Travel Occasional UK & European travel for team and customer sessions Start As soon as available Reports to Director / Founder (EMS) The opportunity EMS is our own product — a professional services automation (PSA) platform built for consulting firms. It’s designed around the things a consulting-firm buyer judges first: margin you can trust under multi-currency, multi-company by design for holding groups, an AI assistant that fills the timesheets so people don’t have to, and a mobile-first build. EMS is now feature-complete and in user acceptance testing. The job is to take it from a built product to a product the market pays for. We’re looking for a full-time Product Lead to take EMS from a feature-complete UAT build to a market-ready, paying-customer product within six months. This is a six-month fixed-term role that can convert to a permanent Product Lead position based on product success. This is a specific flavour of product role — sometimes called a Founding PM or a 0-to-1 product operator. You’ll own three phases end to end, and the outcome of each. The Product Manager half A classic Product Manager owns the roadmap — discovery, specs and sequencing. You’ll own all of it for EMS, and run the testing phase that turns a built product into a trusted one. The Product Marketing half A Product Marketing Manager owns positioning, messaging and pricing. You’ll own that too — through to the sales collateral, demo and pricing page that win the first customers. You will be the only PM on EMS — no analyst, no PMM, no QA lead to lean on. You’ll define the pilot, write the spec, set the price and build the demo. This is not the role if you’re a pure QA or Test Manager (too narrow, and it won’t drive GTM), a Product Marketing Manager (too narrow on the other side — you won’t own roadmap or quality), or a generalist startup advisor (we need someone executing, not only advising). What you’ll be doing Phase 1 - Test: own product quality Define the UAT plan: scope, acceptance criteria and exit gates (you don’t run every test yourself).



Recruit and manage a small pilot cohort of existing customers and friendlies. Triage feedback into a prioritised backlog — deciding what blocks launch and what ships post-GA. Coordinate with engineering on bug severity, regression risk and release cadence. Phase 2 - Evolve: own the roadmap Translate UAT signal and commercial intent into a 3 / 6 / 12-month roadmap. Write specs, run discovery interviews, and validate before anything gets built. Sequence the work so each release is independently shippable — and sellable. Phase 3 - Launch: own the go-to-market Define the ICP, positioning, messaging and pricing model. Produce the sales collateral, demo script, onboarding flow and pricing page. Build the first-customer playbook — from pilot to paid conversion. Define the metrics that distinguish “we have product–market fit” from “not yet.” Scope & deliverables - each phase ships one concrete outcome Phase 1 deliverable — a UAT exit report giving a clear go / no-go on launch readiness. Phase 2 deliverable — a validated 3 / 6 / 12-month roadmap, grounded in evidence rather than opinion. Phase 3 deliverable — a launch plan with positioning, pricing and the collateral to sell with. Outcome — the first five paying customers, converted from pilot to paid. Essential experience and skills 7+ years in B2 B Saa S product, ideally in HR-tech, workforce or professional-services tooling — so you understand the domain without a six-month ramp. You’ve personally taken at least one product from 0 → 1, not just iterated on a mature one. Comfortable being the only PM, with no analyst, PMM or QA lead to lean on. Commercial fluency: you can sit in a sales call, write a pricing model, and hold your own with a CFO.



Hands-on with the artefacts — you write the spec, the release notes and the demo deck yourself. Clear written and spoken English;

Spanish or Portuguese is a plus given our team footprint. Nice to have Experience launching a PSA, ERP-adjacent or finance / operations product. Familiarity with multi-currency, multi-entity or invoicing and billing domains. A track record of converting pilot users into paying customers. Comfort working close to engineering on release planning and quality gates. The person we’re looking for Decisive. You can call what blocks launch and what waits — and stand behind it. Methodical. You write things down, validate before building, and don’t leave loose ends. Honest about what you don’t know. “Let me check” beats a confident guess. Commercially minded. You remember that a feature nobody buys is a failed feature. Comfortable owning the whole spine. Quality, roadmap and launch — on your own. How the role will grow This is a six-month fixed-term role, but it’s built to become permanent. It carries clear, outcomes-based deliverables in each phase, and strong delivery against them can convert the role into a permanent Product Lead position as EMS scales — owning quality, roadmap and launch as the product grows beyond its first paying customers. What we offer Competitive salary, calibrated to experience at offer stage. The opportunity to convert this six-month role into a permanent Product Lead position, based on product success. Discretionary bonus linked to delivery milestones and company performance. A clearly scoped role with genuine ownership of quality, roadmap and launch — end to end. A rare 0-to-1 mandate — taking a finished product to its first paying customers. Properly remote working from Barcelona, with periodic team meet-ups across the UK, Spain and Portugal. We’re committed to building a diverse team and welcome applications from candidates of all backgrounds — if you need adjustments to the process, let us know. #J-18808-Ljbffr
