• Early joiner, went through raising > €30M, led product and helped guide and grow an awesome team of PM's as Head of Product.
• Previously ran product management for consumer products (demand/students), mobile, data products, growth and analytics.
• Lucky to work with a talented design, engineering and data science team that actually build what we (generally) convince them to be important.
• Used to do many things before HoP:
• 2016 - Lead Product Manager - PM for consumer products (students/demand), working around search, stock pages, communications, chat bots, payment integrations, checkout, localisation and SEO. PM for mobile, working on launching our mobile app for students (iOS). PM for data products, working with data engineering and data science, building models, algorithms and the first data infrastructure. PM for growth, working on experimentation and AB testing. PM for analytics working on integrating data tools into consumer products and democratizing data access. Having fun with 35 engineers, data scientists, designers and researchers.
• 2015 - Head of Growth - We had to find new growth opportunities within the marketing team. This led to the first implementation of AB testing tools, creation of the ambassadorship program (150 ambassadors across 6 countries), v1 recommendation engine on top of our CRM (first data product) among many other experiments. Also managed a really cool team of data scientists & marketing people.
• 2014 - Growth Lead - I was looking to accelerate acquisition, activation and retention, create trust in the marketplace and build a strong global brand. So we buckled up, grew the team to 25 awesome people and managed $X Mil. budgets to beat the targets.
