Lead the next generation of AI-enabled workflow products

We're supporting a European organisation investing heavily in AI to transform complex operational processes. They are looking for an experienced Product Manager to lead a portfolio of AI-driven products that combine intelligent automation, human expertise, and emerging agentic AI capabilities.

This is not a feature-owner position. You'll own a complete product domain, working closely with users, engineers, and business stakeholders to define strategy, prioritise investments, and deliver measurable outcomes.

What You'll Be Doing

• Own the product vision, roadmap, and delivery for AI-powered workflow products.
• Work closely with engineering teams and AI specialists to bring new capabilities into production.
• Partner with business stakeholders and end users to understand needs and identify opportunities.
• Define product priorities based on customer value, business impact, and technical feasibility.
• Support large-scale adoption initiatives alongside change management teams.
• Drive AI-enabled efficiency improvements while laying foundations for more autonomous agent-driven processes.
• Oversee product delivery, external partners, and budget considerations.

What We’re Looking For

• Extensive Product Management experience with ownership of successful products.
• Experience working on AI-powered products or building meaningful AI solutions.
• Strong product intuition and an excellent understanding of user needs.
• Ability to influence senior stakeholders and navigate complex environments.
• Comfortable working in a transformation programme where processes and structures are still evolving.
• Fluent English required. Dutch is beneficial but not essential.

What Makes This Opportunity Interesting?

• Work on cutting-edge agentic AI initiatives rather than traditional software products.
• High degree of ownership and autonomy.
• Direct access to end users and decision-makers.
• Opportunity to influence how AI is adopted at scale across a large operational environment.
• Strong emphasis on product thinking, customer understanding, and measurable outcomes.

This role is particularly suitable for senior Product Managers who enjoy operating at the intersection of AI, business transformation, and real-world user impact.
