Product and Portfolio Manager Livestock
What are you going to do?
- our Cow Monitoring Platform (Nedap CowControl – Dairy Farming), or
- our Integrated Farm Solutions, where we integrate Nedap products with the solutions of our business partners.
In both cases, you help us create scalable solutions that add tangible value for dairy farmers worldwide. You work from the shared ambition of our Livestock business unit and connect colleagues from sales, R&D, support and external partners to make clear choices together.
You translate market and partner insights, as well as technological developments, into a roadmap that provides direction and clarity in a dynamic playing field. You make choices explicit, substantiate them with a solid business case and ensure buy-in from stakeholders. In this way, you help to make our solutions valuable in practice more quickly and effectively.
Your responsibilities
Your team
Within Product & Portfolio Management (PPM), you will work on the core of our product strategy and the portfolio of our solutions. PPM forms the connecting link between market, technology and business. The team consists of three streams: Cow Monitoring Platform, Integrated Farm Solutions and Business Support. Together, the Product Managers ensure that our solutions and roadmaps fit together seamlessly and reinforce each other.
You will work closely with colleagues from the broader Strategy & Business Transformation group, which also includes Business Transformation, Pricing & Revenue Management and Market Intelligence. In addition, you will have intensive contact with international colleagues and partners who are close to our end users in the focus countries, as well as with account managers, solution owners and product owners. In this way, we harness the full power of Nedap to better support our customers every day.
