Group Product Manager – Lighting & Luminaires

Christchurch | Group Leadership Role | Travel as Required

Reporting To : Group Sales Manager

Company : Redpaths Group

Lead our Lighting Future

Redpaths Group isn’t just an electrical and lighting business — we’re a forward-thinking, proudly New Zealand‑owned company redefining what it means to deliver value at every connection.

We’re seeking an exceptional Group Product Manager – Lighting & Luminaires to join our senior leadership team and lead the strategic direction, innovation, and commercial success of our lighting division.

This is an opportunity to shape one of the country’s most progressive lighting portfolios, where design, technology, and business acumen meet to create lasting impact.

The Role

As Group Lighting Product Manager, you’ll own and drive the full lighting category from specification and design through to product lifecycle, supplier partnerships, and commercial performance.

You’ll bring deep technical lighting knowledge, a sharp commercial mind, and a collaborative leadership style that inspires teams and delivers tangible results.

This is a hands‑on, high‑influence role ideal for someone who thrives in a dynamic environment, takes full ownership, and leads with purpose, accountability, and passion.

What You’ll Do

  • Strategic Leadership

Be a core member of the senior leadership team, helping shape the Group’s long‑term strategy.

  • Develop and execute a clear lighting roadmap that aligns innovation, margin, and growth objectives.
  • Foster a culture of ownership, collaboration, and continuous improvement across teams and channels.
  • Product Management & Development
  • Manage the full product lifecycle — concept, design, launch, and review.

  • Curate and optimise the lighting range, ensuring it delivers on performance, compliance, and profitability.
  • Identify and introduce emerging technologies and trends that keep Redpaths ahead of the market.
  • Work closely with global suppliers and factories to ensure quality, value, and differentiation.
  • Specification, Projects & Tenders
  • Lead lighting specification and project engagement nationally.

  • Support internal and external stakeholders with technical lighting design, application guidance, and documentation.
  • Build strong relationships with architects, consultants, contractors, and distributors to grow specification‑driven sales.
  • Oversee project pricing and tender submissions to achieve commercial targets.
  • Leadership & Collaboration
  • Mentor internal teams and share technical expertise across the organisation.

  • Partner with sales, marketing, and operations to deliver cohesive strategies and customer experiences.
  • Encourage innovation and empower others to contribute ideas and improvements.
  • Commercial & Operational Excellence
  • Monitor category sales, margin, and stock performance with proactive actions to optimise outcomes.

  • Negotiate supplier agreements and maintain strategic partnerships.
  • Ensure compliance with all lighting standards, testing, and regulatory requirements.
  • Manage budgets, forecasts, and reporting for the lighting division.
  • What You Bring

  • Proven lighting industry experience, ideally in product management, specification, or design.
  • Strong grasp of lighting design principles, compliance, and specification workflows.
  • Proficiency with lighting design tools (DIALux, Relux, or similar).
  • Commercial acumen with the ability to interpret data and drive profitability.
  • Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills.
  • A collaborative, accountable, and hands‑on leadership approach.
  • Creative problem‑solving and adaptability in a fast‑evolving market.
  • A proactive, self‑driven mindset with pride in delivering excellence.
  • Why Redpaths?

    At Redpaths Group, we don’t follow the norm — we challenge it.

    We’re building a business where ownership, integrity, and innovation are the foundation of every connection.

    We invest in our people, back bold ideas, and celebrate collective success.
