Overview
Head of Private Label Jobs in Prague Metropolitan Area at Bonami
Title: Head of Private Label
Company: Bonami
Location: Prague Metropolitan Area
Private label is a strategic priority for Bonami, and we are looking for someone to build and scale it in a structured, commercially driven way. You will take full ownership of the private label business – from defining the product strategy to delivering measurable results. This is not a coordination role, but a leadership position responsible for shaping a complex product and business area with clear processes, strong execution, and accountability for outcomes. You will report directly to the CCO and act as a partner to senior management. Over time, you will build and lead your own team to scale private label across categories.
Your responsibilities
Strategy & Ownership
- Own the private label business across categories.
- Define the product and sourcing strategy – what to build, where to focus, and why.
- Identify growth opportunities based on data, trends, and commercial potential.
Execution & Delivery
- Lead the full process from product concept to market launch.
- Set up and continuously improve processes to ensure scalability and efficiency.
- Ensure products are delivered on time, within target cost, and at expected quality.
- Identify risks early and resolve issues proactively.
Cross-functional Leadership
- Align Category Management, Supply Chain, Inventory, Finance, and Marketing around shared goals.
Supplier & Commercial Management
- Build and manage relationships with suppliers and manufacturers.
- Negotiate commercial terms with a focus on margin, cash flow, and long-term sustainability.
Team Management
- Gradually build and lead a team to support the growth of private label.
What success looks like?
- Private label is growing – in both revenue and margin.
- Products sell and make commercial sense.
- The supplier model is stable and predictable.
- Products launch on time and without chaos.
- Internal teams are aligned and work effectively together.
- You have full control over key metrics – margin, pricing, stock, and cash flow.
- You build a team that can support growth without increasing complexity.
You are perfect for this role if you
- Have experience in private label, sourcing, or category management.
- Have a strong understanding of how product, cost, and margin connect – and the ability to make decisions accordingly.
- Can manage complex processes and align multiple stakeholders.
- Have confidence in decision-making and full ownership of outcomes.
- Have a hands-on approach with attention to detail when needed.
- Have strong communication and negotiation skills in English (internal and external).
- Have a strong product intuition supported by data and commercial thinking.
- Have the potential to build and lead a small, high-performing team.
- Experience in furniture or home & living is a strong advantage – it will help you navigate products, suppliers, and category specifics more quickly.
This role may not be a good fit if
- You are looking for a purely operational or execution-focused role.
- You want to focus only on design or only on sourcing.
- You don’t have experience managing a complex product or category.
- You are not comfortable working with numbers and commercial decisions.
What we offer
- Real ownership of a strategic part of the business.
- Direct impact on results and direction of private label.
- The opportunity to set things up properly and for the long term.
- The possibility to gradually build your own team.
- You will rely on experienced teams across the company to help scale private label without building everything from scratch.
- A direct and pragmatic environment without unnecessary bureaucracy.
