Senior Product Manager

Exciting opportunity for a stellar Senior Product Manager to join an award-winning VC-backed start-up during its rapid growth phase.

Skimlinks is one of the most well-known startups in the UK, described by Techcrunch as one of London’s leading startups, and voted in the top 10 of the Guardian Tech Media Invest. We build unique and compelling products that allow online publishers to monetize their content.

This exciting role will involve the following:

  • Managing the conceptualisation, launch and optimisation of products within your portfolio.
  • End-to end ownership of products, including user-facing interfaces, back-end systems, and user experience.

  • Collaborating with the business development team and the founders.

  • Understand client needs and feedback from the business development team to conceptualise tools and reports that meet both explicit requests and unspoken internal and external customer needs.
