Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Own the end-to-end category review programme to improve performance and deliver value for customers and the business. Collaborate with senior leaders across Buying, Pricing, and Analytics to challenge priorities and implement practical changes.
Requires experience in FMCG or a commercial environment with strong influencing and organizational skills. Candidates should possess commercial awareness regarding trade-offs in pricing and range, and ideally have project delivery experience.
Things move quickly here at Foodies, and our Merchandise team is no exception. This is the team that connects the product to the customer – decisions around range, pricing, promotions, and how we show up on the shelf. From partnering with suppliers to digging into the data, we’re always striving to deliver better value and better experiences for our customers.
We're an ambitious bunch who value clarity, accountability and follow-through, and in a nutshell, would describe our culture as “work hard, have a laugh.” We’ve got some real momentum heading into the second half of 2026 and are looking for people passionate about shaping how we win and grow together.
Join us and feed the South.
As our Category Review Delivery Manager, you’ll be the face of category reviews at Foodies – owning the programme end-to-end and making sure the work lands when it needs to, delivering the right outcomes for both customers and the business.
This is a newly created role where you’ll have real scope to shape how we approach category performance. You’ll work across our Merchandise team, forming a clear view on what’s driving value for customers and what isn’t, and landing the changes needed to improve performance.
Reporting to the Head of Strategy and Operations, you’ll work closely with senior leaders across Buying, Pricing, Analytics, Commercial and Retail. There will be competing priorities and different perspectives – you’ll bring it together, using your judgement to challenge, reprioritise, and keep the work focused on what matters. You’ll play a key role in shaping how this role evolves, with the space to make it your own while building depth across commercial thinking, delivery, and stakeholder influence.
This role is based in Christchurch. If you’re currently elsewhere and thinking this could be a good excuse to make a move, great! We’re open to helping make a move happen for the right person.
You’ll understand what drives category performance and know how to bring people and teams on the journey with you. You’ll combine strong judgement with a structured approach, building relationships across the business to work through different perspectives and get things done.
Ideally, you’ll also bring:
