(Fulltime / 38 hours per week)  

Are you looking for a challenge where you can truly impact the future of a fast-growing company? As (Senior) Product Manager - MarTech Foundation you will own the vision, strategy, and product roadmap for the marketing technology stack that supports our customer experience.  

Your mission is to deliver a robust technical foundation and operational efficiency through best-in-class content and product information management. In this role, you add value by enabling internal users through integrated services, tools, and technology, following MACH architectural principles.  

This is your daily action

Key initiatives within your scope of responsibility include assessing, optimizing, and making our marketing tech stack fit for growth. You translate marketing needs into scalable, forward-looking tech solutions. Your focus will be on: 

• Ongoing improvements of Content Management and Digital Asset Management systems to streamline operational workflows
• The integration and adoption of Product Experience Management (PXM) and working closely together with the teams responsible for Product Information Management (PIM)
• Ensuring compliancy and data integrity across all content and product platforms
• Building the right product, where your technical counterpart (Technical Product Owner) is responsible for building the product right

You will independently lead and drive these initiatives, ensuring that business goals are met while delivering optimal performance. Your ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams and navigate complex stakeholder demands is key. Success in this role hinges on balancing technical know-how with a strong commercial focus. You will work within an agile environment ensuring that the necessary tools and technology are in place to support Action’s strategic objectives.  

Meet your team

This is you

As (Senior) Product Manager, your strength lies in effective communication and collaboration with cross-functional teams, where you naturally involve stakeholders.

In addition:
