We are Vilgain 🚀, a fast‑growing food & e‑commerce brand changing the market of nutrition, home care, and lifestyle products. We are looking for a Category Manager with strong product sense, a commercial mindset, and the ability to build long‑term supplier relationships.
What you’ll own
Full ownership of assigned shelf‑stable food categories.
Managing the process from taking over the brief to launching the product on the market.
Sourcing and selecting the right suppliers, manufacturers, ingredients, and packaging, including purchasing and supplier relationship management.
Monitoring trends and identifying new opportunities.
Working closely with production, quality, and purchasing teams to ensure a smooth production process — including availability, quality, lead times, and supplier capacity.
Collaborating with marketing on product launches.
Who we’re looking for
You have strong experience in category management, product management, or private label product development within food/FMCG.
You understand shelf‑stable food, the supplier market, and how a product is built from brief to launch.
You can manage a category strategically, but you are not afraid to go into detail.
You have a commercial mindset — you think about margin, pricing, volume, differentiation, forecast, and real product performance.
You know how to prioritise — more products do not automatically mean a better portfolio.
You have high ownership, strong drive for results, and can handle a fast‑paced environment.
You want to create products with the potential to succeed not only in Czechia, but also across international markets.
What we offer
A fast‑growing e‑commerce brand where your work has real and visible impact.
A team that sticks together, works hard, and still knows how to have fun.
5 weeks of holiday and a Multisport card.
Internal education, product credits, and other benefits.
