Head of Product - Engagement

Head of Product - Grow and Engage

Users don’t just use products , they feel them. We need a leader who ties deep consumer instincts and UX excellence directly to business outcomes and P&L performance. Someone who builds experiences that hook, retain, and grow revenue, not just look good on a deck.

What you’ll own - Impact first

1) Shape the Consumer Experience

• Define and own the consumer experience roadmap.
• Uncover friction and opportunity through user research, data, and qualitative insight.
• Align UX choices with strategic business outcomes: activation, retention, monetisation, revenue growth.

2) Translate UX into Hard KPIs

• Set clear goals and success metrics tied to growth, engagement, and revenue.
• Drive decisions with a mix of behavioural data, user studies, and instinct.
• You don’t ship features. You ship results.

3) Product + P&L Partnership

• Co-own product areas with discernible revenue impact.
• Partner with Finance, Business, Marketing, Analytics to tie product decisions into
  unit economics and profitability.

4) Lead Cross-Functional Teams

• Inspire and develop Senior PMs & UX Designers
• Break down silos between design, engineering, and GTM functions.
• Instil a test-and-learn culture that moves fast without losing focus.

5) Bring Gaming / Social-First Instinct

• Approach experience design with engagement instincts honed in social, gaming, marketplace or similar consumer ecosystems.
• Translate micro-moments into habit loops that map to business durability.
   

What we’re looking for - Non-negotiables

Consumer product pedigree

• 8+ years building consumer software at high-growth tech companies — social, gaming, marketplaces, consumer apps.
• Demonstrated success launching products that moved metrics, not just shipped UX polish.

UX sensibility + data fluency

• You judge designs by impact. You articulate why an experience works — not just what it feels like.
• You balance qualitative nuance with quantitative rigor.

Business & P&L acumen

• Comfortable owning product economics: pricing, retention curves, funnel analysis.
  You speak the language of revenue without betraying UX integrity.

Leadership & execution

• Proven track record leading teams to outcomes, not output.
• You simplify complexity and make hard trade-offs confidently.

Communication

• Clear, structured, and direct. You influence without authority and drive alignment across stakeholders.
