We do this by building industry-specific vendor management & procurement software that connects over 6,000 buildings & 50,000 vendors in a single marketplace. We improve efficiency & reduce cost for property managers while driving new business to vendors across the continent.

Our team is passionate about growth, innovation, and collaboration - if you are passionate about making an impact and putting in the work to get there, you’re likely a great fit for our team

The Role

As the Director of Product, you’ve built products to scale, and have a track record of leading high-performance teams. You'll get to make and drive significant decisions that have a high level impact on the business while redefining the industry. Ideally, you have experience in leading Product in a B2B/B2C marketplace; supporting a business from Series A fundraising, through multiple rounds and perhaps a successful exit.

As a Member of Our Team You Will

If you are looking for an environment where creativity and ingenuity are highly valued and where success requires close collaboration with the rest of your team, this role may be a great fit for you

  • Collaborate on product strategy, road-mapping, and accountable for roadmap execution across the organization.
  • Proven track record collaborating on implementing PLG strategies that drive user acquisition, engagement, and retention. The director of product should be experienced in data-driven decision-making to optimize product features and user experiences.
  • Create and empower a professional product management discipline. You’ll lead a multi-functional product team and contribute to the recruitment of experienced Product Managers, and Designers from your network who have overseen multiple stages of the lifecycle as needed.
  • Hire experienced product managers who have shipped products at scale and then managed them through their lifecycle.
  • Represent product management across the organization. Product is the central spoke in communicating with, integrating feedback from, and pushing back on design, engineering, sales, marketing, operations, customer support, and other functions. This means product managers need to build deep relationships in each team and be able to work with many different functions and personality types effectively.
  • Empower PMs in the organization to work effectively and get things done. The director of product should also clearly define, and get cross-company buy-in on, the roles and responsibilities of PMs and the adoption of simple production processes.
  • Build programs to train and support new employees. Ensure that VendorPM has proper mentoring and training to support new PMs, and work with Directors to ensure the same for all product teams.
  • Set cross-company product management processes. Develop processes needed to run product development efficiently, prioritize product decisions, and launch products. This includes experience with a multi-functional launch calendar, writing product requirement documents (PRDs), and navigating cross-functional input and trade-offs for products. Work with the VP of Operations to ensure the adoption of these processes.

You’re the Missing Piece of the Puzzle

  • 10 + years experience in all aspects of Product - driving growth through innovation and relentless execution.
