Job Description

Product Manager, Collective training – SitaWare Aspire

Ready to turn customer insight and new market opportunities into the next chapter of digital defence training? As Product Manager for SitaWare Aspire Collective training, you will lead the strategy and commercial direction for collective training and work closely with the Product Manager for individual training to shape the shared Aspire roadmap.

The job: Lead collective training. Shape SitaWare Aspire together.

You will lead the development and execution of the product strategy for SitaWare Aspire Collective training, defining its future direction, roadmap and commercial success. You will develop the strategy in close collaboration with the Vice President, and innovation will be driven by customer needs and the opportunities AI brings. The Product Manager for individual training holds the same responsibility for the individual training area. Together, collective and individual training form the SitaWare Aspire product, making a strong, interdependent partnership between the two Product Managers essential. You will jointly agree priorities and define the shared Aspire roadmap, ensuring that decisions in each area support the direction and success of the overall product.

In short, you can look forward to:

• identifying and analysing new market opportunities, building the business case and defining the strategy to realise them
• leading concept development for collective training and jointly agreeing priorities and the shared SitaWare Aspire roadmap with the Product Manager responsible for individual training, using business performance and market trends to adjust strategy and tactics together
• defining market requirements through research and dialogue with customers, Sales and domain experts, and working with Defence Product Management, UX designers and architects to develop innovative solutions
• supporting Defence Sales and Defence Services with proposals, product guidance and key customer engagements
• training Sales and Services colleagues at each product release

Your team: Bringing training closer to real operations

You will join Defence Service Development, a committed team of 40+ professionals across Aarhus and Copenhagen. The team develops SitaWare Aspire, a digital platform that brings realistic, hands-on training to users of the SitaWare suite – our command-and-control software for defence environments. Aspire integrates the actual SitaWare application, so users practise in the same interface they use in real operations. Its collective and individual training areas share cloud hosting and pricing, providing a common foundation for the product.

What you bring: Commercial insight that drives product success

You know what it takes to turn a software product’s potential into measurable success. With some years of experience in product management, you bring concrete examples of the impact you have made - and the curiosity to explore what comes next.

To succeed in this role, you bring:

• a master’s degree in software engineering, business development or a related field connecting technology and business
• experience across the product lifecycle - from market and competitor analysis, product discovery, strategy and planning to business cases, pricing and product launches
• a genuine interest in AI, with the curiosity to explore opportunities and the analytical mindset to assess them
• fluent English and excellent communication and collaboration skills that help you build strong partnerships
• excellent stakeholder management skills and an outgoing, enterprising approach to engaging others and moving ideas forward
• a focus on results, strong decision-making skills and the ability to navigate regulations and processes effectively

You will also have opportunities to meet customers, partners and end-users and attend trade shows. The role involves some business travel - around three weeks last year.

Please note that you must be able to present a clean criminal record and have lived in a NATO and/or an EU country for the past seven years as we work with security-classified projects. Read more here.
