What the Role Offers:

  • Own the vision, strategy, roadmap, and business outcomes for the OpenText Communications portfolio.
  • Lead, coach, and develop a global product management team with clear ownership and accountability.
  • Establish investment priorities across client innovation, cloud modernization, AI, platform capabilities, technical currency, security, and product maintenance.
  • Drive the transition to cloud through compelling migration paths, deployment flexibility, simplified operations, and reduced barriers to adoption.
  • Advance the portfolio's AI strategy, including assistance and agents that help clients design, create, migrate, govern, and manage communications.
  • Align the single-tenant and multi-tenant product strategies while maintaining clear market positioning, target use cases, and economic models for each.
  • Define measurable client and business outcomes for major roadmap investments.
  • Guide product packaging, pricing, licensing, and monetization in partnership with finance, pricing, and go-to-market teams.
  • Build strong relationships with strategic clients, advisory boards, industry analysts, partners, and field teams.
  • Represent the portfolio in executive reviews, client engagements, analyst briefings, roadmap presentations, and major industry events.
  • Partner with Development leadership to balance innovation, client commitments, architectural modernization, quality, scalability, and operational readiness.
  • Strengthen integrations with enterprise ecosystems such as SAP, Salesforce, Guidewire, messaging, journey, content, and digital experience applications.
  • Create clear positioning against major competitors and translate market insight into differentiated product investments.
  • Lead portfolio planning, release governance, client commitment management, and cross-functional execution.
  • Develop business cases and recommendations for investment, consolidation, modernization, or retirement of portfolio capabilities.

What You Need to Succeed:

  • 10+ years of product management experience in enterprise software, including significant leadership responsibility.
  • Experience leading product managers and complex global product portfolios.
  • Demonstrated success defining product strategy and translating it into funded roadmaps and measurable business results.
  • Strong understanding of enterprise SaaS, private cloud, off-cloud software, platform architecture, APIs, integrations, and security.
  • Experience with customer communications management, content management, digital experience, workflow, messaging, or related enterprise applications strongly preferred.
  • Proven ability to lead cloud migration and portfolio modernization strategies.
  • Strong business and financial acumen, including pricing, packaging, market segmentation, investment prioritization, and growth planning.
  • Ability to engage credibly with senior clients, analysts, partners, sales leaders, architects, and development executives.
  • Understanding of generative AI, predictive AI, agentic AI, and the governance considerations for enterprise AI.
  • Excellent written, presentation, and executive communication skills.
