What You'll Do:

  • Lead and grow the Mattress & Bed categories - our 2 biggest categories for Emma's #1 market globally, France - by defining the long-term category strategy, portfolio, pricing, and positioning.
  • Define and execute the product portfolio strategy, coordinating product launches, phase-ins, phase-outs, and lifecycle optimization.

  • You have 5+ years of experience in Category Management, Pricing, RGM, Key Account Management, Business Strategy, or Consulting, ideally in e-commerce, retail, or consumer goods.
  • You understand pricing, margin drivers, channel dynamics, and portfolio management deeply enough to make data-driven decisions that move the business forward.
  • You can navigate and align diverse stakeholders across global, regional, and local teams. You lead through influence and structured communication.
  • As part of a fast-scaling environment, you know how to operate in changing settings, solve problems creatively, and adapt quickly.
  • Fluent in English, French is desirable but not mandatory.

What We Offer:

  • The opportunity to create real impact, take ownership and accountability, and drive meaningful change.
  • Continuous learning and development through hands-on experience, mentoring, formal training, and access to tools such as our Learning Hub and Nilo.
  • A collaborative community of smart, driven people where you learn, contribute, and connect, every day and through team events.
  • A global environment, working daily with diverse perspectives across 4 offices and 70+ nationalities.
  • Private Health Insurance and 24 vacation days per year, with 1 extra day per year worked (until a limit of 29 days per year).
  • A flexible hybrid setup with up to 22 remote days per quarter.
  • A modern, pet-friendly office in Parque das Nações, Lisbon.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
