Company mission
Cleanhub's mission is to build a global platform for waste collection, and a movement empowering brands and consumers to help collect plastic before it reaches the ocean.
Role
Who you are
- A minimum of 3 years experience in product management, ideally in a startup environment working in cross-functional teams to an outcome-based roadmap
- You have launched new products or features to active users and used data and feedback to make them better
- It’s a big plus if you have experience with social media, consumer activism, community-driven products or Edtech (but not essential)
- Curiosity — you can’t wait to learn about and understand new things
- All about the problem — you’re obsessive about the problem you’re solving and the people you’re solving it for. You’re an intuitive researcher
- Prioritisation — you’re a master of saying “no” and focussing on the right things
- Predisposed to action — when you see an issue, you don’t sit on your hands, you challenge, you get things done
- Outcomes focussed — you care about solving problems (outcomes) not on looking busy (outputs)
- Communication — you can get ideas out there clearly, with the engineer, the designer or the CEO
- Relationships — you can build strong, trusting relationships, even with people who don’t work in the same way as you
- Technology — you understand what can be done now on web and mobile and other platforms and you’re excited about what’s coming next
- Design — you recognise good design when you see it — you have a sixth sense for what a good user experience looks and feels like
- Detail and quality — you ‘sweat the detail’ and do the hard work needed to make something you’ve produced feel easy and elegant
- Data with empathy — you’re excited about discovering insights in a spreadsheet but you’re quick to relate your findings back to real people
- People — you can put yourself in others’ shoes and understand things from their perspective (both with your users and with your colleagues)
What the job involves
- In this role, you will report to our VP Product and work as part of a cross-functional team
- Own the outcome - own the roadmap and strategy for your product. Continuously prioritise the opportunities that are most likely to measurably impact your roadmap outcome
- Understand user needs - help the whole team to understand what problems we need to solve and why
- Be all over the data - make intelligent decisions backed up by quantitative and qualitative insights
- Fail successfully - design experiments that allow us to learn quickly so that we focus our resources on what works
- Influence and lead - work shoulder to shoulder with your team and inspire them to build an amazing product for our customers. Communicate the vision and maximise the value you get from making everyone at CleanHub feel part of the product team
Our take
Decades of neglectful waste disposal has led to enormous quantities of plastic waste ending up in the ocean, and consumer brands are major contributors to this. Many businesses aspire to reduce their plastic imprint and contribute to the global ocean cleanup, but organizing such projects and hiring trained volunteers is expensive and logistically difficult.
Cleanhub provides a global platform for waste collection, allowing brands to pay for the company to organize a fixed amount of waste cleanup every month, without the brand having to organize volunteers or logistics. Companies can be charged at a bespoke monthly rate or for every e-Commerce sale, and Cleanhub will collect waste, allowing the brand to track and share their progress.
Cleanhub has generated great interest from various industries internationally, and their customer base includes companies such as Noughty, Yamo and Everdrop as well as giants like Würth. Recent funding will be used to scale its operations with the aim of building out a foundational part of the world's waste management infrastructure.
