Beschreibung

• Own the end-to-end product lifecycle for the entire Brecknell Scales portfolio — from new product discovery and market validation through launch, growth, maturity, and obsolescence/end-of-life planning. • Conduct regular product health checks and market analysis per key sector (medical, vet, food service, postal, etc.) to identify gaps, growth opportunities, and missing product needs. • Translate customer, sales, and market insights into clear product requirements, prioritized feature requests, and a multi-year global product roadmap. • Act as the primary voice of the customer and global market, ensuring Brecknell products remain simple to set up and use “out of the box” while reducing technical support needs. • Define and maintain product positioning, value propositions, and go-to-market strategies, with emphasis on globalization (harmonized SKUs across USA, UK, and ROW where possible). • Lead New Product Introduction (NPI) activities, targeting faster time-to-market (ideally 5–6 months), including pricing strategy, launch planning, sales enablement, training, brochures, manuals, datasheets, and website updates. • Manage supplier relationships with key Chinese partners, including price negotiations, quality improvements, lead time management, new product development, and proactive identification of next-generation suppliers to maintain cost competitiveness and quality. • Monitor and resolve obsolescence, component shortages, inventory/SMI/stockout issues, and quality holds in collaboration with purchasing, quality, and regional teams. • Ensure full regulatory compliance across regions (NTEP, OIML, NSF, FDA registration/listing, UPC-A/EAN-13 barcodes, safe battery shipping certificates, etc.) and manage associated annual fees/renewals. • Analyze product performance metrics (sales, margin, adoption, returns, warranty data, customer feedback) and conduct competitive analysis to drive improvements, portfolio rationalization, and margin protection on unique/owned products (e.g., Electrosamson, 6700U, ZP and Salter products). • Partner with marketing to keep all product documentation, images, quick-start guides (including French/Spanish), and sales tools up to date. • Interpret technical specifications, drawings, and datasheets, translating them into clear, customer-friendly language and supporting private labeling/OEM opportunities. • Drive initiatives for product enhancement to extend product lifecycle, keep products simple, easy to use and low-cost while adding smart features/benefits. • Support annual pricing reviews, price list updates (including Shopify/discontinued lists), and PLS/phase-out decisions. • Provide Technical support to customers and end users for the UK/RoW (NA tech support provided from Fairmont

🎯 Anforderungen

• Proven product management experience ideally, in the weighing/scales industry, or similar technical/consumer hardware products, ideally with exposure to China-sourced supply chains. • Strong technical competence in mechanical, electrical, and software aspects of scales and indicators, with the ability to understand and simplify complex specification and certification requirements for end users. • Understanding of global compliance and certification requirements (NTEP, OIML, NSF, FDA, barcode systems) and experience managing supplier lifecycles, quality issues, lead times, and cost pressures. • Excellent communication skills (written and verbal) at all levels — with customers, distributors, internal teams (USA/UK/China), and senior stakeholders. • Strong analytical and data-driven decision-making skills, combined with practical problem-solving for customer applications and business outcomes. • Self-motivated with excellent organizational skills; able to manage multiple priorities, projects, and ongoing tasks (e.g., manuals updates, supplier evaluations, pricing). • Experience or willingness to engage directly with Chinese suppliers, conduct supplier visits, and drive development projects. • A results-oriented mindset focused on growing revenue while protecting margins, reducing time-to-market, minimizing stockouts, and keeping products simple and reliable. • Knowledge of key Brecknell markets (medical, vet, food service, postal, industrial fishing) and distribution channels (retail, catalogues, internet, dealers, OEM) is highly desirable.
