  • Lead complex product initiatives including new capability launches, platform enhancements, integrations, migrations, workflow transformations, and emerging AI-enabled experiences.
  • Evaluate vendor and enterprise platform roadmaps, emerging functionality, and industry trends to identify opportunities that deliver meaningful business and seller value.
  • Structure ambiguous business problems and use quantitative and qualitative evidence to develop clear product and investment recommendations.
  • Develop executive-ready business cases that assess expected benefits, costs, implementation complexity, dependencies, risk, and strategic alignment to inform annual and multi-year investment planning.
  • Maintain a current- and future-state view of products across the seller journey, identifying capability gaps, overlaps, and opportunities for integration or simplification.
  • Partner across Sales Tools Strategy, Experience & Insights, Technology, Risk, Compliance, Operations, and other stakeholders to deliver capabilities, establish success measures, and continuously improve product performance.
  • Develop strong relationships with external vendors and internal platform teams, influencing product roadmaps based on GCS business requirements and seller needs.
  • Lead cross-functional teams and communicate product strategy, business cases, roadmap priorities, tradeoffs, and outcomes effectively to senior leaders and stakeholders.

Minimum Qualifications

  • 4+ years of experience in Product Management, Product Strategy, Business Transformation, Strategy & Operations, Sales Enablement, or a related discipline.
  • Demonstrated experience leading complex products, capabilities, or cross-functional strategic initiatives from opportunity identification and evaluation through recommendation and implementation.
  • Strong structured problem-solving and strategic thinking skills, with the ability to navigate ambiguity, evaluate alternatives and tradeoffs, and translate complex business and technology considerations into clear, evidence-based recommendations.
  • Strong quantitative and business acumen, with experience analyzing data, sizing opportunities, developing business cases, and/or assessing the potential value and impact of product or technology investments.
  • Demonstrated ability to translate business and user needs into product priorities, capability requirements, or strategic recommendations
  • Proven ability to influence stakeholders and drive alignment across highly matrixed organizations, including business, product, technology, and other cross-functional partners.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience developing product strategies and roadmaps, evaluating competing priorities, and making recommendations on where and how to invest across a product or technology portfolio.
  • Experience evaluating third-party products, vendor roadmaps, enterprise platforms, and emerging technology capabilities to assess strategic fit, business value, feasibility, and potential user impact.
  • Experience evaluating or implementing Generative AI, AI-enabled products, workflow automation, or other emerging technologies, including assessing where new capabilities create meaningful business value.

  • Familiarity with CRM, sales enablement, sales engagement, enterprise SaaS, or seller productivity technologies.
  • Experience using product analytics, customer or user insights, pilots, experimentation, or test-and-learn approaches to evaluate opportunities and inform product decisions.
  • Experience working within Agile product development environments and partnering with technology and customer-facing organizations to translate business needs and seller workflows into implemented capabilities.
