About the Role
The Senior Global Category Manager is a senior strategic role within Emma's Global Category Product Management team. You are the long-term owner of one of Emma's core product categories — Mattresses or Accessories/Beds/Linen — and are responsible for defining where the category should play and how it should win at a global level.
This is a high-impact, cross-functional role that connects consumer insight, market intelligence, and business priorities into a coherent portfolio architecture, innovation pipeline, and multi-year product roadmap. You work hand-in-hand with R&D, Marketing, Finance, and regional teams to ensure Emma builds the right products, at the right price, for the right consumers — consistently and globally.

About the Role The Global Performance & Value Manager is responsible for ensuring that Emma captures the full commercial value of its product portfolio — by connecting product performance, pricing architecture, and competitive intelligence into actionable insight. This is a newly created role designed to address one of the most critical gaps identified in the category diagnostic: the absence of a structured pricing framework, a clear performance intelligence function, and a structured competitive monitoring capability. Today, pricing decisions lack governance, performance tracking is high-level, and competitive intelligence is fragmented. This role exists to fix that. You will build the analytical backbone of Category Management — providing the data, frameworks, and strategic insight that make better portfolio decisions possible, and ensuring that pricing logic holds across markets, channels, and the full product lifecycle.
