Making animals’ lives better makes life better – join our team today! Your role: Senior Product Manager for Global Web Products As the Senior Product Manager for Global Web Products, you will lead the strategic vision, lifecycle management, and execution of Elanco’s global digital ecosystem. Your scope is large: you will own the overarching digital experience across our pet health, veterinary professional, farm/food animal, and corporate portals worldwide. This is a highly visible leadership role requiring a rare blend of deep technical literacy and exceptional stakeholder management. You will modernize and scale our web presence using a modern, decoupled architecture, anchoring our content delivery on a modern headless CMS infrastructure (Kontent.ai). To succeed, you must be a master of influence, capable of aligning regional business leaders across global time zones and leading massive, distributed engineering teams to deliver world-class digital experiences. Your Responsibilities: Unified Vision: Define and execute a cohesive global product strategy for Elanco’s entire web estate, balancing the unique regulatory and commercial needs of Pet, Vet, Farm, and Corporate channels. Platform Scale: Drive the evolution of our central web platform, ensuring it acts as a scalable, repeatable engine for localized brand sites, technical portals, and corporate hubs. Data-Driven Prioritization: Build, manage, and ruthlessly prioritize a multi-quarter product backlog, translating fragmented global requests into a single, high-impact roadmap. CMS Leadership: Serve as the global business owner and champion for our Headless CMS (Kontent.ai). Establish governance models, content modeling best practices, and taxonomy standards to empower content authors globally. Performance & SEO: Partner with engineering to leverage decoupled architecture to maximize site performance, Core Web Vitals, security, compliance, and global Answer Engine Optimization (AEO). Large-Scale Delivery: Lead, inspire, and manage large, multi-disciplinary engineering teams (front-end, back-end, QA, and DevOps) across internal staff and system integration partners. Agile at Scale: Foster a high-velocity, continuous-delivery engineering culture. Ensure technical debt is balanced effectively against net-new feature delivery. Cross-Time Zone Alignment: Seamlessly collaborate with marketing, commercial operations, regulatory, and corporate affairs teams across North America, LATAM, EMEA, and APAC. Influence Without Authority: Navigate complex matrixed environments to align diverse stakeholders—from corporate executives to regional veterinary marketing managers—on common platform standards, minimizing duplicate regional engineering spend. What You Need to Succeed (minimum qualifications): Years of Experience: 7+ years of digital product management experience, with at least 3+ years managing enterprise-scale web applications or core platform products. Scale & Reach: Proven track record of managing high-traffic web ecosystems across multiple geographies, languages, and strict regulatory environments (e.g., animal health, healthcare, pharma, or fintech). Engineering Leadership: Demonstrated experience directing and influencing large engineering footprints (20+ developers) in an Agile/Scrum framework. Modern Web Architecture: Deep understanding of headless/JAMstack architectures, APIs, and modern frontend frameworks. Headless CMS: Direct, hands-on experience implementing or managing enterprise headless content management systems (specifically Kontent.ai, Contentful, or Strapi). Data & Identity Integration: Familiarity with integrating web platforms with backend services, Customer Data Platforms (CDPs), CRM (e.g., Salesforce), and identity providers. Elite Communication: Exceptional verbal and written communication skills, with a proven ability to distill complex architectural decisions into business value for non-technical executives. Global Empathy: Cultural awareness and flexibility to effectively manage workflows and meetings across widely varied global time zones.
