• Support go-to-market execution for new product launches and seasonal promotions
• Bring fresh ideas to how we position and promote products in a competitive market
• Collaborate with marketing communications on trade presence and product messaging
• Build deep product knowledge and become a reliable resource for the sales team on the paper segment
• Create and maintain training materials, product guides, and sales tools
• Participate in customer-facing meetings and presentations, growing your confidence and skill in that environment over time
• Work closely with field sales to understand customer needs and feed those insights back into product strategy
• Own ongoing competitive research — tracking pricing, product positioning, and market movement across key competitors
• Analyze sales trends and category data to surface insights that inform product decisions
• Conduct voice-of-customer research and synthesize findings for the broader team
• Develop your market expertise in paper and print into a genuine competitive advantage for the business

Requirements:

• 3–5 years of professional experience in product management, marketing, sales, or a closely related field
• Demonstrated ability to manage projects, analyze data, and communicate findings clearly
