Job Description
Big growth. Big brands. Big energy.
This is YOUR opportunity to join one of Australia's most exciting consumer retail businesses — fast-moving, high-growth and completely customer obsessed. With hundreds of stores nationally, they have a huge focus on beauty, health services, wellness and customer experience. This is a national organisation where trends move quickly, categories evolve constantly and careers can seriously take off.n
n
n And the category? Skincare...and its one of the retailer's strongest-performing categories — delivering double-digit growth, driving front-of-store performance and constantly evolving with new brands, new trends and endless consumer demand.n
n
Why You'll Love It:
n
n
Work in one of the most exciting growth categories in retail
n
Huge exposure to suppliers, major brands and cross-functional teams
n
Broad involvement across promotions, pricing, retail media and category activity
n
Fast-paced environment where no two days are the same
n
Genuine career pathway toward Category Management
n
Join a business that is growing, evolving and winning market share
n
Hybrid working with minimum 2 days in office
n
What You'll Be Doing:
n
n This is not a quiet, sit-back kind of Assistant Category Manager role. You'll be right in the middle of a busy, high-volume category — helping coordinate promotions, pricing, supplier activity, category administration and commercial execution across the skincare portfolio.n
n One minute you're proofing catalogue activity...the next you're managing pricing updates, reviewing supplier submissions, analysing category performance and/or coordinating campaign activity with marketing and retail media teams.n
n
You'll support the Category Manager across:
n
n
n
Promotional and campaign execution
n
Pricing,



product maintenance and promotional coordination
n
Supplier communications and relationship management
n
Category reporting, competitor analysis and sales insights
n
Promotional forecasting and campaign support
n
Retail media and branded activity
n
Category administration and data accuracy
n
Cross-functional stakeholder coordination
n
Multiple projects, deadlines and competing priorities
n
About You:
n
n You're commercially switched-on, highly organised and love operating in busy retail environments where pace is everything.n
n
You could currently be:
n
n
n
An Assistant Category Manager in Pharmacy, Beauty, FMCG, Grocery, Hardware or another fast-paced, high-volume retail workplace
n
Or in another retail support office function....and ready to step up (or across) into this role
n
Most importantly, you:
n
n
n
Love pace, variety and juggling priorities
n
Are highly organised and detail obsessed
n
Have strong numerical and analytical capability
n
You are a Wizz at excel especially in V-Look Ups & Pivot Tables
n
Enjoy building supplier and stakeholder relationships
n
Thrive in deadline-driven environments
n
Are proactive, resilient and solutions-focused
n
Get excited by consumer trends and fast-moving retail categories
n
This is a role for someone who wants exposure, pace and growth. A role where you'll learn fast, build commercial capability and work in one of retail's most exciting categories.n
n
Why This Role Stands Out:
n
n This isn't a slow-moving corporate role. It's fast, it's commercial and it's highly cooperative. For the right person, this is an opportunity to accelerate your retail career in a business with serious momentum.n
