About the Role
When it comes to streaming, people think of Netflix. For music, it’s Spotify. When individuals consider Product Management, we aspire for them to think of us.
In this role, you will engage with high-impact client projects, aiding digital-first companies that have achieved product-market fit in overcoming strategic and executional hurdles. Our clients range from industry leaders to those navigating growth, innovation, or transformation.
- Problem Solving for Clients and Product People: You will prioritize tasks, maintain a broad and detailed view, and create meaningful impact. Clarity will be brought to chaos as you orchestrate seamless execution across three concurrent streams, both internally and externally. You are adept at balancing strategy with the hands-on work that drives results and know when to dive deep or maintain a broad perspective.
- Collaboration with Diverse Teams: You adapt your communication style to fit various personalities and integrate swiftly into teams, becoming a valued member within days. Colleagues appreciate working with you, even when you assertively challenge unrealistic expectations. Your approach is always constructive and professional.
- Interim Product Manager: Serving post-product-market-fit digital-first companies, ranging from Series B to publicly listed firms, you will drive complex cross-functional initiatives within B2C or B2B products. Responsibilities may include setting and achieving quarterly OKRs for scale-ups, conducting Continuous Discovery/Jobs To Be Done (JTBD), A/B testing, or unblocking stalled initiatives.
- Crafting and Communicating Product Narratives: You will articulate the purpose behind each feature or capability, addressing questions such as: • What job/problem does this solve? • For whom? • How significant is the market?
