NZ FMCG SECTOR…..WHAT’S TRENDING?

Hamish Marr gives a snap-shot of NZ’s FMCG sector

  • NZ FMCG marketing roles continue to move offshore
  • FMCG sales people need more advanced analytical skills
  • continued emergence of Category function but Foodstuffs merger creates a “wait and see” approach
  • increasing competition for the best up-and-coming FMCG talent
    • counter offers at an all time high
    • candidates are increasingly knowledgeable and discerning about their career options
  • ongoing focus on costs

Short and sweet!
