The role

Do you want to lead the transformation of a key mobility business?

We are looking for a Category Manager to take on the end-to-end (E2E) management of the Express Entry and Rotation categories. Your goal will be to evolve the model toward a strategy centered on the customer, value, and sustainable profitability. You will design and activate the value proposition for both lines, coordinating Marketing, Operations, Product, Tech, Data, CX, Finance, and Sales to turn opportunities into measurable results.

What you'll do

Lead the end-to-end management of the Express Entry and Rotation categories, with full ownership of their value proposition, financial performance, customer experience, and commercial evolution.

The role aims to transform the management of these categories from a price-, occupancy-, and average revenue-driven logic to a model based on customer, value, and sustainable margin. You will be responsible for designing, activating, and evolving the strategy for both categories, coordinating Marketing, Operations, Product, Tech, Data, CX, Finance, and Sales to turn opportunities into measurable business results.

The Category Manager will be the 360º business owner for Express Entry and Rotation. Your responsibility will be to understand what the customer needs, how they behave, what value they perceive, and how to turn that information into a profitable, scalable, and differentiated commercial proposition.

You will move from reacting to data to proactively proposing new growth levers: pricing, promotions, assortment, campaigns, product improvements, segmentation, digital activation, and operational optimization.

Main responsibilities

  1. Category strategy and end-to-end ownership

Define the growth strategy for Express Entry and Rotation.

Build the commercial roadmap for each category.

Manage the category with a P&L mindset: revenue, margin, profitability, conversion, recurrence, and satisfaction.

Identify profitable growth opportunities based on data, customer insights, and market signals.

Define business priorities and translate them into concrete actions with impact.

  1. Value proposition and customer focus

Design and evolve the value proposition for each category by customer segment.

Bring the customer voice, usage behavior, CX feedback, and digital analytics into decision-making.

Detect friction points in the Express Entry and Rotation experience and coordinate improvement plans.

Ensure every initiative addresses a real customer need, not just a transactional opportunity.

  1. Pricing, promotions, and revenue management

Define pricing, promotion, and commercial activation strategies.

Analyze elasticity, conversion, average ticket, frequency, margin, and price sensitivity.

Design A/B tests and commercial pilots to validate growth hypotheses.

Optimize the balance between occupancy, rotation, average revenue, margin, and customer experience and value.

Evaluate the financial impact of campaigns, discounts, new rates, or product changes.

  1. Commercial management and go-to-market

Lead the commercial plan for Express Entry and Rotation.

Coordinate campaigns with Marketing for acquisition, activation, recurrence, and loyalty.

Work with Product and Tech on developments that improve conversion, usage, and satisfaction.

Collaborate with Operations to ensure proper implementation at parking facilities.

Prepare business cases, presentations, and recommendations for decision committees.

  1. Performance analysis and continuous improvement

Monitor category performance on a weekly basis.

Create and use category dashboards with business, customer, and profitability KPIs.

Identify deviations, opportunities, and corrective actions.

Prepare weekly, monthly, and quarterly analyses for management.

Turn learnings from pilots and campaigns into scalable best practices.

  1. Cross-functional leadership

Act as the internal point of reference for Express Entry and Rotation.

Mobilize teams without direct hierarchical authority.

Align stakeholders around common category objectives.

Promote a network-based culture: fewer silos, more customer focus, more impact.

Participate in category forums, innovation initiatives, and commercial reviews.

  • The final stages are set by the client company: final handling of profiles and the decision on whom to contact rest solely with the company.
