WRK digital is proud to partnering exclusively with an exciting & local Entertainment Platform – currently looking for a Senior Product Manager. Taking end-to-end Product ownership - from early problem definition through to delivery and iteration, structuring and leading discovery work.

Role Brief:
- Experience as a Product Manager in a digital product environment (typically 5+ years), with clear evidence of owning product outcomes end-to-end.
- Defining problems clearly, structuring work, and driving projects from idea through to release working closely with design, development, and leadership.
- Good product judgement - you can recognise what feels right (and wrong) in a product experience
- Familiarity with search, discovery, or content-heavy products
- Experience working in small, fast-moving teams where ownership is expected
Key Areas to be successful.....
Startup Experience
- Experience in navigating early-stage environments has stood out as a key requirement. The client is not a start up but they do have a lot of growth upcoming so want someone who has the experience to navigate this. They are looking for a candidate that can demonstrate starting projects from scratch within their organisations and overseeing these.
Approach to Projects
- Strong candidates are those who approach projects with focus and intention. Rather than presenting a wide range of scattered ideas, they concentrate on a select few concepts they genuinely believe in and can stand behind.
Things we are happy to flex on:
AI Mindset
- It is important that candidates are forward-thinking and “pro-AI.” As long as individuals are open-minded and can see how AI will contribute to the evolution of the project.
Leadership Expectations
- “Team leadership” in this context is more aligned with product leadership rather than direct people management. However, candidates should still be open to guiding and managing a team where required and in the future.
