Our team is incredibly diverse, with over 20 nationalities globally. We value smart and innovative people who thrive in team environments and embody a global mindset.
About the Role
We are seeking a “Director of Product Management” to own and drive the Portfolio Monitoring product area. This is a customer-facing leadership role where you will:
- Work directly with large, sophisticated institutional clients who require complex customization, configuration, and integration.
- Define the product vision and roadmap for portfolio monitoring, translating client needs into scalable product capabilities.
- Collaborate closely with Sales, Customer Success, and Engineering to deliver solutions that win and retain enterprise accounts.
The ideal candidate comes from a B2B enterprise software background in private markets, alternative investments, or financial data, with direct experience managing products where client-specific configuration and white-glove engagement are pivotal.
Key Responsibilities
- Own the product vision, strategy, and 12-month roadmap for the Portfolio Monitoring product, ensuring alignment with CEPRES’ business objectives and market opportunities.
- Participate in annual strategic planning with business leadership, bringing market intelligence, competitive analysis, and technology feasibility insights to shape commercial priorities.
- Maintain structured systematic market and competitive intelligence, grounding roadmap prioritization and strategy in quantifiable data rather than anecdotal sales input.
- Serve as the primary product voice in client engagements, including:
- Sales cycles, product demos, discovery workshops.
- Scoping solutions for enterprise prospects and existing accounts.
- Translate large-scale customization requests into scalable, repeatable product capabilities for broader market adoption.
- Partner with Sales and Customer Success to develop account-specific strategies, ensuring product alignment with contractual commitments.
- Oversee multiple agile development squads, promoting coordinated execution, cross-team collaboration, and continuous improvement in product delivery.
- Champion price positioning and go-to-market (GTM) strategy, collaborating with Marketing to refine competitive differentiation, messaging, and pricing strategies.
- Develop partnerships with strategic data providers and technology vendors to enhance the product ecosystem.
- Mentor and develop the product management team, fostering a culture of client empathy, analytical rigor, and continuous learning.
- Monitor product performance, adoption metrics, and client satisfaction to refine strategic decisions and prioritization.
