You will set its strategy, own its commercial performance, decide how we invest across a portfolio of products, and lead the go-to-market and lifecycle decisions that turn that investment into measurable value for schools and teachers. You will work through Product Managers and Product Owners, who own delivery within the outcomes and guardrails you set, and alongside partners in Marketing, Sales, Customer Success, Operations and Finance. You will hold real decision authority within agreed commercial, technical and regulatory guardrails, and you will be expected to use it. What you will ownStrategy and commercial ownershipSet a clear strategy for your value stream: an honest diagnosis, explicit choices about where to play and how to win, and stated non-goals. Own the commercial performance of the value stream - ARR across new business, cross-sell and expansion; Allocate finite capacity across growth, retention, optimisation, risk, platform health and future options. Balance near-term commitments against long-term advantage, and negotiate cross-product and platform dependencies to a conclusion. Make assumptions and risks explicit, record the rationale, and go back afterwards to check whether the expected value arrived. Go-to-market and value realisationDefine the target segment, proposition and positioning with your commercial partners. Build evidence-led pricing and packaging recommendations. Own adoption and commercial performance after launch, and lead the correction when the numbers do not move. Lead optimisation, consolidation, migration and retirement decisions as actively as you lead launches. Cross-functional leadershipSet clear outcomes, investment envelopes and guardrails for Senior Product Owners - and then leave them room to lead delivery. Evidence of decisions taken under commercial pressure, and of going back to see what they produced. Product discovery and how to judge the quality of evidence. Pricing and packaging. Product lifecycle work including migration and retirement. Product, scaled agile, user-centred design and product analytics training are all useful, and none of them substitutes for evidence of the capabilities above. Commercial accountability for the result, and the decision authority to act on it. Everything Tes builds ends up in the hands of teachers and schools.
