Everyone is welcome at Handshake. We know diverse teams build better products and we are committed to creating an inclusive culture built on a foundation of respect for all individuals. We strongly encourage candidates from non-traditional backgrounds, historically marginalized or underrepresented groups to apply.
Handshake is hiring a Director, Product Management, Consumer Growth, reporting to the President and Chief Product Officer. This person will drive the strategy and execution of our consumer growth strategy, helping Handshake continue in its evolution from the top college job board to the career network for Gen Z, as reflected in a majority share of the early talent audience using Handshake daily / weekly / monthly along their career journey.
This role has a unique opportunity to work alongside the CEO, President and other top leaders of the company to drive an increase in the top company KPI, consumer engagement, and to make Handshake ubiquitous with Gen Z and the people who want to recruit them. Handshake has been evolving the foundations of our marketplace to make it possible for anyone to use Handshake and share content (their profile, a helpful video, a new job) to friends and family outside of Handshake, and to build out the foundations of a social content & community experience that meets more user needs around career discovery and exploration, in addition to the active job search. All of these investments are now live or about to launch, providing all ingredients for a high-powered growth team to build the activation and engagement loops that can make Handshake ubiquitous with Gen Z - students, alumni, young employees or all the above - by solving real problems along their career journey.
To achieve this vision, you’ll be leading a team of PMs, engineers, designers and marketers and collaborating closely with our partnerships teams to build a truly game-changing consumer product and dramatically inflect our consumer engagement and the Handshake market opportunity.
You are obsessed with driving growth. You consistently drive demonstrable impact for your companies, improving the experience for users and inflecting the business. You set the pace and the tone for your teams, knowing that growth impact is driven in part by maximizing shots on goal, balancing speed and perfection. You have high expectations for yourself and your teams and inspire others to meet your high bar.
And you care. A lot. You care about your work, your team, the people using your product and about the mission of Handshake to help everyone find a great job and build a great career. And it shows in everything you do.
For cash compensation, we set standard ranges for all U.S.-based roles based on function, level, and geographic location, benchmarked against similar stage growth companies. In order to be compliant with local legislation, as well as to provide greater transparency to candidates, we share salary ranges on all job postings regardless of desired hiring location. Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors, including geographic location as well as candidate experience and expertise, and may vary from the amounts listed above.
Handshake is the career platform for Gen Z. With a community of over 17 million students, alumni, employers, and career educators, Handshake’s network is where career advice and discovery turn into first, second, and third jobs. Nearly 1 million companies use Handshake to build their future workforce—from Fortune 500 to federal agencies, school districts to startups, healthcare systems to small businesses. Handshake is built for where you’re going, not where you’ve been.
When it comes to our workforce strategy, we’ve thought deeply about how work-life should look at Handshake. With our hybrid-work model, employees benefit from collaboration and shared team experiences three days per week in our vibrant offices, and enjoy the flexibility of remote work two days per week.
