Job description

Speak Life are pioneer missionaries to a post-Christendom, digital age. Our style is bold, imaginative and disruptive and our content seeks to be doctrinally rich, relentlessly Christ-centred, grace-filled, digitally savvy and culturally aware.

Over the last few years we have been honing our strategy to share Christ – beginning with the “Fast & Wide” of YouTube and other social media and drawing people into a more thoughtful digital space we call the “Slow & Deep”.This is where our unique online evangelistic course 321 sits.Product management is one of the key reasons why 321 has now reached more than 47,000 online users and we are now searching for a Product Manager who will take on 321 and our new online evangelistic Bible overview course which we are trialling this autumn.It’s a very exciting time and we are hopeful that, by the grace of God, hundreds of thousands will be reached by these courses.

The Product Manager’s primary mission is to develop online products for the Slow & Deep in line with Speak Life strategy.This means that the Product Manager’s tasks include:

• Strategic planning: crafting a comprehensive product roadmap that aligns with Speak Life’s goals and market demand.
• Market research: conducting market research to identify user needs, market trends, and potential challenges.
• Cross-functional leadership: project-managing small cross-functional teams, including writers, content producers, and marketers, to ensure cohesive product development and execution.
• Product vision: working with the CEO in defining the product vision and ensuring that each aspect of the product supports this vision.
• Lifecycle management: overseeing the entire product life cycle, from concept through development, launch, product enhancements and eventual retirement.

Product management is a relatively new discipline at Speak Life, and we believe it is vital to our ministry. This is an exciting opportunity for the right person. If you would like to learn more, we’d love to hear from you!
