Your mission
Salary range £80-95k - Hybrid role, central London 2 days per week
We’re looking for an experienced, inspiring Senior Product Manager to join our small but mighty Technology team at Wonderbly and help us take our product personalisation experiences to the next level.
Reporting to VP Product, this is a unique individual contributor role that sits at the very heart of our growth strategy — to create the world’s most successful and impactful publisher of books given as gifts. You’ll be working closely with many parts of the organisation to build new and innovative personalisation experiences. Your primary stakeholders will be from our Publishing Studio, a team of three production studios who create our unique personalised content for people of all ages.
This position would suit experienced, design-led product managers as there is a lot of unique UX and UI invention to do. Equally, you will be accountable for the overarching performance and conversion rates of what we call the “middle funnel”, the product personalisation journey, so you will need to be numerate and confident in measuring the impact of your work. Finally, you’ll require a flexible and disciplined approach to your product strategy and leadership in order to balance customer and commercial KPI-driving front-end experiences while continuing to develop our book production tooling.
To make the most of this role you will need to be passionate and excited about our mission, our category, and driving growth. We don’t have all the answers as to what needs to be built. We therefore want to find someone that can remain deeply curious over the long term about the best ways to bridge the physical and digital worlds (how can AI help?) and enable users to create the most memorable, most impactful books imaginable.
Beyond the intellectual and creative challenge of developing personalisation stack we offer a range of benefits that we believe make Wonderbly a great place to work:
Clear, Senior individual contributor role. This is an IC role. You will be responsible for setting and delivering a strategy, managing roadmaps, prioritising features and getting results … but not managing people. There will be opportunities for mentoring and coaching but your primary responsibility is to the product and its performance.
Sustainable business. We’ve been through our crazy hyper growth hyper intense VC teenage years. We now run the company as a sustainable, independent business that is not reliant on external capital. We believe this provides many advantages to our employees, chiefly a rational and manageable growth strategy linked to a rational and manageable, but ambitious workload.
Multidisciplinary company. Although we’re small (75 people at present) we’re extremely multidisciplinary. We have writers, illustrators, engineers, print on demand manufacturing specialists, marketeers and many other roles in one place. And we all have to work together to make the Wonderbly machine work. We think this is a great place for curious folks.
Flexible hybrid working. Because we believe in the value of multidisciplinary collaboration we have a simple hybrid policy. We ask colleagues to work from our beautiful London studio at least two days per week in order to build relationships and connect with folks beyond their immediate projects. We also offer an additional five weeks per year fully remote to enable folks to experiment with alternative ways of working.
Generous compensation and benefits. We don’t offer FAANG salaries. But we do pay well and reward strong performance. This role offers a base salary of between £80k and £95k dependent on experience and it will come with participation in our performance bonus scheme. We also offer 28 days holiday, private health insurance for you and your family, training and development budgets and many other practical perks.
We hope the mission, the work and the context we’ve outlined here excites you. If it does, we’d love to hear from you.
