Good-Loop is a purpose-powered advertising platform, on a mission to connect brands, people and good causes globally. We build products that make it easy and profitable for brands to do good at scale and our advertising technology is used by some of the biggest brands in the world, from Nike and Adidas to L’Oreal, Pepsi, Honda and McDonalds.

Here’s an insight into life at Good-Loop (and most importantly, our excellent benefits and perks).

ABOUT THE ROLE

Are you passionate about shaping the future of digital advertising technology? Do you thrive in a fast-paced environment where innovation and creativity are valued?

We are looking for a dynamic and experienced Head of Product to lead our product team, currently composed of a Product Designer, Research Associate and QA Analyst. As the Head of Product, you will be responsible for managing the team, driving the product strategy and roadmap, and overseeing the development and delivery of cutting-edge advertising technology solutions.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Develop and execute the product vision and strategy for our AdTech offerings, especially across our growing suite of measurement offerings, and aligning with the company's overall goals and objectives.
Work closely with our Research Associate to guide the product roadmap and take on leadership of the product development function once the interim CTO returns to his NED role.
Work with the Software Development Manager in sprints to deliver the technical elements of the product roadmap.
Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams including engineering, design, sales, and marketing to define product requirements and priorities.
Drive the product development process from ideation to launch, ensuring timely delivery of high-quality solutions that meet customer needs and market demands.
Conduct market research and competitive analysis to identify new opportunities and stay ahead of industry trends.
Establish and maintain strong relationships with key stakeholders, including clients, partners, and industry experts, contributing to panels and IAB Council.
Monitor product performance and KPIs, analyse data to gain insights, and make data-driven decisions to optimise product features and functionality.
Champion a culture of innovation, collaboration, and continuous improvement within the product organisation.
Build and communicate the Product Strategy.

REQUIREMENTS

Technical experience in AdTech and a record of previous collaboration with engineering teams in a dynamic environment.
Experience in SSP, DSP, Network, and Agency Tech would be desirable.

Strong track-record of cross functional stakeholder management; comfortable and experienced pulling in departments and aligning product goals to business objectives.

If you are a strategic thinker with a passion for AdTech and a track record of delivering results, we want to hear from you.

Research shows that while men apply for jobs when they meet an average of 60% of the criteria, women and other marginalised groups tend to only apply when they tick every box. So if you think you have what it takes, but don’t necessarily meet every single requirement on the list above, please still get in touch. We’d love to have a chat and hear about what else you know.

We give a shit about leaving the world a little bit better than we found it, we’re a passionate and kind team and we’re constantly asking what else we can do to push our industry, and our work, to be better.

We pride ourselves on a relaxed but productive working environment enabling both commercial success and personal development. No matter what stage of your career you're at - from paid internships and graduate opportunities right through to senior posts - we'll support you with the training and development you need to feel empowered to do your best work.

If you’re applying for a tech role, we’d love to see a short portfolio of your best work. This could be a link to your github profile with a paragraph of commentary, or you could send some code samples. Show us projects you are passionate about, regardless of whether they are relevant to this job. Hobby projects preferred!

We strive to make Good-Loop a place where everyone can do their best work, by bringing together diversity of thought, perspectives, and experience, to create an inclusive environment where our people can be their best selves.
