Your main goal as Category Manager is to make Tony’s a super strong and relevant category partner for our key customers in the U.S. Market. By doing this you help achieve Tony’s U.S. sales targets which in turn will inspire other chocolate companies to follow our example. You know how to handle market data, draw conclusions, and advise our key partners and internal stakeholders. Besides being analytical you also understand the CPG selling process, are entrepreneurial, creative, and can activate the Tony’s brand in an engaging way.

  • Translate clear insights to actionable plans to grow the category with Tony’s
  • Discover consumer trends and look at segmentation, price sensitivities, competitor analyses and different sales channels and accounts
  • Add to the Tony’s brand by creating impactful, yet colorful Tony’s-style presentations

  • Build strong partnerships with Tony’s syndicated data suppliers and the third-party report providers to bring those relationships to the next level

 

the ideal candidate

You have a background of 3-5 years’ experience in Category Management. To understand the Tony’s world of category management, you have spent at least some of these years in the FMCG industry. During your time as a Category Manager you have developed knowledge with Nielsen, IRI and/or SPINS. With your background from a company with structured Category Management, you’re now ready and excited to take the next step to shape and develop Tony’s brand-new Category Management role in New York. What data would be relevant? Which next steps should be derived from the results of your analysis? You know what it takes to play the Category Management cards in the right way!

Besides, you speak English on a (near-) native level and are not only a good communicator in presentations, but also like to build strong, supportive relationships with internal and external stakeholders. Keeping multiple chocolate bars spinning? You’ve got it covered! On top of that, you feel a clear connection with our core values: outspoken, willful, entrepreneurial & makes you smile. And last but not least, you can make chocolate from anything.
