About the Opportunity

An opportunity has arisen for a Category Manager to join our Trade Merchandise team at our Heatherton National Support Office. This is a high‑impact role where you’ll take ownership of one of our trade categories in our hardware pillar.

With the support of a Category Assistant, you’ll work closely with major suppliers, drive promotional programs that genuinely excite customers, and partner with stores to shape ranges that win on value, relevance and profitability.

This role offers deep exposure to supplier negotiations, promotional strategy, trend‑led ranging and store collaboration - ideal for a commercially sounded Category Manager who enjoys both strategy and hands‑on execution.

What you’ll be doing

Owning the end‑to‑end performance of a highly strategic category
Managing a large, complex SKU base with a strong focus on commercial outcomes
Building and leading strategic supplier relationships, negotiating pricing, trading terms and promotional plans
Delivering engaging promotional programs that drive sales and customer interest
Partnering closely with stores to gather feedback, shape ranges and ensure the category delivers at store level
Staying on top of customer trends, and category developments to keep the range relevant and market‑leading

You’re likely a match if you have

Proven experience in Category Management, Buying or Merchandise roles
Strong commercial acumen with confidence negotiating with large, branded suppliers
Experience managing complex ranges, pricing structures and promotional programs
A customer‑first mindset with the ability to translate trends into commercial outcomes
Strong analytical skills, with the ability to balance margin, income and competitiveness
The confidence to partner cross‑functionally with stores, suppliers and internal teams
Knowledge in Trade/Building Supplies will be beneficial but not essential

What’s on offer

We’re proud to offer a workplace that supports your well‑being, growth, and belonging:

️ Extra Leave: Enjoy a 5th week of annual leave, 2 well‑being days, plus 1 volunteer day annually
Career Growth: Endless learning and development opportunities
Parental Leave: 12 weeks of gender‑neutral paid leave for primary carers
Inclusive Culture: Bronze Employer for LGBTQ Inclusion

️ Neutral Pay Gap: Gender pay gap under 5% (WGEA 2024–2025)

Mental Health: Gold accreditation by Mental Health Australia
Flexibility: Flex Ready and Family Friendly Workplace accredited
