About the role

Accruent is seeking a Director of Product Management to shape and execute product strategy for the Asset Solutions Group’s Maintenance Management and Mobile Workforce Management portfolios. Reporting to the General Manager, the role partners with the Chief Product & Technology Officer, Engineering, Marketing, Sales, and Customer Success to translate business priorities into product direction, roadmap decisions, and measurable customer and commercial outcomes. Over time the scope may expand to additional Asset Solutions offerings such as Engineering Document Management Solutions.

Responsibilities

  • Product Strategy & Portfolio Leadership: Partner with the General Manager to define and evolve strategy for the Maintenance and Field product portfolios, translating business priorities into clear product direction, investment recommendations, and roadmap decisions grounded in customer needs, market dynamics, and competitive differentiation.
  • Roadmap & Investment Management: Lead development and execution of portfolio roadmaps that balance innovation, modernization, technical debt, customer commitments, and commercial outcomes; establish decision frameworks and focus resources on highest‑value opportunities.
  • Product Leadership & Team Development: Lead, coach, and develop a global team of Product Managers, fostering a high‑performance culture centered on customer focus, accountability, collaboration, strong product judgment, and data‑driven decision making.
  • Customer & Market Insight: Build deep understanding of customer workflows, business challenges, buying behavior, and industry trends; use direct engagement, partner feedback, win/loss analysis, market research, competitive intelligence, and product data to inform strategy and investments.
  • Cross‑Functional Leadership: Partner closely with the CPO, Engineering, Marketing, Sales, Customer Success, Services, and Support to align product priorities, technical investments, delivery plans, and go‑to‑market execution.
  • Commercial Outcomes & Go‑to‑Market Partnership: Ensure product strategy drives measurable improvements in customer value, adoption, retention, growth, and expansion; collaborate on market positioning, packaging, product launches, migration strategies, and customer communication.
  • Product Lifecycle Management: Oversee the full lifecycle—from strategic planning through delivery, adoption, optimization, modernization, and end‑of‑life decisions—balancing short‑term customer needs with long‑term portfolio objectives.
  • Executive Communication: Present product direction, investment recommendations, roadmap decisions, portfolio performance, and key trade‑offs to executive leadership in a clear, concise, business‑focused manner.

Success Metrics

  • Product direction and execution are clearly aligned with Asset Solutions Group business priorities.
  • Roadmaps are driven by measurable customer and business outcomes rather than feature volume, with explicit priorities and trade‑offs.
  • Product decisions lead to stronger adoption, retention, customer value, and growth.
  • Product Managers operate with clear accountability, strong customer engagement, commercial awareness, and disciplined execution.
  • Cross‑functional teams (Engineering, Marketing, Sales, Customer Success, Services, Support) are aligned around common priorities and shared outcomes.
  • Executive leadership trusts Product Management for sound judgment, evidence‑based recommendations, and reliable execution.

Requirements

  • 10+ years of product management experience in B2B SaaS or enterprise software, including 5+ years leading Product Managers and building product teams.
  • Strategic thinking ability to connect customer needs, market dynamics, technology investments, and business goals into clear product direction and actionable roadmaps.
  • Strong commercial acumen with deep understanding of SaaS business models and the drivers of growth, retention, expansion, and customer value.
  • Proven track record of incorporating customer feedback, market analysis, competitive intelligence, and product data into strategic decisions.
  • Leadership and influence skills to align executive stakeholders, influence across organizational boundaries, and guide teams through complex decisions and change.
  • Execution discipline to move effectively between strategic planning and operational execution, establish robust product operating mechanisms, and drive accountability.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Business, Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field (required); MBA or equivalent advanced degree (preferred).

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience leading modernization initiatives or SaaS and cloud transformation programs.
  • Familiarity with product‑led growth, platform strategies, and multi‑product portfolio management.
  • Experience with both on‑premise and SaaS software business models, including modernization and cloud migration strategies (strong plus). Candidates with deep SaaS backgrounds without on‑premise experience will also be considered.
  • Experience operating within a Fortive‑style business system or continuous improvement environment.

Pay

Salary range: 160,000.00 – 297,600.00 (local currency).
