Overview
Virta is Europe’s fastest-growing electric vehicle charging platform, operating in 36+ countries with 600,000+ charging stations. Headquartered in Helsinki, with offices in Berlin, Stockholm, Paris and Singapore, Virta shapes the future of e-mobility with a multinational team. This is a senior product leadership role for someone who thinks in systems, communicates with structure, and translates complex commercial, technical, and regulatory realities into clean, scalable product offerings.
You will own the Public Charging strategy and roadmap, connecting charge point operators, e-mobility service providers, drivers, and our charging platform. You’ll lead disciplined discovery to identify high-impact bets that drive efficiency and utilisation for our customers’ networks, in partnership with Engineering and Design to ship reliably while allowing rapid iteration.
Responsibilities
- Own the Public Charging strategy and roadmap across CPO and eMSP, balancing operator needs, regulatory obligations, utilisation mechanisms, and scalable product architecture.
- Drive product discovery by running cycles to sharpen propositions and identify high-impact opportunities ahead of the market.
- Partner cross-functionally with other Product Managers as well as Finance, Sales, Operations, and Energy Services to define commercial models and enable adoption at scale.
- Prioritise with discipline by evaluating customer and partner requests based on strategic value, commercial viability, regulatory necessity, technical feasibility, and long-term product health.
- Communicate with structure to foster proactive stakeholder alignment and work with Product Marketing to raise awareness of the product.
- Guide delivery with engineering to drive disciplined execution while preserving flexibility to iterate when signals or regulation demand it.
- Build the rollout muscle by developing and maintaining rollout templates, enablement frameworks, and KPIs that measure adoption and inform the next cycle.
- Represent Public Charging as the strategic owner and face, connecting operators, drivers, engineering, and commercial teams around a shared direction.
What We’re Looking For
- Proven experience as a senior product leader (Head of Product, Group PM, or Principal PM) owning a B2B or B2B2C product area end to end.
- Strong commercial instincts; demonstrated pricing, packaging, and go-to-market model development alongside Sales and Finance.
- Track record of turning complex, high-variance, or regulated demand into scalable, productised offerings.
- Disciplined product discovery skills: hypothesis-driven, evidence-based, and unafraid to kill ideas that don’t earn their place on the roadmap.
- Excellent structured communication: clear writing, effective participation in decision forums, and ability to address executive and partner audiences.
- Experience working closely with engineering teams in an agile environment, balancing predictable delivery with rapid iteration.
- Excellent communication skills in English.
- Willingness to travel/work onsite on a regular basis (hybrid working).
- Residency and work authorization in Europe are required. The position may be based in Finland, Sweden, France, or Germany.
Nice to Have
- Experience in EV charging, energy, mobility, payments, or adjacent regulated B2B platform sectors.
- Familiarity with charging commercial and interoperability models (tariffs, roaming, settlements, OCPI, NAPs, AFIR, etc.).
- Experience scaling products across multiple European markets and operator ecosystems.
- Background working with white-label, multi-tenant, or integration-heavy product architectures.
Why Join Us
- Own a product area at the heart of Europe’s e-mobility transition with visible commercial impact.
- A leadership culture that values honesty over hype: realistic commitments, evidence-based decisions, and direct communication.
- Real autonomy to shape strategy, not just execute someone else’s roadmap.
- International, passionate team spread across European offices and beyond.
- Hybrid work with autonomy and flexibility.
