One growth loop: bring demand in shape the assortment price promote time it to the devotional calendar. You own all four.

Experience: 4 5 years

Role Overview

You own growth and category for Sri Mandir's own D2C channel end-to-end. It's a full-loop role: you generate the demand, decide the assortment (how deep within a category, how wide across categories), set the price and promotion, and orchestrate all of it against India's devotional calendar, the rhythm that drives this business. You run the store like a PL and grow it.

What youll own

- 1 Category vertical horizontal thinking. Build the assortment on two axes: Vertical (go deep): depth and premium ladders within winning categories, drive the NPD pipeline (new SKUs, variants, price tiers). Horizontal (go wide): expand into new categories, cross-sell and basket expansion decide what to add, what to scale, and what to cut.

- 2 Pricing promotion. Set the pricing and margin architecture per category; design the discounting, offers and bundling that grow volume without eroding margin.

- 3 Calendar planning. Build and run the festive / muhurat / seasonal calendar (Sawan, Navratri, Diwali and the rest) as the operating rhythm - plan launches, campaigns, inventory and promotions against each peak, well ahead of time.

- 4 Demand generation (Marketing).



Own the funnel end-to-end - traffic (performance marketing across Meta / Google), in office / in-app conversion, and repeat (CRM, notifications, WhatsApp). Partner with performance and creative teams; own the growth number, CAC and ROAS.

What success looks like (first 6 12 months)

- D2C revenue and growth at or above plan; category contribution up.

- AOV and repeat-purchase rate rising, with healthy CAC / ROAS.

- Margin held while scaling volume, pricing and promo discipline.

- Calendar-led launches shipped on time, with demand captured at each festival peak.

What you bring

- 4 6 years in category management, growth, or D2C e-commerce - ideally a mix of category ownership and demand generation.

- Performance-marketing fluency - run or closely partnered on Meta / Google plus CRM / retention.

- Pricing and PL comfort; a sharp assortment / NPD instinct (vertical depth + horizontal expansion).

- Data-driven - strong analytics; makes decisions from funnel and category data.

Nice to have

- D2C consumer-brand / FMCG / e-commerce background; app or store growth experience.

- Feel for festive, seasonal, calendar-driven categories.

- Affinity for the spiritual / devotional space and Indian consumer nuance (Hinglish a plus).
