Responsibilities
• You’ll be joining the Retail Categories team. Retail only wins category by category; a single, generic shopping experience cannot do justice to the unique ways people buy apparel, auto parts, or home improvement goods. This role owns the end-to-end category shopping experience for a defined portfolio, transforming broad customer promises into shipped surfaces and distinct emotional hooks that drive habitual buying behavior. • Define Category Strategy: Formulate the category experience strategy and decide which categories and bets to invest in first, sequencing for maximum growth and impact. • Define Category Strategy: • Execute Signature Product Bets: Translate each category's promise into concrete, testable product bets—such as personal-shopper features using doorstep returns for Apparel or fitment-accurate part lookup for Auto Parts—and ship them end to end. • Execute Signature Product Bets: • Optimise Category Surfaces: Own the category merchandising and storefront surfaces that differentiate one vertical from another while maintaining a cohesive and intuitive Retail experience. • Optimise Category Surfaces: • Leverage Platform Capabilities: Partner with shared platform infrastructure (such as doorstep returns or fulfillment) to build bespoke category experiences without rebuilding core infrastructure. • Leverage Platform Capabilities: • Drive Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner deeply with BD, Sales, Catalog, and Search teams to ensure category surfaces are powered by accurate data and align cleanly with merchant relationships. • Drive Cross-Functional Collaboration: • Measure Impact: Use data, customer insight, and experimentation to prioritise initiatives, define success metrics, and directly move the needle on conversion and repeat purchases. • Measure Impact:
