The Senior Product Manager, KFC.com is accountable for the vision, strategy, and measurable outcomes of kfc.com as a critical owned digital channel. This role leads an empowered cross functional product squad to discover, deliver, and continuously improve web experiences that drive acquisition, discovery, and conversion-while reinforcing the mobile app as the primary owned ordering experience. Optimize web for its distinct role in the ecosystem - balancing direct conversion with intentional app migration where it improves lifetime value.
The successful candidate is not a requirements writer or backlog administrator. They are a product leader who brings together customer insight, data, design, and engineering to solve high leverage problems and deliver compounding impact-building solutions that are valuable, usable, feasible, and viable.
KFC.com plays a distinct role in the owned ecosystem and the Sr. Product Manager must excel at:
- Discovery & acquisition (SEO/SEM landing experiences, menu discovery, brand and product storytelling)
- Conversion and ordering (fast, frictionless ordering flows where relevant; seamless handoff to app when optimal)
- Account & loyalty access (sign in, enrollment, benefits visibility, cross channel continuity)
- Resilience & trust (reliable experiences, clear messaging during outages/issues, accessibility, performance)
- Platform alignment (identity, menu/pricing/availability, offers/loyalty, payments, analytics)
Required Qualifications
- 6-10+ years of product management experience, including ownership of customer facing web experiences at meaningful scale.
- Demonstrated success leading cross functional teams to deliver measurable outcomes (conversion, acquisition, retention, or experience quality), not just shipping features.
- Strong product judgment across discovery, delivery, and go to market, with evidence of data driven prioritization and clear trade off decisions.
- Proven ability to run discovery: translating insights into hypotheses, validating with research/experiments, and building an outcome oriented roadmap.
- Deep comfort with analytics: funnel analysis, instrumentation, experimentation, and post launch measurement.
- Ability to simplify and focus-consistently delivering high value with controlled complexity.
- Strong collaboration and communication skills; can influence stakeholders across marketing, ops, engineering, and leadership.
- Enough technical fluency to understand feasibility and trade offs (web performance, APIs, SEO implications, experimentation tooling).
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience in QSR, retail, e commerce, or other high volume consumer environments with real world operational constraints.
- Experience with SEO, site performance optimization, accessibility, and conversion rate optimization at scale.
- Familiarity with modern product management principles and operating models (empowered teams, continuous discovery).
