What the job involves
- The Product Commercialization Manager supports the execution of Nutrafol's product innovation pipeline. This role helps turn product strategy into category-leading beauty/ topical products in the market - one of the company's highest-priority growth bets - all delivered on time, on budget, and at the quality bar our customers expect
- Reporting to the Sr. Product Commercialization Manager this role is the day-to-day project owner for Topicals Innovation, partnering across Marketing, R&D, Creative, RA/QA, Clinical, Supply Chain, Operations, Finance, Sales, and external manufacturing partners to bring structure, pace, and clarity to a fast-moving roadmap
- As our topicals ambitions grow, you may also be asked to take on additional product development projects. This role is built for someone who wants their scope to expand alongside a growing business
- You will also help maintain and improve the systems, processes, and tools that support our product development engine, using project management platforms, AI-enabled tools, and automation to support speed, transparency, and efficiency
- If you're energized by turning plans into flawless execution and you want real ownership of a high-visibility project rather than a slice of many, this role offers that runway, with a clear path to take on more as you grow
- Own the timeline and delivery of the topicals innovation program and, as capacity allows, additional product development projects, helping ensure each initiative meets the defined scope, quality, timeline, and budget requirements
- Build and maintain project plans, critical paths, and milestone schedules from concept through commercialization for topicals initiatives
- Own stage-gate execution for topicals projects by coordinating kickoff, milestone, risk, and post-mortem reviews, and tracking decisions, owners, and next steps
- Identify and flag risks, dependencies, and blockers on topicals timelines to leadership before they impact in-market dates
- Track resourcing across teams supporting topicals innovation to inform prioritization
- Help maintain capacity views that flag bottlenecks specific to the topicals roadmap and support trade-off conversations with the Sr. Manager
- Support translation of the topicals strategic roadmap into a phased, resourced execution plan
- Track and communicate topicals project progress with clear, timely updates for the project team and cross-functional stakeholders
- Own the cadence of topicals status updates, readouts, and launch readiness reports
- Maintain a single source of truth for topicals project status, decisions, risks, and changes
- Use project management tools and platforms (e.g., Asana, Smartsheet, Monday, Wrike, Airtable, Jira) to run topicals projects, consistent with standards set for the function
- Leverage AI-enabled tools and automation to support status reporting, risk detection, document generation, meeting summarization, and resource forecasting
- Contribute to dashboards and reporting that turn topicals project data into actionable insight on cycle time, on-time delivery, scope changes, and resource utilization
- Apply project management standards, templates, RACI models, and stage-gate playbooks established for the broader product development function
- Serve as the day-to-day operational partner for Topicals Innovation to Product Development & Marketing
- Partner with R&D, Creative, Regulatory, Clinical, Supply Chain, Operations, Finance, Sales, and external vendors/co-manufacturers to align topicals timelines and deliverables
- Support a culture of accountability, clarity, and forward momentum on the topicals project team
Our take
Nutrafol develops and sells natural, drug-free oral supplements, serums, and treatment plans to support hair growth in men and women. The company, which has been around since 2014 and is endorsed by a number of medical professionals, is a leader in the natural hair growth supplement niche.
It’s easy to see why Nutrafol’s products would prove popular. Hair loss and thinning affects around 80% of men, and around half of women at some part of their lives. For many, the greatest impact is on self confidence, and inevitably mental wellbeing. The fact then, that so many mainstream hair loss treatments have side effects that also impair mental health, is far from ideal.
Existing investor Unilever acquired a majority stake in the company in 2022, which has helped vastly extend its reach across the globe. With the health & wellness supplements industry only becoming more accepted in the mainstream, and with Unilever’s backing, the company is now setting its sights on international growth.
