  • Oversee the full product lifecycle—from discovery, requirements definition, and UX testing through engineering build, QA, UAT, and launch.

  • Ensure releases support seasonal business cycles and deliver measurable improvements.

  • Maintain high-quality documentation, workflows, and operational standards.

Team Leadership & Development

  • Manage and develop a high-performing team of product managers and analysts.

  • Establish clear ownership, role clarity, and growth paths aligned to the reorganized Product Creation Technology structure.

  • Model cross-functional leadership, clear communication, and strategic thinking.

What You Can Bring:

Experience & Domain Knowledge

  • 7–10+ years in Product Management, Technology Product Leadership, or related roles.

  • Deep expertise in product creation processes, including merchandising, design, development, technical design, sustainability & compliance, sourcing, supply chain, planning, and production.

  • Required: strong experience with PLM systems (Centric PLM highly preferred).

  • Working knowledge of integrated enterprise systems including 3D development tools, patternmaking systems, ERP, OMS, WMS, Planning & Allocation, Supplier/Vendor Collaboration platforms, and reporting/data integrations.

Leadership & Strategic Skills

  • Demonstrated experience leading product managers and analysts, including coaching, prioritization guidance, and career development.

  • Ability to define and articulate a multi-year product vision, investment case, and roadmap across systems and user groups.

  • Strong strategic acumen: able to evaluate tradeoffs, balance innovation with operational health, and sequence work to maximize ROI.
