CulverCareers Product Management Recruiters

Let Us Pair You With A Top Product Manager

Every company should understand the product or service that they offer. They should have extensive knowledge about the scope of competition in the market and the problems they are trying to solve for their customers. From strategic planning leadership to UI design to product marketing, there is one role that is involved every step of the way of this process; The product manager.

Product management was born from the concept of branding and has become even more important with the incorporation of technology into every aspect of life. In most companies, the communication gap between the IT or engineering departments and the marketing team and sales force is cavernous and needs to be bridged by a professional who understands both sides of the industry.

Finding and recruiting a product manager can be a difficult challenge, especially since a great product manager goes above and beyond to truly own their product. They take responsibility for its success or failure and are there every step of the way, from researching consumer needs before development even begins, to surveying customers post-release and implementing design changes and updates over time. They act as a director of all processes involving their product and have strong executive decision-making capabilities.

CulverCareers’ product management recruiters know where to find the best professionals who are skilled in the many areas necessary to successfully handle every element of this role. 

What Does A Product Manager Do?

Honestly, a better question might be “What doesn’t a product manager do?”. One of the things that can make finding a skilled product manager so challenging is all of the different hats that a product manager is expected to wear.

While exact responsibilities will vary, mostly based on how many employees your firm has in its product management department, here are some examples of responsibilities a product manager or product executive might be in charge of:

• Develop product vision and strategy
• Manage product marketing campaigns
• Define timelines for product development and release
• Act as a leader and liaison between development, IT, engineering, marketing, sales, customer support, and executive leadership
• Research competition and market saturation
• Work closely with development, IT, and engineering to determine the feasibility of product vision, and continue working alongside them throughout development and product testing
• Envision related products and services and decide which avenues to pursue
• Coordinate with outside vendors on partnerships and integrations
• Leadership among the product marketing team will manage other product managers and coordinate between product management groups
• Be responsible for P&L related to products they own

This list is just the beginning when it comes to all of the job duties expected of a product management professional. The ability to play such an important role in so many areas of product development, marketing, strategic decision-making, and management requires certain skill sets, and our product management and executive search recruitment professionals know how to find the talent out there capable of such dynamic and comprehensive management.
