About the Role

Lead the Engagement tribe at HelloFresh, focusing on deepening customer relationships and driving growth through habit formation, loyalty, and referrals. This highly visible role involves owning the multi-year strategy for AI-enabled products and setting new standards for product team operations.

Responsibilities

  • Own the product vision, strategy, and roadmap across daily discovery and cooking experience, loyalty, referrals, and viral growth mechanics.
  • Lead, coach, and grow a team of ~4 Directors and Associate Directors and their respective squads.
  • Manage a hybrid operating environment, guiding traditional squads and directing a specialized AI-focused 'startup' squad.
  • Set the prioritization framework balancing near-term business milestones with long-term strategic bets.
  • Own the tribe's key results across daily active users, habit formation, LTV, retention, and referral-driven acquisition.
  • Build the metric framework connecting customer behaviors to commercial outcomes.
  • Partner with engineering and design leadership as a peer, jointly owning product development and team delivery.
  • Collaborate with marketing and CRM on program communications, reward economics, and commercial strategy.
  • Own external vendor relationships, evaluating partnerships and deciding on build versus buy strategies.
  • Act as a strategic sparring partner for senior and C-level leadership, communicating direction, defending tradeoffs, and owning results.
  • Set the tribe's working tone: fast, iterative, and experiment-first, emphasizing rapid learning over lengthy planning.

Requirements

  • Track record of building B2C products at scale and managing/developing product managers.
  • Experience leading a scaled organization of product managers and cross-functional teams.
  • Experience in food or a similar category with strong personal customer connection.
  • Customer-obsessed product taste and judgment, starting from customer behavior.
  • Bias toward iterative delivery, quick decisions, and short timelines.
  • Executive presence, comfortable presenting to C-level stakeholders and defending strategic tradeoffs.
  • Experience working with marketing and CRM counterparts.
  • Fluency in modern AI capabilities, including leveraging AI for team workflows and customer experience integration.
  • Experience with loyalty, rewards, referrals, or engagement programs is a strong plus.
