• Bachelor’s degree in Marketing, Advertising, or an equivalent combination of education and work experience. • Significant experience in product management, digital product strategy, subscription growth, audience development, or a related commercial discipline, with demonstrated responsibility for advancing technology products. • Demonstrated success turning early-stage ideas into launched products, commercial offerings, partnerships, or revenue-producing programs. • Experience owning a product roadmap, prioritizing development, defining requirements, and working closely with engineering and design teams. • Strong commercial judgment, including experience assessing market demand, developing business cases, and evaluating financial potential. • Understanding of subscription economics and the relationship between acquisition, pricing, engagement, churn, and customer lifetime value. • Ability to interpret product and audience data, assess experiments, and translate findings into clear development priorities. • Experience negotiating partnerships and working with senior decision-makers inside and outside an organization. • Ability to lead complex, cross-functional initiatives, with strong communication, presentation, and relationship-management skills. • Comfort operating in a changing environment with a high degree of ownership and ambiguity, and a practical, entrepreneurial approach to execution. • Ability and willingness to travel as business needs require. • Experience in media, subscriptions, membership, local commerce, education, technology, or another industry undergoing business-model transformation is helpful but not required. • Familiarity with paywalls, customer data platforms, experimentation tools, or payment and renewal systems is vital.
