We’re looking for a proactive, highly skilled Category Development Manager to support our Global Travel business by delivering world‑class planograms, flawless product data, and continuous improvements to our space management tools and processes. This role is perfect for someone who loves precision, thrives in fast‑paced environments, and takes initiative without being asked.

What You’ll Do

⭐ Planogram Excellence

• Build high-quality, insight‑led planograms and product layouts for Global Travel customers.
• Use industry-standard planogram software with confidence — you’ve done this before in FMCG and know how to create space‑efficient, commercially smart outputs.

⭐ Product Master Data Ownership

• Own the Total GT Product Library, ensuring robust master data accuracy across all formats.
• Proactively seek and secure new product information by connecting with key Category Development and commercial stakeholders across the wider business — you don’t wait to be asked.

⭐ Innovation, Technology & Vendor Management

• Track evolving ways of working and emerging technologies that can elevate our space management capability.
• Lead the relationship with our planogram software vendor, ensuring we leverage the latest features, updates, and efficiencies.
• Feed back on functionality needs and identify opportunities to streamline how the Global Travel team operates.

⭐ Process & Tool Development

• Improve existing processes, templates, and toolkits to help the team deliver recommendations with greater speed and accuracy.
• Build new analytical templates and automated functionalities that support rapid, consistent planogram creation.

⭐ Detail-Driven Execution

• Deliver planograms and product libraries with absolute accuracy and consistency.
• Enjoy the craft of space planning — from tidy datasets to perfectly structured visual outputs.

About You

You’ll excel in this role if you:

• Have proven experience using planogram tools in an FMCG environment.
• Are highly detail‑orientated and energised by space planning work.
• Take initiative, spot gaps, and independently drive solutions.
• Are naturally organised, data‑confident, and comfortable owning end‑to‑end processes.
• Have strong communication skills and can build connections across a global network.
• Are ideally available as a contractor who can hit the ground running.

No specific degree required; relevant FMCG category management and planogram experience is more important.
