What we expect

• You have 4-7 years of product management experience, with a significant focus on B2B SaaS product management, platform products, and growth, in more than one organisation.

• You are an expert in Warranty and Field Service Management with a leading understanding of the domain.

• An ability to set a high bar not only for yourself, but your team too. Empowering them to achieve great results, through inspiring development & mentorship. ‘Rock Stars’ need not apply.

• Collaborative and empathic. You understand and promote that highly functioning successful modern working environments are predicated on collaborative servant leadership models, not command and control. You actively seek the needs of the team over your own.

• Innovative pragmatism. Successfully balancing the need to constantly push towards end delivery, against your desire for real consumer innovation.

• Determined. Prepared to roll up your sleeves and tackle something hands-on when required. When others flag, you dig-in, persevere and inspire people with your positivity. You’re able to go the distance, when others simply cannot.

• Light touch data. You just get the data you need with no fuss and use it to inform insightful stories. You know how to leverage good use of data, to make decisions, without getting stuck in analysis paralysis - especially when data isn’t complete.

• User-centricity, challenging the status quo and making sure we put customers at the heart of everything we do. Relentless in your pursuit of customer ease in the face of policies, procedures, governance or accepting ‘it’s just the way it’s been done before.’

• A never-ending desire to grow and learn.
