The role requires close collaboration with the senior leadership team, sales, marketing, research and development, quality assurance and manufacturing to ensure effective delivery and support of products, customer satisfaction and that sales targets are met.
The Product Management Department is responsible for the L&T product portfolio. From cradle to grave it manages the ideas for new products through to analysis of product performance and recommendations for changes based on medical curriculum and clinical needs. New product development is at the heart of the business, and it all starts and finishes with this team and leads to improved patient outcomes.
**MAIN ACCOUNTABILITIES**

You'll lead a team of product managers and work closely with key opinion leaders and stakeholders across the globe to ensure our products are included in curriculums and meet the needs of our customers.
You'll gather market data to support new product ideas, act as the voice of the customer, and use your expertise to evaluate customers' needs and include appropriate technology in our product range. With your finger on the pulse of the market, you'll draw insights from sales trends, competitor analyses, and customer feedback to develop compelling value propositions and ensure our products are positioned for success.
You'll create, develop, and maintain up-to-date training materials, provide product support to sales teams and customers, and develop high-impact sales tools like white papers, presentations, and case studies. You'll attend industry functions and conferences and identify potential new products or partners for distribution within our sales teams.
As a key player in our product development meetings, you'll drive strategic planning from "blue sky meetings" to grounded research and implementation across the company. Your analysis and reporting skills will help us make informed decisions about the future of our product portfolio.
Join us as a Product Manager and make a meaningful impact on the growth and success of our company.
