As Category Manager, you will support the end-to-end performance of one or more product categories across Anow SA — executing on selection, availability, and commercial priorities set by senior category leadership.

You will work closely with Senior Category Managers, Vendor Managers, and Operations to translate category strategy into daily execution.
Key job responsibilities

Maintain and expand the in-stock assortment: identify missing ASINs, coordinate with Vendor Managers to accelerate onboarding, and track listing progress.
Support vendor negotiations and commercial terms under the guidance of senior category leadership.
Conduct regular competitive analysis across Ninja, Keeta, Noon, and Hungerstation to surface selection and availability gaps in your categories.
Prepare category inputs for commercial events (Ramadan, National Day, Back to School): inventory requirements, promotional plans, and readiness checklists.
Coordinate with Replenishment and Inbound to resolve availability issues and ensure category-level in-stock targets are met.
Build and maintain category dashboards and performance reports to support weekly and monthly business reviews.
