About SuperK

SuperK is a membership-led value retail chain built for Bharat. Operating across Tier 3 to Tier 5 towns in India, we bring a modern retail experience to small-town India—without compromising on value, quality, or trust. With 150+ stores, a growing E-Com presence, and deep customer love, we’re reimagining how India shops.

Backed by marquee investors like Blume Ventures and XEED Ventures, we’re scaling fast—and marketing plays a critical role in driving that growth.

About the Role

We are looking for a Category Manager – Food & Beverages who will own the end-to-end performance of the category.

You will work closely with sourcing, supply chain, marketing, and store operations teams to ensure the category delivers strong growth, margins, and customer value.

  • Own the complete P&L for the Food & Beverages category
  • Define and execute category growth strategy
  • Build and optimize assortment based on customer demand, seasonality, and regional preferences
  • Ensure right pricing architecture aligned to value positioning and margin goals

  • Identify, onboard, and manage key vendors and brand partners
  • Negotiate commercial terms, margins, and trade agreements
  • Drive joint business planning (JBP) with strategic brands
  • Build long-term partnerships to unlock exclusives and better commercial structures

Monetization & Revenue Enhancement

  • Drive monetization through trade marketing, promotions, visibility programs, and brand-funded initiatives
  • Identify new revenue levers within the category
  • Optimize promotional strategies to balance growth and profitability

Availability & Inventory Alignment

  • Ensure high on-shelf availability across stores
  • Work closely with supply chain and planning teams to reduce stock-outs and dead stock
  • Maintain updated assortment and pricing across stores and E-Com

Data & Performance Tracking

  • Track category KPIs: revenue, margin, inventory turns, sell-through, vendor performance
  • Use data to identify growth opportunities and corrective actions
  • Continuously improve category playbook and processes

What we would like to see in you

  • 3–6 years of experience in Category Management within FMCG/Retail/E-Com/Quick Commerce
  • Strong exposure to Food & Beverages category
  • Proven experience in vendor management and commercial negotiations
  • Experience driving brand partnerships and monetization initiatives

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
