Role Overview

The Manager of Product Planning & Go-to-Market is responsible for supporting the development and execution of product and go-to-market strategies that drive active users and product preference, with a primary focus on the Law School market as the critical feeder into Government, Small Law, and especially Large Law. Given the close alignment between Law School and Large Law, the role may also support select Large Law initiatives where product roadmap and GTM execution directly advance active user growth and long-term revenue outcomes.

This role’s primary responsibility is to translate Law School market strategy, customer insights, and usage trends into clear product planning priorities and effective go-to-market actions. The Manager partners closely with Product Management, Marketing, Sales, and Operations to ensure roadmap priorities, positioning, launch plans, and field execution are aligned to grow usage, strengthen preference, and improve downstream commercial outcomes.

Success in this role requires strong knowledge of the law school market, product planning skills, go-to-market acumen, operational discipline, and the ability to influence and collaborate effectively across a matrixed organization without direct reporting authority.

  • Help define requirements, prioritize initiatives, and support roadmap decisions that strengthen the Law School customer experience and improve product-market fit.

  • Ensure Law School strategy informs product planning decisions where market needs, user behavior, and competitive dynamics should shape roadmap direction.

  • Partner with Marketing and Sales teams to align positioning, messaging, launch timing, segmentation, and adoption strategies to product priorities.

Go-to-Market Strategy & Execution

  • Develop go-to-market plans for new features, enhancements, and strategic initiatives, with a focus on measurable increases in usage and preference.

  • Ensure active user and preference strategies are embedded into broader Go-to-Market plans, creating Law School–specific GTM approaches where needed.

  • Coordinate cross-functional readiness for launches, including stakeholder communication, field enablement, reporting, and adoption tracking.

  • Track success metrics, milestones, launch readiness, and adoption results to monitor progress and support accountability.

  • Identify execution gaps, dependencies, and risks early, and work across teams to keep initiatives on track.

  • Guide the development of marketing programs and campaigns that support product launches, drive adoption, and increase measurable usage and preference.
