Digital Product Manager

Still reading? Please continue reading! And find out about our latest vacancy below.

Once upon a time, there were two guys who studied at the Design Academy Eindhoven and loved DJing at parties: Pieter-Jan and Robin. Both coming from entrepreneurial families, they started a successful digital innovation agency named OWOW, meaning the ‘Omnipresent World of Wizkids’. The dictionary defines a wizkid as “a person who is unusually intelligent, clever, or successful, especially at an early age.” Robin and Pieter-Jan run the agency with one motto in mind: not seriously running a serious business.

Today, a team of 30+ wizkids design and develop jaw–dropping digital products to be loved by millions. We strive to be the best in the industry. However, we realize excellence and talent are not enough to become the leader in the industry. That’s why our most important values are ambitious and fun, while remaining professional and truthful. We realize we cannot strive for great processes and results with egos in the room, so we leave them at the door, or even better: at home.

🚀 About your role and the team

Due to rapid growth, we are looking for a driven and enthusiastic Digital Product Manager to take our products to the next level! Managing the product process both internally and externally is your main responsibility. You’ll be involved in the quoting for new projects, creating project strategies and leading those projects with your team. You’ll manage the translation from design to development, while you keep the client up to date in a positive way. In short: a great combination of project management, product management and product ownership.

💪 Let’s get specific. This is what you’ll be doing

You will be the link between the client and the team. From the start to the delivery, you create the product strategy and you will provide structure and clear information about the product, project and process. It will be your responsibility to plan and budget, as well as to deliver a quality product. Some of the tasks you’ll find yourself doing:

• Create the product strategy together with the client
• Client meetings for the project introduction and progress update
• Project planning and budgeting
• Upselling within your own client portfolio
• Working closely with your team on a daily basis, resulting in the best results
• Write the functional analysis
• Work in Jira and Confluence
• Discuss changes and feedback with design and development teams
• Celebrate when the project is delivered! 🥂
