Are you ready to shape the future of fashion and design? Do you want to lead a cross-functional, multi-competence product team, take responsibility for a digital product and always keeping customers at the heart of our focus? If the answer is yes, then this opportunity might be something for you! We are now looking for Product Owners to bring in new competence to our new organisation Business Tech.
About the role
We are on a journey together which means there is no clear path. You will play an important role in setting the foundation and creating our future organisation. As a Product Owner, you will take responsibility for a digital product with ultimate accountability for the business and customer value delivered by your product.
To do this, you will lead a cross-functional, multi-competence product team in close collaboration with key stakeholders, always keeping customers at the heart of our focus. You will define the strategic vision for your team and create the product roadmap based on a deep understanding of the market / industry, insights & data on your customers, and input from stakeholders across the company.
Working closely with the Product Area Manager and other Product Owners to ensure overall alignment, you will set objectives & key results that your product will drive toward. You will also identify, build, and manage strategic partnerships across products, working to manage dependencies.
The Product Owner has great leadership skills, believes in a non-hierarchical culture of collaboration, transparency, safety, and trust. Focus is on value creation, growth, and serving customers with full ownership and accountability to deliver exceptional customer and business results.
