About the role

Illumia is seeking a Director of Product Management for its Higher Education portfolio. You will lead one or more empowered product teams (Product Manager, Product Designer, Tech Lead) and drive discovery, roadmaps, and business outcomes. Youll hire and coach PMs, set discovery standards, and partner with executives to align portfolio strategy. This role emphasizes outcomes for campuses, not feature delivery, with a focus on cross-functional collaboration and data-driven decision making.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
