Company: Speechmatics
Apply for the Director, Product
Location: London
Job Description:

As Director, Product, you’ll own the strategy and roadmap for our largest and fastest growing use cases and product as a whole. You’ll translate market, customer and competitor insight into a clear product vision and orchestrate engineering, research, design, marketing and sales to land it at scale.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Owning the strategy, vision and roadmap from early discovery and definition through to development and go‑to‑market execution.
  • Leading cross‑functional teams to address key challenges while moving at pace.
  • Hiring and growing a high‑performing product management team, setting the bar for product craft and driving a culture of boundless curiosity and rigorous execution.
  • Scaling our adoption through Product‑Led Growth, deepening developer experience, self‑serve activation and expansion across our ideal customer profiles.
  • Driving our Enterprise sales with frequent interactions with key customers and prospects.
  • Championing Speechmatics externally at events, webinars or with C‑suite leaders of industry giants.
  • Partnering with the VP, Product and executive team to shape company strategy, influence investment decisions and represent product at leadership level.

Who We’re Looking For

  • Cross‑functional leader with a proven track record of aligning engineering, research, design, marketing and GTM behind a shared roadmap and shipping at pace, ideally in a tech scale‑up environment.
  • Market insight ability to roadmap—turn customer, competitor and market signals into a clear, prioritised roadmap with credibility to motivate teams.
  • Relevant domain experience in building proprietary machine learning models or deep speech experience; hands‑on PLG experience scaling a developer‑led or self‑serve product is a strong advantage. Scaling experience in mid‑stage companies is also strongly preferred.
  • Results‑driven and execution‑focused, thriving through ambiguous, rapidly evolving environments without heavy support structures.
  • Senior people leader who has built and grown product teams and can act as a credible partner to executive stakeholders, influencing at leadership level.
