This role will lead Product Managers responsible for Lead Acquisition & Partnerships and Service & Retention, ensuring that these experiences operate as a connected product ecosystem rather than independent capabilities.

- Establish a connected roadmap across the client lifecycle that aligns product investments with company growth and retention objectives.
- Identify opportunities to improve the movement of clients between digital, partner, and agent-assisted experiences.
- Balance investments across new growth capabilities, client experience improvements, operational efficiency, and platform scalability.
- Establish clear priorities and outcomes across multiple product teams.
Lead Acquisition & Partnerships

End-to-End Client Lifecycle
- Connect acquisition and post-bind experiences to create a consistent client journey across the insurance lifecycle.
- Ensure client and policy data captured during acquisition can support downstream service, personalization, renewal, and retention experiences.
- Identify friction, handoff failures, and experience gaps across organizational boundaries.
- Establish shared lifecycle KPIs that encourage teams to optimize overall client value rather than individual transactions.
- Lead, coach, and develop Product Managers across assigned domains.
- Establish clear expectations for product strategy, discovery, roadmapping, requirements, delivery, and measurement.
- Build strong product management practices and reinforce outcome-based product development.
- Provide hands-on coaching for complex initiatives, stakeholder challenges, and prioritization decisions.
- Support talent development, career planning, performance management, and hiring as the organization grows.
Cross-Functional Leadership
- Serve as the primary Product leader connecting acquisition and client lifecycle initiatives across business functions.
- Partner closely with Engineering and UX leadership to align product strategy with technology and experience strategy.
- Build strong relationships with Sales, Marketing, Partnerships, Service, Operations, Carrier Relations, and Data.
- Facilitate decisions where priorities or requirements span multiple business areas.
- Communicate strategy, roadmap, performance, risks, and investment needs to senior leadership.
Data & Performance Management
- Establish a measurement framework across the client lifecycle.
- Monitor KPIs including lead quality, quote starts, conversion, acquisition cost, digital adoption, service utilization, renewal, retention, cross-sell, and client lifetime value.
- Use analytics, experimentation, and client insights to inform investment decisions.
- Hold product teams accountable for measurable business and client outcomes rather than feature delivery alone.
