Product Manager

At NZ Post we connect Aotearoa to the world and the world back to us. As international eCommerce continues to grow, we are evolving the products and services that move parcels across borders every day.

We are looking for a Product Manager early in their career who is ready to step up, take ownership, and get stuck into the work. This is a hands-on development opportunity for someone with around 1 to 2 years of product management experience who wants to build their capability in a fast moving environment while working alongside experienced product leaders.

Kōrero mō te tūranga - About the role

Due to an internal move, we are looking for a Product Manager to join our International team, based in Highbrook, East Tamaki.  You will help manage and improve the products that bring parcels into New Zealand every day, working closely with senior product managers, technology teams, commercial partners, and offshore teams.

This role sits at the centre of our international product ecosystem.  You will help drive product initiatives forward, contribute to Agile delivery with technology teams, and ensure work is clearly prioritised and moving.  It is a great opportunity to gain exposure to the full product lifecycle while helping improve customer experience and commercial performance.

In this role you will be:

• Leading meetings, workshops, and stakeholder discussions that move work forward
• Partnering with offshore teams and international partners to coordinate product improvements and changes
• Identifying opportunities to improve product performance, customer experience, and commercial outcomes

Think of this as your chance to understand the full product lifecycle while making a real difference to how New Zealanders and international customers experience NZ Post.  It's a great development role for someone wanting to grow their product management experience.

Mōu - About you

You combine this with:

• Around 1 to 2 years' experience in product management, project management or a similar role
