About the role

The opportunity:

Join a leading NZ-based engineering business developing next-generation solutions that power products used around the world. You’ll set strategy, own the roadmap, and turn customer insights into commercially sound products across high‑volume manufacturing. 
Working closely with product development and key customers, you’ll balance desirability, feasibility, and viability—defining projects that deliver measurable outcomes. You’ll lead the business case, pricing, and investment story, then guide delivery to land it. If you’re keen to pair deep customer understanding with sharp commercial instincts and tangible product outcomes, this is a chance to make a visible impact.

The role:

  • Own category strategy, positioning, and roadmap; articulate customer value and advantage
  • Lead Voice of Customer, translate insights into requirements, use cases, and pricing
  • Define/scope projects with Product Development and customers to deliver differentiating products/services
  • Deliver and own Product Requirement Specifications and product development request documentation
  • Manage category P&L; drive ROI analysis, pricing strategy, and investment cases
  • Prepare and communicate business cases to SLT and key stakeholders
  • Provide market/data-led insights; support product and marketing collateral
  • Guide delivery to balance viability, feasibility, and desirability across hardware/embedded/software
Your fit:
  • You will need senior level experience in product management for technology or manufactured products; high-volume manufacturing exposure ideal
  • Background may include engineering, product design, data, or user research
  • Strong in discovery and delivery methods; comfortable with technical trade-offs
  • Clear storyteller and influencer across execs, engineers, designers, and customers
  • Strong commercial acumen with confidence in forecasting and financial analysis.
