ASSISTANT BUSINESS MANAGER JOB DESCRIPTION

Revenue targets do not manage themselves. An Assistant Business Manager in consumer products and commercial distribution owns the translation of category strategy into local market execution, coordinating licensee budgets, royalty pipelines, and distributor networks where margin discipline and channel alignment determine whether a product line gains or loses shelf presence. The role answers to a Business Manager or Country Lead and operates across retail channels and regional distributor tiers.

Career Impact: Experience managing royalty pipelines and distributor contracts within consumer products category management builds a credential that is recognised across FMCG, licensing, and branded goods hiring markets.

Business Impact: The accounts and licensees you manage directly determine whether category revenue targets are met and whether product gaps in assigned retail channels are identified and closed before they cost market share.
