Product Manager

Join a fast-growing, listed company with a purpose! Fastned owns and operates a network of 300 fast charging stations across Europe, allowing electric vehicle drivers to charge their car with 100% green energy in just 15 minutes. Our goal is a European network of 1000 fast charging stations in prime locations, where all electric vehicles can charge with renewable energy from the sun and wind. We have recently been voted best charging network in the UK, France and the Netherlands. If you want to make a difference and work in an informal, international scale-up environment with future prospects, then read on!

⚡️Your role

Fastned enables EV drivers around Europe to charge their vehicles with renewable energy and leads the way in making mobility sustainable. In this role, you will create an impact by making the charging experience as frictionless and enjoyable as possible. This is a unique opportunity to refine what ‘mission control’ should look like for the Fastned rocketship.

In this role, you get full ownership of our Operations-facing products. For example: Revolt Admin, our back-office used by Network and Customer Operations teams for delivering a most reliable charge and excellent support. You will define, improve, and oversee the discovery and delivery of these products and push the envelope to launch new and innovative solutions. You will do this as a member of your scrum team, together with Product Design, Engineering, and stakeholders. In this effort you are guided by an in-depth understanding of user needs based on research and data but also heart, intuition, curiosity, play, guts, and taste. 

⚡️Your overall responsibilities include

• Drive product strategy by maintaining an aligned prioritized roadmap and backlog

• Monitor and measure product performance and feed insights back into the product development lifecycle. Be ferocious and resourceful in improving performance metrics

• Understand the needs of your users, key stakeholders as well as the business, for refining business processes and ensuring needs are adequately translated into product

• Work with your users, stakeholders, and team members on solution discovery, delivery, and the reporting of realized outcomes

• Meticulously chase and track bugs to guarantee a seamless experience for your users

• Communicate product plans and results with your team, users, and key stakeholders

• Contribute to improving the product development lifecycle & implementation of best practices

⚡️Who we are looking for

You are an entrepreneur with a builders mentality, who thrives in building and iterating products! You excel in taking ownership of the user journey, understanding user pains, and business requirements, and translating those into best-fitting solutions. You own your main product metrics, iterating the product where it makes sense. Additionally, you tick the following boxes:

• You possess a master's degree and bring analytical thinking to the job

• You have around 2-3 years of experience as a product manager on an Agile team

• You leverage data to drive strategic decisions. You have proven experience in analyzing and using data to make key product decisions.

• You have a solid understanding of how to translate business processes into products, preferably having done this before in a fast-scaling startup environment

• You think and talk about assumption validation and hypothesis testing, driving business outcomes through rapid experiments and problem-solving. And recognise some things that just need to get done, for example, related to compliance and auditing.

• You have strong experience in stakeholder collaboration, understanding their needs with the customer in mind, and transforming those into problems to solve & stories to refine with the team

• You can prioritize requests in a high-paced and Agile work environment

• As a bonus, SQL proficiency is highly desirable, or you are willing to learn it (we provide in-house SQL training)!
