Full Job Description

📋 Description

• As Product Lead, you'll own the strategy and day-to-day development of CEA's Opportunities Board, a free, curated board of high-impact opportunities, helping people find impactful work and understand how they can contribute to solving the world's most pressing problems.
• You'll combine product thinking with hands-on execution, making strategic calls about what to focus on and what to drop, then building it; shipping changes to the board, running marketing experiments, setting up tracking, and exploring new directions.
• You'll inherit a working product with existing infrastructure, growing traffic, and a body of evidence about what's working and what isn't, including user research and a detailed handover document.
• Your job will be to use that foundation to grow the board's reach and its positive impact; iterating on the product itself while testing and refining the marketing channels that will drive sustainable growth.
• You'll report at first to Jamie Harris, our Courses Project Lead, potentially shifting to a new manager once we hire a Head of Digital Product later in the year.
• Key responsibilities include product delivery and improvement, growth and marketing, and product strategy.
• You'll be responsible for iterating the board's framing, UX, and features to better serve target users and increase the rate at which they find, apply to, and land high-impact opportunities.
• You'll also be responsible for shipping improvements to the board, improving the sourcing and curation of high-impact opportunities, running experiments with clear success criteria, and building the tracking and evaluation needed to understand whether, how, and for whom the board is working.
• You'll develop and test a marketing plan to grow traffic to the board reliably and repeatedly, find the channels that work, and double down on the most cost-effective and repeatable ones.
• You'll refine the target audience, the user needs you’re addressing, and the board’s curation and feature set, continue to test and (in)validate the open strategic questions, and explore the larger opportunity in this space.
• You might be a great fit for this role if you have a product-development mindset, impact focus, strategic thinking skills, marketing instinct, comfort with delegating and managing, execution velocity, scout mindset & reasoning transparency, familiarity with the impact-focused talent landscape, and (bonus) technical execution, experience with job boards, marketplaces, or other two-sided products, or with growth, SEO, and scaling digital products.
