  • Drive launch planning and project management for new models—timelines, risks, milestones, and cross-functional coordination.

  • Support local product development, accessories scope, homologation inputs, and evaluation/durability testing administration.

  • Create crisp product briefs, sales training content, and executive presentations; communicate status and decisions to stakeholders.

What You Bring

  • 7–10 years' post-qualification experience with at least 5 years in an automotive OEM; 2–3 years as Product or Marketing Manager.

  • BA/BCom Honours in Marketing (or equivalent); engineering degree advantageous; strong business and market acumen.

  • Proven strength in analytics, pricing, research methods, and spec/value analysis; advanced Excel and PowerPoint.

  • Project management capability and stakeholder leadership across sales, marketing, after-sales, engineering, logistics, and finance.

  • Clear, persuasive communication and presentation skills; collaborative, resilient, and customer-centric mindset.

What Success Looks Like

  • Winning product strategies per nameplate with clear RTWs, target customer profiles, and evidence-based pricing.

  • On-time, low-risk model introductions with tight project control and visible cross-functional alignment.

  • Accurate, controlled specifications and lifecycle actions that protect margin and grow share.

  • Continuous insight flows from dealers and customer,s translated into pragmatic product corrections and local variant opportunities.

  • Clear, executive-ready presentations and training that equip commercial teams to sell on value.
