What they're building

Production capacity build-out in Brno-Líšeň (functional food manufacturing) strong signal

Today: Site title: Sportnahrung und funktionelle Lebensmittel; categories include Protein, Sporternährung, Supplements

Roles: Seřizovač strojů ve výrobě funkční výživy · Pracovník ve výrobě funkční výživy - LÍŠEŇ · Operative Commodity Buyer

Requirements mention: dotykové displeje · obsluha a nastavování strojů · práce na směny · fyzická práce · operativním nákupem

Inference: the machine-setter posting says the Brno-Líšeň plant 'se rozšiřuje a technologií stále přibývá'. The buyer posting cites rising production volumes. Together these point to higher in-house output that needs more machine and packaging-supply staff.

Supply chain planning systems, sourcing and logistics strong signal

Today: Site lists online categories: Lebensmittel, Protein, Sporternährung, Supplements, Bekleidung, Kosmetik, Reinigung & Haushalt

Roles: Product Owner - Supply Chain · Head of Operations · Operative Commodity Buyer

Requirements mention: forecasting methods · demand planning · MRP · safety stock · end-to-end supply chain · supplier negotiations

Inference: the Product Owner - Supply Chain posting describes planning systems that forecast demand, allocate stock across D2C, B2B and retail stores, and place most orders automatically. This points to more automated ordering. Head of Operations is hired to scale the supply chain across DTC, retail, B2B and international markets.

Home and self-care assortment expansion moderate signal

Today: Site lists categories Reinigung & Haushalt and Kosmetik

Roles: Product Manager Self-Care & Cleaning (2) · Product Manager - Home assortment

Requirements mention: supplier sourcing · launch execution · basic knowledge of cosmetics regulation · EU 1223/2009 · sell-through

Inference: two NPD product manager postings in Brno point to a larger home and self-care range. This rests on the posting text about building out the Home assortment across kitchen, household and sport.

Own e-commerce stack rebuild and internal tooling moderate signal

Today: Online shop at vilgain.ch; site description: Täglich neue Artikel und gesunde Rezepte

Roles: Principal Engineer · PHP Backend Developer

Requirements mention: e-commerce platform · monolith · scalable system design · integrations · ERP · e-shop

Inference: the Principal Engineer posting says key parts of the in-house stack are being rebuilt and the monolith split. The PHP Backend Developer posting covers internal tools and ERP, e-shop and logistics integrations. Engineering work here is in-house platform and tooling work.

All-market performance marketing, UK build-out and DACH organic social moderate signal

Today: Site is vilgain.ch in German with prices in CHF, so Vilgain already sells in Switzerland

Roles: E-commerce & Performance Manager · Country Manager UK · DACH Social Media Specialist (Prague location)

Requirements mention: performance marketing · CRO · A/B testing · Shopify · Native-level German · Instagram · TikTok · YouTube

Inference: a UK country manager hired for 'the next chapter of Vilgain in the UK' and a DACH social channel to be built 'from the ground up' point to a push to grow the UK and German-speaking markets.

Physical retail stores in Czechia and Slovakia moderate signal

Today: Site is an online shop; the postings describe retail stores alongside D2C and B2B

Roles: Sales Assistant Bratislava · Sales Assistant Praha

Requirements mention: prodejního ducha · umíš naslouchat · navázat vztah se zákazníkem · práce na směny

Inference: the Bratislava posting is for a new store, and the Praha posting says the company is preparing new stores. This suggests more physical stores in Czechia and Slovakia.

Where the headcount is going

Department	Open
NPD	4
RETAIL	2
LOG	2
MNF	2
Other	1
MARKETING	1
Supply Chain	1

Of 21 open roles, operations (Supply Chain 2, LOG 2, MNF 2: 6 combined), DEV (5, two of them IT support) and NPD (4) make up most openings, with 9 roles in Praha, 8 in Brno and none remote.

Who they need

Seniority: Mostly mid-level (9) and junior (6), with 2 manager, 1 senior, 1 director, 1 principal and 1 unspecified.

Skills named most: Excel, Google Sheets, ERP, supplier negotiations, supplier sourcing, performance marketing, e-commerce, PHP, GraphQL, Android, Windows, network infrastructure

Locations: Praha 9 roles, Brno 8, Kozomín 2, Bratislava 1 and London, Greater London, United Kingdom 1; no remote roles are listed.

You'd fit if you are technically handy, comfortable with physical, shift-based work on touch-screen machines, and can work in Czech (Seřizovač strojů ve výrobě funkční výživy, Brno-Líšeň).
You'd fit if you have PHP and GraphQL experience and can work in Brno (PHP Backend Developer) or Praha (Principal Engineer, which also asks for e-commerce platform experience).
You'd fit if you have performance marketing experience and Advanced English (E-commerce & Performance Manager, Praha), or DTC e-commerce and Shopify experience (Country Manager UK, London).

How to use this

If you're applying: Check location and language in each posting before applying; no roles are remote. The Brno production roles list physical work, and the machine-setter role also lists shift work. The DACH social role asks for native-level German, and the E-commerce & Performance Manager role asks for Advanced English.

If you're selling or recruiting: Recent openings (since 1 October) are mostly supply chain, logistics, NPD, regulatory and retail: Operative Commodity Buyer, Product Manager Self-Care & Cleaning (2), Outbound transport specialist, Regulatory & Claims Specialist and Sales Assistant Bratislava. Supply chain and logistics is the clearest area for planning, warehouse and carrier services, with Head of Operations and Product Owner - Supply Chain as the senior roles. DEV's 5 roles include two IT support roles, so count engineering demand as 3.
