Product Manager

Nowjobs is a digital staffing platform active in Belgium, France and the Netherlands. We connect tens of thousands of businesses with the largest pool of flexible workers in those markets. Apart from smart, automated matching, we cover the full payroll process, as well as planning, time registration and in-app chat. Given our focus on simplicity and UX, we're able to serve both the small bakery or shop around the corner all the way up to large companies like McDonalds, Carrefour, Tomorrowland, Just Eat Takeaway, etc. We're a fast-growing company that combines the scale of a large business with the agility of a true scale-up. To support our continued growth, we're looking for an experienced Product Manager to join our Product team. In this role, you'll play a key part in connecting our Belgian and French teams and ensuring smooth collaboration across markets. We have offices in Ghent, Paris and Utrecht. This position will be based across our Ghent and Paris offices, working in a hybrid setup (3 out of 5 days on-site). What sets us apart from the typical SaaS PM role is that we combine a B2B-SaaS-like product for our business customers with a B2C product for our candidates. This offers a unique set of product challenges and a scale of user base which is rarely found in SaaS. About the role We empower our product teams to solve hard problems – customer problems and business problems – in ways that our customers love, yet work for our business. Our product teams are cross-functional and durable, comprising a product manager, a product designer, and several engineers. You will continuously collaborate with your team to prioritize the right initiatives and solutions to hit the goals of your strategic theme. You will be accountable to hit these goals and for ensuring your proposed solutions are both valuable (our customers choose to buy or use) and viable (the solution works within the many constraints of the business). Your counterparts will be accountable for usability and feasibility. At every step of the process though, it's a joint effort. One of the key parts of your role is to provide the necessary context to the team about the business goals, the market, the user needs, any business constraints, etc For this, you will engage in product research and data analysis as well as track industry trends and the competitive landscape. Aside from product discovery, you will work with your team to get your solutions validated, tested and delivered via an agile iterative process. You will work closely with Product Marketing and the Commercial team to successfully launch your solutions to our customers and the market. You understand that shipping product is not enough, and that the real goal lies in delivering impact. For this, you will closely measure usage and business metrics and follow-up on customer feedback. You will translate this into a clear narrative and report back on this to key stakeholders to make a case for further iterations, investments or inputs into the product strategy. This is an individual contributor role so you will have to work through others to achieve the necessary results. This means you need to be able to influence your teammates, as well as colleagues, stakeholders, and key executives, through your use of data and logic. In an ideal world... You have minimum 3 years of work experience in a similar position on technology-powered products. Demonstrated understanding of the techniques and methods of modern product discovery and product delivery, including how you can fast-track this with AI. Excellent communication skills in English and French, and able to communicate effectively with people from different levels of the organization as well as external stakeholders. Able to figure out solutions to hard problems with many constraints, using sound judgement to assess risks, and to lay out your argument in a well-structured, data-informed, written narrative. Strong team player with experience working in agile methodologies with technical and design teams. Able to learn from and collaborate with multiple functional areas of business – customer success, sales & marketing, finance and legal. Able to think strategically and communicate a sound product vision. Can work independently and handle accountability well What can you expect from us? The best results require the best conditions.
