  • Proactive Guidance: Anticipate client and user needs, recommending future product directions that align with evolving market trends. 
  • Collaborative Teamwork: Work closely with cross-functional teams to ensure they understand the features and user stories, supporting the design and implementation of effective solutions. 
  • Performance Optimization: Utilize performance metrics and field data analysis to refine and improve product impact, focusing on delivering value to all users. 
  • Product Strategy & Roadmap: Create, deliver, and maintain the product strategy roadmap, prioritizing key features and enhancements. 
  • Agile Leadership: Lead and facilitate Scrum ceremonies, ensuring the team operates effectively and efficiently. 
  • Team Leadership: Guide and mentor members of the Product Team, fostering an inclusive and supportive environment where everyone can thrive. 
  • Stakeholder Communication: Provide regular updates to stakeholders, maintaining transparency and fostering open communication throughout the product lifecycle. 
  • Resource Management: Ensure that resources are allocated effectively, working closely with Engineering and Account Managers to support the product’s success. 
  • Financial Oversight: Track product progress against the initial roadmap, managing financial aspects such as resource allocation, expenditure, and cash flow. 
  • Risk Management: Identify and mitigate risks, documenting key assumptions, dependencies, and issues to ensure smooth product delivery. 
  • Team Collaboration: Work closely with other members of the Product Team to share knowledge, support each other, and deliver successful outcomes for our clients.

  • Experience: At least 3 years of experience in product management, with a strong understanding of mobile development project lifecycles. 
  • Leadership Skills: A natural leader and problem solver, capable of making smart, practical decisions under pressure.
  • Commercial Acumen: Experience building product business cases and commercial justifications, with a proven track record of launching new products in mature markets. 
  • Client Collaboration: Experience working closely with clients to develop roadmaps, define project scope, and negotiate costs, with a focus on setting and managing expectations. 
  • Communication: Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to engage effectively in both one-on-one and group settings. 
  • Team Building: Strong people management skills, with the ability to motivate and manage teams, handle conflict, and provide constructive feedback in a positive manner.
