Job Details
Product Manager | Consumer Goods
This is a Product Manager role for someone who wants real ownership of a category, not just responsibility for keeping existing products ticking along. You'll join a global consumer goods business with an ambitious growth plan and take ownership of one of its most innovative product categories. The portfolio is already worth around $10m locally, with significant headroom for growth and new products already in the pipeline. The products are designed around changing consumer lifestyles, with innovation focused on areas including smaller households and increasingly mobile consumers. You'll be encouraged to become a genuine category expert - understanding the customer, competitors and products inside out.
The opportunity
Working within a lean, ambitious marketing team, you'll have end-to-end responsibility for your product portfolio, from strategy and innovation through to launch, go-to-market and ongoing commercial performance. You'll identify market opportunities, shape the product road map and work with international teams to bring new products into the Australian market. A major new launch is already planned for next month, with plenty more prospect to build the category from there.
This is also a commercially accountable role. You'll manage the P&L; for your category, including pricing, investment, margin and marketing spend, while using consumer and category insights to identify where the next growth opportunity sits.
What you'll be doing
Owning the product lifecycle from market opportunity and concept through to launch




Developing annual product and marketing plans to drive revenue, margin and market share
Managing category P&L;, pricing, investment and performance
Building go-to-market strategies across retail, digital and other channels
Using consumer, competitor and market insights to identify new opportunities
Partnering with Sales, Digital and Trade Marketing to execute launches
Developing retailer-specific launch and activation plans
Working with international teams on future innovation and portfolio development
About you
3+ years experience across product management, brand management or a closely related marketing role within consumer goods or FMCG
Commercially minded and comfortable owning a P&L;, but equally interested in the consumer - why they buy, how they use products and where the category could go next
Hands-on team player, comfortable moving between strategy and execution, working autonomously and taking responsibility for getting things done
Why this role?
You'll be joining a small marketing team where your work is highly visible and the growth of your category genuinely sits in your hands. There's significant ambition for the portfolio,



a strong pipeline of innovation and the opportunity to build your career as the business grows. You'll also have structured training and annual development conversations to support your progression.
And one of the better perks of working in product: you'll actually get the products to take home, use and understand for yourself. The expectation is that you become the expert on what you're selling - not someone who only knows it from a PowerPoint deck.
Benefits and Perks
Structured training and annual development conversations
Opportunity to work with the products you sell, test them, and become a category expert
Visibility in a small marketing team with significant impact and growth potential
