Job Description

Excited to work for a key Belgian player in the energy landscape?

The Belgian and European energy landscape is in full swing. Did you know that Elia Belgium plays a crucial role in this? As part of Elia Group, a European transmission system operator, Elia Belgium ensures the reliability and sustainability of the electricity supply in our country.

Side-by-side with your talented colleagues, you will play a part in building a sustainable, green and reliable energy infrastructure that stimulates economic growth and reduces our ecological footprint.

Only together can we make the biggest impact possible! We believe in the power of diversity: we are convinced that an inclusive and diverse work environment leads to more innovation, creativity and better results.

Product Lead Platform & Enabler Solutions Requisition ID: 11261 Posting Start Date: 10/11/2026

Function

Elia plays a leading role in developing electricity markets, furthering access to these and establishing ancillary services, thereby ensuring grid security, efficiency and reliability. As Belgium's transmission system operator, Elia is at the forefront of the energy transition — integrating massive volumes of renewable energy sources, enabling the electrification, and designing the flexibility solutions that will allow society to reach a techno-economic optimum.

Within Elia, the Platform & Enables Solutions (PES) product cluster is responsible for foundational products that make this vision a reality: designing, building and operating solutions that empower internal teams to build high-value products and enable efficient, effective service to Elia’s external clients and partners. More specifically PES delivers trusted, scalable foundations such as client portals, functional platforms for authorisation and access, metering and settlement systems, client and contract repository, customer relationship management system, transparency and reporting platforms.

About the role

As a Product Lead at PES, you support the other product clusters to deliver high value and quality products to our clients and partners. You will own one of our product lines — leading its vision, guiding its strategy, and ensuring it delivers real value to our customers and has a measurable impact to Elia and the society.

This role is about making the right choices, aligning teams around what matters most, and building the conditions for our product teams to thrive. You will report to the Head of Products, working alongside other Product Leads and Chapter Leads (design, data, engineering, ...) to set the direction for Elia's product portfolio.

You will work on very crucial topics, at the heart of the challenges linked to the energy transition: evolution of energy markets to unlock flexibility and the timely connection of the new production units and new consumption centers.

Your mission

You are responsible for the strategic success of your product line: ensuring we solve the right problems for our customers/partners and society, and deliver business outcomes for Elia. Concretely, this means:

• Ensuring your product line has a clear, insight-driven strategy and a roadmap aligned with PES and Elia strategy
• Empowering product teams to work on the most valuable problems, with the context, autonomy, and support they need
• Acting as the strategic bridge between product teams, internal stakeholders and senior leadership - making sure everyone is aligned and informed

What you'll do

Strategy

• Define and continuously refine the product line vision and strategy in alignment with PES strategy
• Translate Elia's strategic priorities (Robustness, Product Evolution & Efficiency, Consumer Intimacy, Flexibility & Data Services) into clear product bets

Execution

• Lead the key ceremonies for your product line: product weeklies, roadmap reviews, insights reviews, and stakeholder touchpoints
• Enable continuous discovery and delivery — ensuring teams talk regularly to customers, run structured experiments, and remove blockers
• Represent the product line to senior leadership; serve as the primary point of escalation for product decisions
• Foster alignment with departments in charge of operations, to capture their needs and to enable a feedback loop from actual operations, to ensure that the solutions of your line are continuously improved
• Ensure close alignment with the key account managers of the Customers department to leverage their knowledge of our clients to shape the priorities and the design of the solutions.
• Collaborate closely with other Product Leads to manage cross-product-lines dependencies and maintain portfolio coherence

People & Governance

• Coach and develop your Product Managers and Product Owners across the six core competencies: Strategy, Discovery, Delivery, Marketing, Analytics, and Leadership
• Define clear roles, responsibilities, and development plans for your product team
• Foster a culture of discovery, evidence-based decision-making, and outcome-focused delivery
• Set measurable KPIs for product success and team performance; act as the ultimate accountable owner for your product line's budget and performance metrics
• Ensure effective product governance across the full lifecycle — from innovation and discovery through to in-life management and retirement

External stakeholder engagement

• You are leading the stakeholder engagement for the products developed in your product line
• You set the agenda and the content of the engagement with our clients and partners, to support the development of your solutions
• You engage and align with the regulators at federal and regional level, and align with them on priorities and the design of the solutions

Your Profile

• Experience managing a portfolio of products and making prioritisation decisions based on business value, customer impact, and feasibility
• Strong analytical and data-driven approach — comfortable setting OKRs, tracking product KPIs, and making decisions grounded in evidence
• Fluency in agile product operating models; experience working in multi-disciplinary teams (Product, Engineering, Design, Data)
