Job description

You’ll own the performance of a portfolio of product ranges end to end: what we sell, how it’s priced and how it’s brought to market. This is a marketing and commercial role with a technical edge — you’ll be as comfortable reviewing margin and stock data as you are talking through load ratings with a supplier or a customer. You’ll work closely with sales, marketing, purchasing and the warehouse, and report to the Head of Marketing.

Key responsibilities

• Act as the gate between R&D, Marketing and Sales for product information
• Own range strategy for categories — identify gaps, rationalise underperformers, and bring new products to market
• Set and review pricing to hit margin and volume targets, and monitor competitor positioning
• Analyse sales, margin and stock data to guide buying and range decisions
• Run product launches — specs, imagery, product data, pricing, sales enablement, marketing collateral and provide initial inventory and sales forecasts
• Own the accuracy of product content and images across our ERP, website, catalogues and collateral
• Support the sales team as the technical authority on product, including complex customer enquiries
• Work with Purchasing on forecasting and inventory levels to balance availability against holding cost
• Keep on top of relevant compliance, safety standards and external factors which could influence demand
• Extract the features and benefits of products and work with Marketing to deliver the key messages

About you

• 3-5+ years’ experience in product management, category management or product marketing, ideally in industrial, trade or B2B distribution
• Relevant tertiary qualifications or experience in lieu
• Commercial fluency — you understand margin, landed cost and the levers that move both
• Strong analytical skills and confidence working in Excel and ERP or inventory systems
• A practical, technical mindset — you can read a spec sheet and ask the right questions
• Clear communication and the ability to influence across sales, marketing, R&D and operations
• Self-starter who can run their own projects without close supervision
