Come join Thomson Reuters’ Accounting & Tax Practice group as a Senior Product Manager for Onvio, Thomson Reuters’ newest global platform serving public accounting & tax professionals around the world.

The business will measure success in this role by the candidate’s ability to deliver ongoing, in-depth, and insightful customer research and their ability to turn those insights into consistently compelling product releases.

About the Role

As a Senior Product Manager, you will:

• Learn Your Market – immerse yourself in the day-to-day workflows of our target customers and their needs, regularly interacting with them, scheduling observational workshops, etc. and become the person primarily responsible for representing the needs and perspective of that customer market, internally (in this case, advisory professionals).
• Own the Roadmap – assume primary ownership of the Onvio Advisory product roadmap, acting as “designated decider” regarding trade-offs, delays, etc. on a release-by-release basis.
• Direct Go-to-Market Activities – act as primary liaison with Outbound Marketing to design and execute on go-to-market collateral and programs.
• Assist Strategic & Financial Planning – work with leadership to set a budget and projected amounts for the product and communicate progress to those milestones regularly.
• Be a Team Player – support customer-facing teams on an as-needed basis to assist in new sales and retention activities while always looking for ways to support those channels more broadly (and more proactively) rather than only supporting individual customers.
• Be Curious & Innovative – continuously update yourself with next-generation technology, development tools, and contribute to process development practices
• Be an Agile Person – with a strong sense of urgency and a desire to work in a fast-paced dynamic environment to deliver solutions against strict timelines
• Be an Effective Communicator – articulate complex technical issues, and share ideas, participate in peer reviews, and exhibit strong listening skills
