MES Product Management Lead

AVEVA is creating software trusted by over 90% of leading industrial companies. We are transforming how industrial operations are managed, and Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) sit at the heart of that transformation.

What You’ll Do

• Define the long‑term vision and roadmap for AVEVA’s MES portfolio, keeping customer needs and business value at the centre of all decisions.
• Lead and mentor a team of MES Product Managers, ensuring coordinated delivery against the overall product vision.
• Partner with the broader platform team to define MES‑specific use cases and capabilities that integrate into AVEVA’s hybrid cloud ecosystem.
• Align MES strategy with the global Professional Services organisation to ensure product capabilities directly support customer implementation needs.
• Lead MES customer advisory boards, user forums, and product councils—capturing structured feedback and translating it into actionable roadmap inputs.
• Collaborate with Sales and Professional Services to align on customer‑facing events and ensure consistent product messaging.
• Define how AVEVA MES is positioned in the market, including messaging, differentiation, and competitive strategy across both standalone and hybrid deployment scenarios.
• Partner with the Business Development and Sales organisations to support go‑to‑market initiatives and key customer conversations.
• Build strong alignment across Sales, Professional Services, Pre‑Sales, and other Product leadership teams to enable seamless workflows across product boundaries.
• Serve as the single point of ownership for the MES roadmap—making and defending key product decisions with clarity and confidence.

What We’re Looking For

• 7+ years of product management or solutions management experience, with a strong track record in Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES).
• Demonstrated ability to define long‑term product strategy, multi‑release roadmaps, and platform migration journeys—particularly transitions from on‑premise or legacy environments to cloud or hybrid architectures.
• Deep knowledge of MES functional domains: production execution, scheduling, inventory management, quality management, work instruction workflows, and system integrations.
• Proven ability to translate input from Sales, Pre‑Sales, and implementation teams into concrete product decisions and roadmap priorities.
• Experience operating effectively in a matrixed, global organisation—aligning diverse stakeholders, resolving competing priorities, and driving decisions in ambiguous environments.
• Outstanding communication and presentation skills, with the ability to engage technical teams, customers, and senior leadership with equal confidence.

Benefits

• Flexible benefits fund.
• Emergency leave days, adoption leave, 28 days annual leave (plus bank holidays).
• Pension, life cover, private medical insurance, parental leave, education assistance programme.
• Benefits vary by country but our packages are similarly comprehensive.
