Rohlik is changing the way people shop for food — fast, high-quality, and built around what customers actually want. And Private Label (Food) is one of our most important categories. It’s where we can truly stand out — through taste, quality, value for money, and products customers come back for again and again.
Now we’re looking for a Senior Category Manager who will take full ownership of the strategy, performance and further development of this key category. Someone who’s great with numbers and suppliers, thinks long‑term, and can also handle the day‑to‑day reality of a fast‑moving business.
Why this role is exciting
* You’ll have a real impact on what (and how well) hundreds of thousands of customers eat every day.
* You’ll own one of the most visible and strategically important categories at Rohlik.
* You’ll have space to build strategy — not just execute someone else’s plan.
* You’ll work in an environment where decisions are made fast and based on data, not hierarchy.
* You’ll see immediate impact on sales, margin and customer satisfaction.
What you’ll do
As a Senior Category Manager for Private Label (Food) you will own the full commercial performance of the category — from strategy to everyday execution.
Specifically, you will:
* Take full ownership for the strategy, performance and growth of Private Label (Food).
* Lead negotiations with key suppliers, Joint Business Plans and regular category reviews.
* Optimise assortment, pricing and promotional plan to drive sales and margin growth.
* Work closely with Marketing, Pricing and Supply Chain to ensure smooth execution — from campaigns to availability.
* Contribute to regional sourcing initiatives and cross‑market projects.
* Lead and develop team members responsible for sub‑categories or specific suppliers.
What we’re looking for
We’re looking for an experienced category leader who combines commercial instinct, analytical thinking and real ownership.
* Minimum 3 years of experience in category management or buying, at least 2 years in a senior/lead role.
* Experience with Private Label / own-brand food (other FMCG categories are a plus).
* Proven track record in growing categories and delivering commercial results (ideally in FMCG or e‑commerce).
* Strong negotiation skills, data‑driven mindset and strategic thinking.
* Experience leading cross‑functional projects and influencing stakeholders.
* Fluent English; Czech language is a strong advantage.
Nice to have:
* Experience managing categories across multiple countries.
* Strong supplier network in the local FMCG / food market.
