What the job involves

As our Senior Product Manager, you will own the product space, driving impact across product strategy, product operations, and culinary workstreams. You will lead a talented, dedicated team and serve as the strategic engine behind what makes our boxes brilliant for Irish customers
- This is not a technology product role. You will work across the full value chain - from ingredient sourcing and culinary development through to menu strategy, editorial execution, and customer experience - making decisions that directly impact what lands on our customers' doorsteps every week. You will need the ability to operate at pace, cut through complexity, and bring teams and stakeholders with you
- Strategic business planning:Reviewing product KPIs and guiding the team to improve the product offering - balancing short-term operations with long-term strategic direction, and owning the product investment calendar to increase retention while optimising for revenue and costs
- Stakeholder Management:Collaborating and building strong relationships with Operations, Marketing, and international teams - being the voice of the physical product for HelloFresh Ireland, advising on coherent processes between functions, and ensuring a coordinated approach to product initiatives across local and global stakeholders
- Process optimisation:Identifying opportunities to streamline, automate, and improve how we work - across teams and with key partners - and aligning operational improvements with the strategic direction
- Analytical decision making:Working with the team to ensure access to the relevant information, analyses, and insights needed to make informed product development decisions and translate the product vision into action
- Business case development:Developing business cases around physical product improvements and product-related processes (e.g. changes in product offering, tooling, and automations), and making data-led recommendations to Ireland and global teams
- People management:Leading, developing and inspiring teams spanning Culinary, Physical Product Strategy, and Product Operations - setting clear strategic direction, cultivating a high-performing culture, and supporting each team member's growth across different career stages
- The chance to have a serious impact on one of the fastest-growing technology companies in Europe in an exciting growth phase
- Direct, high impact on our Operations setup from day one
Application process
- Next steps: Your application will be reviewed and if successful, a member of the Talent Acquisition Team will be in touch within 2 weeks
Our take
The food space has seen significant disruption in the last few years, whether it's the rapid expansion of takeaway delivery, online groceries or meal boxes. Consumer tastes are changing and there has been lots of innovation to try and get quality food in front of people more easily. HelloFresh is one of the drivers of that trend.
On the back of a boom in subscriptions during the pandemic, HelloFresh secured its place in the new food market. However, the cost-of-living crisis has meant that the company and its peers have faced dwindling subscriptions, resulting in layoffs and a need to refocus towards a more sustainable future for the business.
That said, HelloFresh still benefits from being a leader in the sector and from its B Corporation status - properties that mean it remains a top option for consumers who want to try meal kits. Only time will tell if the company can sustain its success moving forwards, at a time when its product, however enticing, is becoming less affordable for the general public.
