Job Description
At Bookassist, we're proud to offer innovative products that meet the requirements of our clients. To help us continue to grow our offerings, we're searching for a dynamic VP of Product who is skilled in both business acumen and leadership. This person will be a multidisciplinary team player with a strong action bias. The role requires a strategic thinker with a proven ability to evolve product strategy and drive growth from conception through execution while scaling and leading high-performing product teams.
The role is a remote working position, with access to co-working offices. You would ideally be based within one of Bookassist's core markets: Ireland, Spain, Italy, Czech Republic or Austria. Occasional travel may be required to meet with team members in other locations.
Job Responsibilities
Serve as a full member of the Executive Team, contributing to company-wide strategic planning, commercial decision-making, and organisational priorities beyond the product function.
Act as a senior product voice in strategic client relationships, engaging directly with key accounts to surface needs, validate direction, and reinforce confidence in Bookassist's product roadmap.
Contribute to multi-year product vision and company strategy, ensuring product investment decisions are aligned to commercial goals, client outcomes, and Bookassist's position within the Vertus Group.
Own all elements of the product development lifecycle, from market discovery, client engagement and competitive analysis to requirements development, executable roadmaps, launch, and migration. Ensure all projects are grounded in deep customer insights and market needs.
Lead the strategic definition and execution of AI integration within Bookassist's product suite, ensuring AI capabilities are embedded thoughtfully and create measurable value for clients.
Lead the end-to-end marketing strategy across the full product portfolio, guiding the team in shaping market narratives, defining value propositions, and delivering messaging that resonates with target audiences. Set portfolio-wide pricing models and positioning strategies to maximise market penetration and accelerate revenue growth.
Build and mentor the Product team as the company scales while maintaining core product management processes, frameworks, and best practices.
Partner directly with Sales and Client Success teams to accelerate revenue growth through strategic sales enablement. Act as a product evangelist and subject matter expert to support high-value sales cycles, drive pipeline conversion, and identify strategic partnership opportunities that expand market reach and revenue potential.
Establish and own product KPIs and revenue levers. You will be responsible for defining the tools and metrics necessary to measure product success from the ground up, using both qualitative and quantitative data to inform your decisions and demonstrate business impact.
Create robust, clean, and well-structured documentation for all products and processes. You will be responsible for ensuring that all critical information is easily accessible, up-to-date, and organised for both technical and non-technical teams.
Work in collaboration with a variety of internal and external stakeholders, including professional services, partners, and customer success teams. You are a collaborator by nature, able to build consensus and influence cross-functional teams without direct authority.
