ABOUT SLATE

 SLATE, is a new US company that is exploring development in the electric vehicle space.

Slate is looking for an upbeat, organized, and innovative Product Manager to join our team to support the team on bringing our accessories portfolio to life. Slate is exploring opportunities in the electric mobility space and is building complimentary accessories, apparel, and merchandise capability.  

Who we are looking for: 

This role can support either exterior or interior hard-goods products. Reporting directly to the Head of Accessories Product Management, you are customer-led in everything that you do. Your primary responsibility is to translate customer needs into useful products that foster deep brand connections through expression. As a product manager, you will drive the end-to-end product lifecycle development, with extensive creative partnership with our Brand team.  

 

What you get to do:

  • You obsess over enabling world-class personalization for our customers by bringing products to market.  
  • You will use strategic and quantitative analysis to support recommendations for new products, assign features and specs, facilitate trade-off decision making, and lead business execution.
  • Manage assigned product items for performance, customer satisfaction, and company impact.  
  • Conduct market studies and keep product offerings fresh with our customer base.  
  • Execute and improve the product development process and then manage the end-to-end cycle of approved products on the line plan. This includes product sunset management.  
  • Collaborate and act as project manager across Design, Engineering, Supply-Chain, Finance, Legal, Brand and Commercial teams to ensure Slate accessories are inspiring, on-time, and on budget.
  • Partner with Brand and Legal teams to secure product licensing and reseller agreements.  
  • Create presentations and documentations and present to cross-functional leadership. This includes product updates and recommendations. We share the spotlight!
  • Travel to suppliers and Slate office sites (10-25% average) to support team and project work.  
  • Have a lot of fun working on a dynamic and engaging team with a seat at the table. 

 

What you bring to the Team: 

  • Bachelor’s degree in business, supply chain, engineering, or equivalent. MS/MBA a Plus. Exceptional experience may be considered in lieu of a formal degree.  
  • 4+ years of experience in hardware product and programs: preferably automotive/power sports accessories, lifestyle accessories, engineering, or product development.
  • Proven track-record of taking products from concept-to-creation, with strong project management, analytical, and communication skills. You will project manage your own products.
  • Comfortable in start-up environments. You can roll up your sleeves to do the work and build or recommend the tools needed to be successful as the company grows.
  • A proactive “one company” teammate with a continuous improvement approach, that is equally comfortable with engineering details and business planning.
  • Capability to work cross-functionally with partners, suppliers, and vendors, building strong relationships that produce positive results.
  • An ability to be an effective brand representative and ambassador to the Slate community, both presenting the Slate vision and collecting input that leads to future accessories' development.
