Ambitious businesses of every size use our platform to discover, connect, and engage with qualified decision-makers faster and close more deals. Headquartered in London with global offices, Cognism’s contact data and contextual signals are trusted by thousands of revenue teams to eliminate the guesswork from prospecting.\nThe Opportunity \nCognism has built one of the most trusted B2B datasets in Europe. As we turn that data into market-leading products, we need a product manager who can own data products end to end - from understanding what customers are trying to achieve, to shaping what we build, to making sure it lands and creates value. \nThis is a strategic role, where your leverage comes from the quality of your product decisions and your ability to align others around them. You will own a set of data products, be accountable for their quality, and be the person who turns a customer problem into a clear, buildable product that people genuinely want to use. The starting point is always the customer: what problem they have, what they have tried, and what would change their workflow. \nWhat This Role Owns \nThe strategy for your product area - where it's headed, what to bet on, and how it ladders up to the wider product vision. \nThe data products in your area - what they are, who they serve, and how they earn their place in a customer's workflow. \nThe customer use cases behind those products - which segments benefit, in which workflows, and to what outcome. \nThe quality of the data assets you own - accuracy, coverage, freshness, and delivery reliability - and the judgement of what is good enough to put in front of customers. \nThe delivery roadmap for your products - what you build, in what order, and what you deliberately leave out. \nAdoption and value - proving that what you ship solves the problem it was meant to, not just that it shipped. \nWhat This Role Will Do \nData product ownership and delivery\nOwn the product development cycle for your data products, from discovery and validation through to launch, adoption, and iteration. \nDefine requirements, set priorities, and make clear scope calls - what a product should and should not do, and why. \nWork closely with data engineering and data science to shape data assets that can be delivered at the highest quality - so customers can build on data they trust - across CRMs, APIs, and agentic systems. \nGround every product decision in a customer use case and a commercial outcome, not just technical capability. \nDefine the success metrics and KPIs for your products up front, then measure outcomes continuously - using the data to drive decisions and iterate. \nShape how your products are packaged and priced - working with commercial teams so the way data is offered matches how customers buy and where they see value. \nCustomer understanding\nTurn customer needs into clear data requirements that engineering and data teams can build against. \nValidate that what you build creates value - decide up front how you will know a product is working, and test it with real customers. \nPartner with Sales and Customer Success so customers realise the value of the data, and feed what you learn back into the product. \nData quality and governance\nOwn the quality of the data assets in your area and set the standard customers can rely on. \nDecide how to surface confidence, freshness, and match quality to customers where it affects trust and adoption. \nBuild GDPR compliance and data governance into the product from the start. \nPut evaluation frameworks in place - specific to data products - to measure data quality objectively and improve it continuously, so you can prove the data meets the standard customers rely on. \nWork with data sourcing teams to expand and strengthen the datasets behind your products - deciding what to source, build, or partner for. \nStakeholder Management\nAct as the primary point of contact for your product area across Engineering, Data Science, Sales, Customer Success, Commercial, and Compliance - translating between technical and commercial language as needed. \nManage dependencies with product peers who own adjacent surfaces; where priorities conflict, resolve disagreements directly and drive to a decision without escalation unless necessary. \nKeep senior stakeholders (e.g. leadership, commercial leads) informed of roadmap trade-offs and progress, proactively surfacing risks before they become blockers. \nBuild trust with customer-facing teams (Sales, CS) so they can represent your product accurately and feed real customer signal back into your roadmap. \nWhere a decision affects multiple teams, take ownership of driving alignment - running the discussion, not just attending it. \nMarket awareness\nKeep a current view of the B2B data market - how it is evolving, who the key players are, and what customers are choosing and why. \nUse that view to sharpen your products and spot where Cognism's data can create differentiated value. \nWhat We Are Looking For \nA specialist data product person - not a generalist - who has owned a data product end to end: defined what it needed to be, built it, evaluated it, brought it to market, and can speak to the customer impact it created. You understand how data and models work, lead with curiosity about the customer, and land with real outcomes. \nMust-Haves \n5+ years in product roles, with direct experience owning data products or data-driven features in a B2B SaaS or technology business. \nProven ability to define and own data use cases - mapping customer segments, workflows, and outcomes into a clear product direction. \nExperience setting product strategy for an area you own - deciding where to focus, what to bet on, and what to say no to. \nDirect experience treating data as a product: you have defined a data offering, built it, brought it to market, and can speak to the impact. \nCommercially minded - you understand how customers buy and what drives value for them, and your instinct is to build the right product. \nA track record of customer discovery - interviews, research, or feedback loops that directly shaped a product direction. \nTechnically fluent enough to work credibly alongside engineering and data teams. \nHands-on experience building ML-driven data features - you don't need to be a data scientist, but you understand how models, enrichment, and signals work, can evaluate their quality, and can shape products around them. \nA strong cross-functional collaborator who can bring product, engineering, and commercial teams into alignment. \nA clear communicator who can make a complex data proposition simple for a customer. \nAble to work with compliance and security experts to build compliance and security in by design. \nNice-to-Haves \nExperience in B2B sales intelligence, intent data, contact data, or a related data category. \nExperience in a scale-up or high-growth environment where you have built strategy and execution at the same time. \nExperience delivering data through APIs, MCPs, or integrations - building for programmatic and agentic consumption, not just a UI. \nExperience monetising or packaging data products - shaping pricing and usage models for how data is bought. \nFamiliarity with the go-to-market tech ecosystem - the CRM and sales and marketing tools our data plugs into. \n\nWHY COGNISM\nAt Cognism, we’re not just building a company - we’re building an inclusive community of brilliant, diverse people who support, challenge, and inspire each other every day. If you’re looking for a place where your work truly makes an impact, you’re in the right spot!\nOur values aren’t just words on a page-they guide how we work, how we treat each other, and how we grow together. They shape our culture, drive our success, and ensure that everyone feels valued, heard, and empowered to do their best work.\nHere’s what we stand for:\nWe Own the Outcome Together.\n We Deeply Understand our Customers. \n We Celebrate Impact Wherever It Comes From.\nAt Cognism, we are committed to fostering an inclusive, diverse, and supportive workplace. We welcome applications from individuals typically underrepresented in tech, so if this role excites you but you’re unsure if you meet every requirement, we encourage you to apply!","description_format":"text","description_chars":8314,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["B2B Company & Contact Data"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-01T01:01:08Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"GB","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"Licensed UK visa sponsor (Skilled Worker)","filings_12m":null,"filings_prev_12m":null,"green_card_filings_12m":null,"median_offered_wage_usd":null,"route":"Skilled Worker","cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-15T06:21:15+00:00","sources":["UK Home Office: register of licensed sponsors (workers)"],"filings_for_role_12m":0}],"liveness":{"score":67,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.74,"p_room":0.9,"age_days":14,"expected_fill_days":33,"reasons":["conf:0","win:mid"],"computed_at":"2026-10-15T05:46:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/cognism-senior-product-manager-data","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/cognism-senior-product-manager-data.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-15T22:36:14Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":34259,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-16T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":63392},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=63392"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fcognism-senior-product-manager-data"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fcognism-senior-product-manager-data"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fcognism-senior-product-manager-data"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/cognism-senior-product-manager-data\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fcognism-senior-product-manager-data"}]}
