About the role

<div class="content-intro"><h2 data-pm-slice="1 1 []">WHO ARE WE</h2> Cognism is the leading provider of European B2B data and sales intelligence. Ambitious businesses of every size use our platform to discover, connect, and engage with qualified decision-makers faster and close more deals. Headquartered in London with global offices, Cognism’s contact data and contextual signals are trusted by thousands of revenue teams to eliminate the guesswork from prospecting.</div>The Opportunity  Cognism has built one of the most trusted B2B datasets in Europe. As we turn that data into market-leading products, we need a product manager who can own data products end to end - from understanding what customers are trying to achieve, to shaping what we build, to making sure it lands and creates value.  This is a strategic role, where your leverage comes from the quality of your product decisions and your ability to align others around them. You will own a set of data products, be accountable for their quality, and be the person who turns a customer problem into a clear, buildable product that people genuinely want to use. The starting point is always the customer: what problem they have, what they have tried, and what would change their workflow.  What This Role Owns  <ul> <li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="6" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559685":520,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="1" data-aria-level="1">The strategy for your product area -
