Job description

Do you want to shape how people buy, sell and finance property in Switzerland? Join Neho as Head of Product at our Lausanne headquarters and lead the product and design team behind our Neho and Strike platforms.

Neho is one of Switzerland's leading real estate brokerage companies, redefining the industry through innovation. We combine human expertise with powerful digital solutions to deliver a faster, more transparent, and consistently high-quality real estate experience. What truly sets us apart is our fixed-price model, offering clients a fair alternative to traditional commission-based services.

Reporting to our CTPO

you will own the company's digital product function across Neho and our mortgage advisory brand Strike Advisory. You drive the decisions on what we build and why we build it. You will lead a team of 3 Product Managers, each embedded in one of our three development teams, and 2 UX/UI Designers. This is a hands‑on leadership role: You set the direction for the next phase of Neho's growth. And you work directly alongside the team on the hardest product problems.

Your Tasks

• Own the product vision, strategy and roadmap, aligned with company goals and growth plans
• Prioritise the roadmap based on customer value and business impact, and communicate it clearly to stakeholders and the whole company
• Build a deep understanding of our customers, the market and competitors, and turn those insights into product decisions
• Own product quality and the customer and user experience across all our products
• Define product metrics and use data, experimentation and A/B testing to validate ideas, de-risk decisions and measure success
• Set the bar for product and design: define what good looks like for discovery, prioritisation, design and execution, coach the team to it, and champion a culture of outcomes over output
• Hire, develop and retain a high‑performing team – set clear goals, recognise strong work, create growth opportunities and address underperformance early and fairly
• Partner closely with Engineering on what to build and in what sequence, balancing value, effort and timing
• Work hand in hand with our commercial, operations and marketing teams so they have what they need to succeed
• Develop and launch new products that open up new revenue streams
• Champion a product culture of outcomes over output, evidence‑based decisions, and clear ownership.

What We Offer

• A true leadership role with ownership of the product vision, roadmap and team across two brands
• Direct impact on the digital experience of property sellers, buyers and mortgage clients across Switzerland
• Close collaboration with the CTPO, Engineering and our commercial leadership
• A unique career opportunity to join a fast‑growing and award‑winning scale‑up within the real estate industry
• Enjoy flat hierarchies, quick decision‑making processes, and the freedom to work autonomously and leave your mark
• Be part of an energetic, forward‑thinking team spanning our offices in Lausanne and Zurich as well as our remote engineering team in Romania
• Thrive in an entrepreneurial, innovative culture that values transparency, fairness, and strong team support
• Hybrid working model with 2 days home office per week
• Competitive benefits including 5 weeks of vacation + extra days based on tenure, fully paid maternity/paternity leave, remote work options from abroad, regular team events, and more!
