Product Managers ensure that products are fulfilling their primary purpose to enable users to perform tasks that create value for the company. Product managers have two broad areas of responsibility:​ 

• Setting strategic vision for the product to ensure the customer and their needs are at the center; and ensuring team priorities are supporting business outcomes for customer, product, technical and enabling teams. This requires continual alignment of the product strategy and objectives with customer, product, technical, and enabling teams​ 
• Managing the product backlog, which prioritizes the work of the assigned squads, to achieve the vision and aligned strategy.​ 

To successfully manage these areas of responsibility, product managers must have a deep understanding of the product domain, related technology, and architecture.​ 

Enterprise Product Managers drive strategy and execution for a complex ecosystem of digital products that cross multiple workflows, technical platforms, and business units. 

 

YOUR TASKS AND RESPONSIBILITIES: 

 

Product Management​ 

• The product manager is accountable for the overall success of a product throughout its lifecycle, from conception to decommissioning. They identify domain needs, develop, and validate product concepts, and build a business case. They oversee the product's build and launch, including any sourced services; as well as ensure product availability, stability, and compliance needs are met. Product managers collaborate with various teams, including product development, marketing, finance, legal, manufacturing, operations, and sales, as needed, to ensure cohesive progress and success.​ 
• Product Managers drive agile best practices with the team to improve delivery, including continuous planning ahead of each development cycle (e.g. sprint planning) and working together to co-create user stories aligned with the product backlog prioritization. In addition to guiding the team product managers have duties like market opportunity identification, competitive analysis, sales enablement, or monitoring domain performance.​ 
  ​ 

Stakeholder Engagement​ 

• It is vital for the product manager to identify their key stakeholder group. Though many strong and loud opinions will be expressed, an effective product manager uses discretion to deliver their product in a way that meets the needs of users and stakeholders who will ensure value is realized for Bayer. Stakeholders should trust that the product manager not only understands their needs but will actively work to ensure their needs are met while delivering the product. ​ 
  ​ 

Product Strategy​ 

• The product manager must provide strategic leadership with full end-to-end ownership for their assigned products throughout the entire product lifecycle.
