Our dream is to become the fastest growing, most loved, window covering company in the world. What’s yours? This is a unique opportunity to start your career in product management at the intersection of technology, design, and everyday living - working on products that are used by millions of people worldwide. At Hunter Douglas, our ambition is clear: to become the fastest growing, most loved, and most efficient window coverings company in the world. Motorisation plays a key role in achieving this ambition, as it continues to transform how customers experience our products. In this role, you will work closely with the Portfolio Manager and gain broad exposure across three core areas: product management and continuous improvement, leading development projects, and driving product launches and commercial readiness. You will play an active role in connecting these areas - ensuring that topics are followed through, projects move forward, and products are successfully introduced to the market. This role requires a proactive, hands-on mindset. In a fast-growing and evolving environment, you will take ownership, create structure, and help ensure that priorities are translated into action. This role is designed as an entry point into product management. You will start with a strong focus on driving progress, building product knowledge, and bringing structure to a fast-moving environment. As you demonstrate ownership and impact, you will grow into a Product Manager role with responsibility for a motorisation concept - covering motors, controls, apps, and accessories - targeting a specific market segment. Why This Role is Exciting From a technical perspective, motorised window coverings are technically complex and diverse products. They bring together motors, electronics, controls, and smart home integrations into complete systems. At the same time, these products are directly visible in people’s homes and used every day. You will work on solutions that have a real impact on how people experience light, comfort, and privacy in their living environment. The role is highly international: you will collaborate across EMEA and the global motorisation organization, working within a matrix structure and contributing to both regional and global priorities.

In your first phase, you will focus on driving execution, building product understanding, and learning how to operate effectively within a complex, international organization. As you demonstrate ownership, judgment, and the ability to independently drive topics and projects, you will grow into a Product Manager role - taking full responsibility for a motorisation concept, including its roadmap, development, and performance. Team Context You will be part of both the EMEA product team and the global motorisation team. The environment is international, hands-on, and evolving. The team has a strong sense of ownership and willingness to deliver, and is transitioning towards more structure, alignment, and predictable execution.
