Orchestrating Enterprise Product Evolution

Lead product strategy and transformation in a fast-growing enterprise software company. Drive the shift to a modular platform, strengthen product governance, and build a scalable product organisation in a complex environment.

Your responsibilities and tasks

  • Define and lead the Product operating model, including governance, decision rights, prioritisation frameworks, and clear interfaces with Engineering, Sales, Operations, and Business Development.
  • Establish structured intake and prioritisation mechanisms to translate uncoordinated demand into a coherent, transparent, and executable product roadmap.
  • Take end-to-end ownership of product roadmap governance and ensure prioritisation decisions are consistently executed across Product Engineering and related functions.
  • Drive discipline in product execution by reducing noise, managing competing stakeholder demands, and safeguarding focus on strategic priorities.
  • Define and evolve the long-term product vision and strategy, guiding the transition toward a modular, API-first and scalable next-generation platform.
  • Build, develop, and scale the Product Management organisation, strengthening capability, leadership depth, and product ownership across a growing team.
  • Your background and experience

  • Proven senior product leadership experience in complex enterprise software environments (EAM/ERP is an advantage), ideally within international and multi-country organisations operating at scale. Experience in regulated or mission-critical environments is considered a strong advantage.
  • Strong track record in product transformation, including evolution from legacy platforms towards modular, scalable, and API-first architectures.
  • Experience building, restructuring, or significantly upgrading Product Management organisations, with end-to-end ownership of product operating models and roadmap governance.
  • Demonstrated ability to define and maintain product sustainability and long-term product health, beyond feature-driven development.
  • Experience operating in highly complex, execution-heavy environments with multiple stakeholders and competing priorities.
  • Fluent in English; Dutch is preferred. Any other additional European language is an asset.
  • Interested?
