Our Mission
We're not your average benefits platform; we're the unordinary force that uplifts people's lives. Our technology is the link that connects the entire benefits ecosystem, creating better outcomes for employers, employees, brokers, and providers.
Our mission is clear: we're here to create a world where everything operates at its very best, ensuring that every employee receives the support they need to live life to the fullest, both at work and beyond.
Your Mission
As a Product Manager at Ben, you will challenge the complexity in the employee benefit domain and constantly deliver value (benefit!) to our users by solving some of our most complex customer-facing problems!
We’re looking for self-starters who are seeking a fast-paced environment where they can make a difference. Our team is small, which means high autonomy, ownership, and responsibility. We love what we do, have fun and, while we ship on time, take life-work balance seriously.
Things you will be working on…
Own Product discovery within areas of the Ben business, working closely with the Product Lead and other senior stakeholders to understand problems
Collaborating with key business stakeholders to help drive the product strategy and roadmap
End-to-End ownership of your dedicated product area, from idea creation to discovery to development to go-live.
Ensuring the voice of the customer is heard throughout the product development process, from speaking with our Customer Support, Sales, & Success teams, to interviewing customers
Maintaining the product backlog and running key product activities such as backlog refinement, prioritisation, grooming, developing user stories, etc.
Working closely with Marketing, Customer Success & Support to ensure feature releases are successful, whilst measuring the impact the feature has post release.
Help us solve complex business problems by breaking it down to smaller pieces, finding truth & insights by going straight to the source and developing highly user-friendly products
You will love this role if you have…
A proven track record of delivering ambitious, complex products with full ownership that really hit the mark
You are a strategic thinker who combines commercial pragmatism and experience navigating senior stakeholders to deliver at pace
An entrepreneurial mindset - you are always looking for new product ideas to test and validate
Superb prioritisation and communication skills
Above all else, you LOVE solving problems (and solving them, of course!)
You will not love this role if you…
Aren’t comfortable working in a fast paced environment
Are not ready to own your own results and be held accountable
If you like maintaining the status-quo and aren’t willing to think outside the box
If you like a lot of structure and processes, we are a start-up and are still working things out and we don’t always know what’s next
Are not comfortable with ambiguity, we will give you guidance but sometimes you have to work things out
Wait for others to step up, or to be told what to do. We are a high-performance and high-reward work place and are looking for people who are proactive
