Company Description
Meet Unit4. With over 40 years of heritage, we’re an agile, fast growing, Cloud company that is on a mission to redefine Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) for mid-market people-centric organisations.
With our innovative, self-driving, adaptive and intuitive software, our customers can spend more time on meaningful high-value work.
At the heart of what we do lies a simple yet profound purpose: Improve how people work by focusing on what truly matters. A powerful statement that enables different priorities for different people.
We’re shaping how work should feel, and we empower our people by providing them with the right tools to achieve the autonomy they need - it's what makes us unique.
Job Description
About the role
Unit4 builds software for organizations that serve others: in government, education, nonprofits, and professional services. We are investing in our next generation of products, and we are looking for an experienced product manager to take new products from first idea to customers in production.
You will own a product end to end. You will run the discovery, shape the definition, work hand in hand with design and an AI-assisted development team to build it at pace, and keep improving it once it is live. This is a role for someone who has done the full job before and wants to do it again, faster and closer to the customer than most environments allow.
What you will do
-
Own a product through its whole life, not just the launch: discovery and definition, build and launch, then the subsequent releases, improvements, and maintenance that turn a first version into one customers rely on.
-
Run discovery and research with customers and prospects to find the problem worth solving, then design, prototype, and test solutions together with them.
-
Turn insight into a sharp product definition and clear, well-prioritized requirements.
-
Prioritize ruthlessly and own the backlog, the release plan, and the quality bar for your product.
-
Partner daily with designers and an AI-assisted development team to build and ship to a high standard.
-
Co-design with customers in working sessions alongside our user researcher.
-
Design and run discovery processes that scale beyond individual customer conversations, including synthesizing insight from high-volume inputs like conference sessions, multi-customer workshops, or large research cohorts, and turning that signal into clear product direction quickly.
-
Stay accountable for whether the product gets adopted, not only whether it ships.
Qualifications
What you must bring
-
An experienced product manager. This is not your first product. You have owned products across the full development lifecycle: research and discovery, requirements and definition, design, and launch.
-
Deep domain expertise in HR, finance, or project management software, expertise with an ERP is a plus. Deep enough that you have a point of view on what customers in these spaces genuinely need that nobody has built well yet. You can name the persona, describe the pain, and explain how you know it’s prevalent, not just a problem one customer mentioned once.
-
Real comfort working directly with customers, designers, product marketing, and sales.
-
A bias to ship and a love of seeing real products in customers’ hands.
What will set you apart
-
AI-native ways of working. You have a personal repository of agents, automations, and skills you’ve built yourself. You can walk through it, explain the choices you made, and talk about how it’s changed the way you work. You bring that practice with you and raise the bar for the team.
-
Comfort with ambiguity and pace. You keep one product moving with focus rather than spreading thin.
-
A point of view on how AI is changing the products our customers will need.
Why this role matters
Our customers do work that matters, often with limited resources and high expectations. The products you create will give the people in these organizations better tools to do that work, and free them to spend more of their time on the people they serve. That is the impact behind every product you ship, and it is why this role matters.
