Data Product Manager!

We’re working with a well-regarded national organisation that’s investing heavily in digital and data capabilities. As part of this, they’re hiring a Data Product Manager to help shape how data is structured, governed, and used across the business.

This is a newly defined role, evolving from a traditional data governance position into a product-led, value-focused role, ideal for someone who thrives at the intersection of strategy, stakeholder engagement, and pragmatic delivery.

About the Role

As the Data Product Manager, you’ll act as the bridge between business teams and the data function, helping to prioritise initiatives, define use cases, and guide how data is structured, governed, and used.

You’ll work across CRM systems, business reporting, and operational processes to:

• Own the vision and roadmap for enterprise data products
• Drive engagement and clarity between business stakeholders and the BI/engineering team
• Shape fit-for-purpose data governance practices
• Influence how data is used to support decision-making, member engagement, and AI readiness
• Help align data priorities to broader strategic goals

This is not a hands-on engineering role, but you’ll need enough fluency to collaborate with BI teams and understand where and how data is being applied. Ideally, you’ve worked in similar cross-functional data environments and can confidently make decisions where others aren’t yet ready to.

About You

You’ll likely have a background in data product, analytics, or transformation roles where you’ve worked closely with both business stakeholders and data teams. You’re comfortable making decisions, asking the right questions, and driving clarity when ambiguity is high.

We’re particularly interested in people who:

• Have owned or shaped data product strategy or roadmaps
• Are confident engaging non-technical stakeholders and securing buy-in
• Understand what good looks like in governance, quality, and stewardship
• Can prioritise data needs based on business value and feasibility
• Have exposure to CRM data or transformation projects (e.g. Salesforce, Dynamics)
• May have worked with tools like Power BI, SQL, or Databricks (desirable but not essential)
• Thrive in smaller, agile organisations where solutions must be right-sized

Why This Role?

• Be part of a small, smart, and collaborative team with real influence
• Flexible working (Melbourne preferred), hybrid with relaxed on-site expectations
• Stable, purpose-led organisation with strong values and a national footprint
• 35-hour week + 8+ days of additional leave (including wellness and life leave)
• A chance to shape how data is used at the strategic level – not just maintained
• Location is flexible across the east coast, with a preference for Melbourne. Candidates based in Sydney or Brisbane are encouraged to apply.
