Category management is about having a deep understanding of an area or field and being strategic about how goods or services are acquired and managed for an organisation. For example; a Category Manager for Energy would be responsible for the procurement of energy across a large organisation that heavily relies on energy for it operations. That person would have a deep understanding of energy markets, contractual options and how energy is used throughout the organisation's facilities.  

Often these people call on outside support such as advisers to help execute a specific activity. Hence we developed the Smart Business Hub sub-category for “Category Management” to help you find that niche person to help with Category management.
