  • Leadership : Ability to influence, inspire, and build consensus across technical and non‑technical stakeholders.
  • Execution : Proven track record of delivering complex digital products from concept through to launch and growth.
  • Analytical & Strategic : Data‑driven mindset with the ability to zoom out on vision while drilling down into detail.
  • Communication : Excellent written and verbal communication skills, able to represent product both internally and externally.
  • Familiarity with agile development, product discovery, and roadmap prioritisation frameworks.
  • Previous leadership of a product team in a scaling SaaS company.
  • €55,000 - €65,000 a year
