As the **Customer Value Manager** you’ll effectively partner with the merchandise trading team to deliver value in relation to Pricing, Supplier agreements and cost optimisation, as well as ensuring category strategies are executed inline with the Endeavour Group strategy.

Experience with manufacturing will be pivotal in supporting our vertically integrated manufacturing division. Unlocking cost efficiencies and driving more balanced decision making to support overall positive category outcomes.

**Beer Category**:Dominated by 2 large multinational brewers, focus areas for this category involve strategic supplier planning and collaboration (unlocking fair share of the profit pool). Trade planning optimization (price/promo/execution) will be a priority. Along with creating sustainable long term joint business partnerships.

As an experienced commercial executive, you will use your advanced analytical and influencing skills to proactively drive effective price & promotional setting, influence supplier negotiations and identify cost optimisation opportunities across the supplier and logistics cost base.
