– Managing the Product Team

You will develop a strong team of product owners, UX designers and designers. Recruiting, training and coaching your team is the top priority. Developing great people requires a different set of skills than developing great products and you are as comfortable coaching Product Owners in how to engage with stakeholders as you are with communicating the Product vision and roadmap to execs.

– Product Vision

You will work hand in hand with the SVP of Technology, Vice President of Editorial & Audience Development, and Vice President of Revenue to define and drive the product strategy that inspires the company. You’ll guide your team to identify needs, trends, and innovative ways to best serve our audience, and drive revenue across our properties and off-site platforms.

You know how to get things done and have absolutely proven your ability to do so. You are an expert in agile product planning, customer discovery, product discovery, and the product development process. You understand when experimenting and testing out an idea is necessary and how to build out an MVP. You have strong skills in stakeholder management and internal evangelism, and understand that it is as important to communicate the roadmap as it is to build one. You leave your stakeholders with a clear understanding of the plan without bogging them down in the details.

– Culture of experimentation

You will help foster a culture of innovation and experimentation, where the team understands the importance of continuous and testing and learning. Your mantra is Fail Fast and your team is not afraid to pivot if necessary.

About You:

You will:
