This team is a key part of our transformation into a product-led organization. Therefore, we’re looking to hire an experienced product management leader to:

• Lead a team of product managers, support their development, manage performance, and create the right culture to empower them and provide them with psychological safety to fail and learn.
• Coach product managers, so they can confidently lead product teams through the discovery, development, and launch of innovative products and features that provide real value to kids.

You will be working closely with the other product teams, experiences, and tools to engage with new and existing users to power their love for the LEGO brand.

The Product Leader reports to the Head of Product within the Marketing Organization, making sure that product and portfolio strategy reflects the strategy and needs of our different audiences.
