Product Owner

Product Owner – Event Management We’re looking for a Product Owner to lead our Events product within the Private Member Club ecosystem. This role focuses on everything from Club-hosted events to Member/Guest-hosted events and banquets. Your mandate: ensure our software delivers flawless planning and execution with accurate Banquet Event Orders (BEOs), seamless online registration, tight coordination with F&B and Reservations, and clear communication for staff and members. Responsibilities Voice of the Customer & Market Insight Build trusted relationships with Events Directors, Catering/Banquet Managers, and Member Services to map real workflows end-to-end. Run structured VOC programs (interviews, site visits, call-shadowing, feedback loops) to capture needs around inquiries > proposals > contracts > BEOs > execution > billing. Conduct competitive and comparative research on event tech to identify must-have features and modern UX patterns, then adapt them to the unique nuances of private clubs. Product Strategy & Vision Define a clear Events product vision and multi-release roadmap covering: Accurate BEO creation & change control, version history, approvals. Online registration & waitlists (member eligibility, pricing rules, guest policies). Proposals, contracts, deposits, and integrations to AR/Finance. Room/space management, equipment, staffing, and setup/teardown timelines. F&B coordination (menus, modifiers, dietary needs) and day-of execution tools. Set measurable outcomes: BEO accuracy %, registration conversion, on-time BEO finalization, no-show reduction, NPS/CSAT, adoption metrics. Execution & Delivery Own and prioritize the Events backlog; write crisp epics, user stories, and acceptance criteria that reflect real operational edge cases. Partner with Engineering, Design, and QA to ship high-quality features with predictable cadence; ensure test plans mirror real banquet and member-event scenarios. Coordinate cross-product dependencies (F&B, Finance, Reservations, Websites/Mobile) so the end-to-end experience is seamless. Validate with customers via prototypes, betas, and controlled rollouts; close the loop with data and feedback. Go-to-Market & Stakeholder Enablement Work with Customer Success, Training, and Support to prepare playbooks, BEO templates, and “day-of” checklists. Partner with Marketing and Sales on messaging that reflects true operational value (accuracy, speed, guest experience, staff confidence). Maintain transparent roadmap communications and change logs for internal teams and lighthouse clubs. Qualifications Experience in event management, catering/banquets, or private clubs (highly preferred), plus 2–5 years in a Product Owner/Manager/Analyst role. Proven ability to translate complex event workflows into clear requirements and intuitive software. Strong grasp of UI/UX for multi-step workflows (inquiry > booking > BEO > execution > billing). Evidence‑based decision‑maker with excellent written and verbal communication; comfortable presenting to diverse stakeholders. Skilled at prioritization and trade‑offs; can say “no” thoughtfully, explain why, and keep teams aligned. Collaborative partner to designers and engineers; calm under pressure and steady during live‑event timelines.
