Join a well-established, market-leading business with over 100 years of success behind it — and an exciting growth strategy ahead.

As the company continues to expand its own-label portfolio, they're looking for a commercially driven Own Label Product Manager to take ownership of the product journey from initial concept through to launch.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys combining product development, supplier management, commercial thinking and creativity to bring new products to market.

The Role

You'll play a key role in developing and growing the own-label portfolio, including:

* Developing and delivering own-label product and brand strategies

* Managing the full product lifecycle from concept to launch

* Identifying new opportunities through market and competitor analysis

* Working with Marketing to develop strong brand propositions and packaging

* Managing suppliers and negotiating cost, quality and lead times

* Developing and delivering the Own Label Development Plan

* Ensuring products meet all legal, safety and quality requirements

* Signing off samples, packaging and final production

* Working closely with Product Management, Procurement, Purchasing and Marketing

About You

We're looking for someone with experience in product development, buying or category management, ideally within an own-label/private-label environment.

You'll bring:

* Strong supplier management and negotiation skills

* Commercial awareness and a genuine interest in product innovation

* Understanding of manufacturing, sourcing and compliance

* Excellent project management and organisational skills

* A creative, commercially focused approach

* The flexibility to travel occasionally, around 5%
