To thrive in the platform world, companies must continue to innovate their products and business models. Four imperatives (1. Real Identity, 2. Dynamic, Diverse and Disruptive Creativity 3., Smart Media and 4. Direct Relationships) via our suite of world-class agencies, are necessary for modern brands to win in the platform world.

The Team

You’ll join our Media Operations Product Team in Dusseldorf, Germany, a cross-functional group that drives product development across our Unified OS platform—an internal tool suite that powers everything from media planning and audience generation to campaign activation and reporting.

You'll work within the Sales Servicing team, a strategic application within the platform that enables global configuration and deployment across markets. You’ll partner with an international group of engineers (EU, India, Eastern Europe) and collaborate closely with other product managers, client servicing teams, and technical leads.

The Role

We're looking for a Product Manager to help shape the evolution of one of our most business-critical internal platforms.

In this role, you’ll lead the roadmap for a high profile media application used by our client management teams. You will be guiding its transformation as we consolidate legacy systems into a unified global platform. You'll drive requirement gathering, write clear user stories, manage sprint planning, and ensure seamless delivery with engineering partners.

This is a unique opportunity to work on a high-impact product at the intersection of media operations and technology, with real ownership and visibility across the organisation.

Responsibilities:

• Collaborate with stakeholders to define requirements and translate them into actionable concepts and user stories
• Own and manage the product backlog; lead sprint planning and quarterly goal setting
• Work closely with developers to ensure high-quality delivery and feature releases
• Coordinate with other product teams to ensure alignment and integration across the platform
• Track progress, evaluate performance, and communicate updates to stakeholders

Qualifications:

• Experience in product or technical project management (ideally with web applications)
• A strong grasp of how digital platforms work, including data flows and integration points
• Experienced in working closely with engineers in agile development environments
• The ability to navigate complex stakeholder landscapes and drive clarity
• Excellent communication skills in English (German is a plus)

Bonus points if you have:

• Exposure to media, advertising, or digital marketing environments
• Familiarity with agile methodologies like Scrum or SAFe
• A background in engineering with a passion for product

Why join us?

• Shape a high-impact, in-house platform that powers media operations across our global Publicis network
