ATS Resume Optimization for Trade & Shopper Marketing Managers

Trade and Shopper Marketing Managers own the retailer-facing activation layer of consumer goods โ€” in-store activation, retailer co-op programs, trade-spend management, and planogram-linked promotional planning โ€” a discipline distinct from the brand-P&L focus of a Brand Manager and uncovered by any dedicated resume-writing competitor found in this pass. Job-board volume is high: 5,277 "Shopper Marketing Manager CPG" postings on Indeed, with individual manager roles at $115,000-$130,000 and director tiers running $155,000-$200,000. We rewrite your resume and LinkedIn profile so the ATS reads your trade work the way a CPG recruiter would.
