Requirements

Strategic Product Manager – Workforce Management (WFM)

About the Role
We are seeking a strategic, hands-on Product Manager to own, innovate, and scale a key WFM product line. This role is for a true product creator, someone who combines deep domain knowledge in workforce management with the commercial mindset and execution needed to bring innovative, high-impact products to market.
You will own the end-to-end product lifecycle, from shaping vision and strategy to driving successful launches, adoption, and ongoing growth. You will engage directly with strategic customers, partners, and cross-functional teams to deliver solutions that solve real-world challenges in contact centres and complex enterprise environments.
Key Responsibilities
• Own the WFM Product Vision & Strategy:
Develop, articulate, and execute a compelling vision and strategic roadmap for the WFM product line, aligned to customer needs, market trends, and company goals.
• Drive Full Product Lifecycle:
Lead the end-to-end process from market discovery and concept validation through launch, adoption, and scaling. Measure success against business outcomes (growth, adoption, customer satisfaction, retention).
• Be the Customer and Market Expert:
Deeply understand contact centre and workforce management domains. Identify emerging needs, market shifts, and technology trends to create differentiated offerings.
• Product Creation & Innovation:
Identify new product opportunities, develop business cases, and lead ideation, design, and MVP/prototype delivery. Take a hands-on approach to both strategy and execution.
• Strategic Stakeholder Engagement:
Act as the product ambassador with key customers (including enterprise and strategic accounts), executive sponsors, and partners. Gather high-level feedback and incorporate it into roadmap decisions.
• Go-to-Market Ownership
Work closely with commercial, customer success, and marketing teams to define go-to-market, pricing, and enablement.
• Cross-functional Leadership:
Collaborate with engineering, UX, QA, support, and operations to deliver high-quality products on time and to specification. Champion a culture of ownership and continuous improvement.

Job responsibilities

Experience & Skills (10- 15 Years)
• Must-have:
o 7 years relevant experience in product management (ideally SaaS/enterprise), with a strong track record of launching and scaling B2B workforce management, contact centre, or enterprise SaaS products.
o 5+ years of direct WFM, scheduling, or real-time analyst experience (preferably in a contact centre environment), with hands-on familiarity with WFM platforms (NICE, Verint, Assembled, etc.).
o Proven experience managing the end-to-end product lifecycle, driving commercial outcomes (including pricing, EAP, and GTM).
o Deep understanding of key WFM metrics (adherence, shrinkage, occupancy, schedule optimisation, forecast variance).
o Proven ability to create, launch, and grow new products or major features, not just incremental delivery or backlog management.
o Demonstrated strategic and commercial acumen, including business case development, go-to-market, and revenue/growth responsibility.
o Experience engaging directly with executive-level customers, strategic partners, and cross-functional teams.
o Strong technical understanding of SaaS, cloud ecosystems, and the software delivery lifecycle.
o Excellent communication, leadership, and stakeholder management skills.
• Nice to have:
