Product Manager - Exciting Next Gen Satellite Opportunity

This is an exciting opportunity for a pioneering product manager with a love of innovation to further his/her skills and ambition in the satellite sector.

You’ll be working for a global company at the forefront of maritime, aviation, government and enterprise satellite communications. More specifically, you’ll shape the direction and drive ongoing success of a fast-evolving International Government product portfolio, exploring ways to transform and future proof Land, Maritime and Aero products in line with the company’s next generation multi-orbit satellite strategy.

As part of a small strategic product and innovation team, you’ll immediately take responsibility for the full product lifecycle from conversations with partners, customers and prospects to define market requirements, creating and owning business cases, translating information into technical requirements for engineering teams, and working with “voice of the customer” specialists to ensure feasibility and desirability.

In short, you’ll be a dynamic, assertive individual with a strong understanding of satellite communications (RF) technology and best practice product evolution/transformation. This is so you can hit the ground running, work productively with in-demand engineering teams and present to executive level leaders with confidence.

Not a position for the faint-hearted, rather for someone bold!
