We are looking for a creative and passionate Senior Product Manager to join the Marketplace Core, Spotify’s division dedicated to helping artists thrive! Our mission is to create tools that help artists and their teams build an audience, monetize their fans, and live off their work. At the heart of making this happen is a series of platforms that enable our customer-facing teams to move fast and with a purpose to enable our mission, which we call Core.

You will lead a new cross-functional, small and independent team that will explore an exciting vision for our team! The discovery will help us define our first internal customer in Marketplace, their use cases, and a plan to build a proof of concept. We're prioritizing internal Product talent to lead this initiative since it requires a good understanding of the music industry complexity. In addition, you will have a direct impact on the future of creativity through exploring foundational platforms that the supply-side of Spotify relies on. 

What you'll do

• Understand the needs of stakeholders that demonstrated interest in partnering with Core in the pursuit of a centralized B2B account management platform
• Lead discovery using a structured framework to help drive strategic decisions and explore different solutions to problems and hypotheses
• Drive the product vision, strategy, and proof of concept in collaboration with a cross-functional team
• Define, communicate, and debate strategy with cross-functional partners across the Marketplace

Who you are

• A love for leading discovery and partnering with designers, user researchers, data scientists and technical architects; as well as internal partners, to understand new problem spaces
• A clear understanding of what it means to build platform products as opposed to consumer products, and how to build products that enable others to move with speed to solve their own needs
• Understand the importance of the developer experience to improve impact, distribution, and success for those building on top of your product
• Experienced with cross-functional leadership and are a consummate collaborator across multiple domains
• Clearly define success metrics, and articulate how your projects are contributing to them
• A deep understanding and articulation of industry movements, threats, and opportunities
• Strong bias for execution, shipping product, and delivering customer value

Where you’ll be

• We are a distributed workforce enabling our band members to find a work mode best for them!
• Where in the world? For this role, it can be within the Americas region in which we have a work location
• Prefer an office to work from home instead? Not a problem! We have plenty of options for your working preferences. Find more information about our Work From Anywhere options here.
• Working hours? We operate within the Eastern Standard time zone for collaboration.
