win-win solutions.

Skills:

  • Excellent communication and decision-making abilities with stakeholders at all levels.
  • Analytical mindset with the ability to develop data-driven growth strategies.
  • Proficiency in managing inventory costs and addressing supply chain inefficiencies.

Knowledge:

  • Familiarity with Good Distribution Practice (GDP) standards, particularly for medical devices or medicinal products, is highly desirable.

Education:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Business, Marketing, or a related field is preferred but not essential.


What’s on Offer:

  • A competitive salary and benefits package.
  • The opportunity to play a pivotal role in shaping category strategies across multiple key sectors.
  • A dynamic and supportive work environment with opportunities for professional development.


If you are ready to take ownership of category growth and thrive in a role where innovation, collaboration, and strategy drive success, we’d love to hear from you.
