Overview

We’re seeking a motivated Product Manager to join our small, cross-functional team. Reporting to the Director of Product Strategy, you’ll own and optimise our suite of Courses products — from a B2C ecommerce marketplace to a B2B advertising platform and internal tools.

• Use data and KPIs to drive decisions and measure success.
• Own the product roadmap and backlog, ensuring timely delivery of priorities.
• Contribute to product and business strategy by generating ideas and spotting opportunities.

• Experience working in a small, cross functional team where everyone is ready to pitch beyond their official responsibilities, if it’s what’s best for the team and for the business
• Comfortable with high levels of ambiguity and frequent priority shifts, with the ability to react quickly and respond positively to change
• Strong problem solving skills, with the ability to think critically and creatively to overcome obstacles and get things done
• First class interpersonal skills - in person, remotely and in written format
• Innovative & full of ideas for both creating and taking advantage of new opportunities
• Commercial awareness, understanding both how to optimise a complex product and how to react to a fast changing competitor landscape
• Strong customer empathy with the ability to fully understand the needs of the user
• Highly analytical, with the ability to use data to understand key business drivers and how they underpin strategic and tactical decision making
• Comfortable creating and implementing new processes, as well as challenging/improving existing ones
• Excellent relationship building skills with a desire to be part of a team with a strong internal identity
