Senior Manager / Manager, Commercial Strategy & Product Operations

The Commercial Strategy & Product Operations Manager sits at the critical intersection of Commercial Strategy, Product Operations, and Regional/Local Market Teams across our multi-market ecosystem. In this role, you will be responsible for driving top-line commercial growth, optimizing performance frameworks, and managing key cross-functional stakeholders. While you will not be directly writing PRDs or managing technical engineering sprint backlogs daily, you will act as the crucial bridge between business needs and product capabilities. You will translate local commercial requirements into product roadmap priorities, lead the commercial go-to-market (GTM) execution of product features, and ensure commercial initiatives are fully optimized across all operating markets.
