Product Manager

Description

The Product Manager will be responsible for products throughout their lifecycle. From identifying candidate Products and services based on market opportunities, through design, productionisation, release, operation and retirement/migration. You will work closely with the Corporate Division as well as Technical Teams and Customer Success.

As a Product Manager you will be responsible for the product roadmap to address the developments needed to detect toxic, illegal and brand damaging social media content to protect our customers and their brands. You will also think carefully about the User Experience that underpins customer satisfaction with our products. You will have had customer facing experience, and will be motivated to engage with our customers to really understand the market and their individual needs. As a result of this, you will be expected to be comfortable working at strategic as well as operational (and occasionally tactical) levels.

In this role, you will develop a deep understanding of key competitors and relentlessly focus on our unique value proposition and points of differentiation. Working with senior stakeholders you will carefully consider the market focus of our products and ensure that our risk coverage, reporting outputs and data analytics lead the field in the sectors in which we choose to play.

You will collaborate closely with the Account Management, Service Quality, Human Intelligence and Service Desk teams to ensure you collate all customer requirements, as well as the internal requirements for the product /service development.

You will be an advocate for our customers and our users (Human Intelligence Analysts), internal and external, and will coordinate the people and process with the technology. Ideally, you will have previously worked in a SaaS / Technology environment where you have partnered with and represented external customers, acting as an advocate for their needs. You’ll also understand UX/UI and will ensure this is factored into the roadmap and development activities. Our services offer a blend of Technology and Human skills and managing this blend is a major factor in our success.
