Senior Product Manager - AdTech

At Mindera, we are looking for a Product Manager to drive the evolution of advertising technology capabilities across Web and App platforms, helping unlock new monetisation opportunities while maintaining an excellent customer experience.

You will work on a digital product focused on expanding advertising capabilities, optimising existing placements, improving tracking and reporting, and enabling more efficient self-service experiences for business partners.

Working closely with Design, Engineering and business stakeholders, you will define the product roadmap, identify opportunities for growth and ensure the delivery of initiatives that create measurable value for the business and its customers.

We value empathy, self-organization, and a positive attitude. If you are approachable, communicate clearly, and believe that team fit is just as important as your product expertise, you'll feel right at home here.

At Mindera, we encourage the use of AI to assist with product management, analysis, documentation, and related tasks. We find that a person's product thinking, decision-making, and collaboration skills have the biggest impact on long-term successful delivery, with or without AI. Our goal during the interview process is to understand your knowledge, problem-solving abilities, and product mindset. If you need to, or plan to use AI during the interview process, please be transparent with us to avoid misunderstandings that could impact your chances of securing the role or your success at Mindera.

Expected to travel to the UK at least once or twice a month.
