## Description

As Manager, Digital Product Strategy at Ford, you’ll tackle consequential questions: where should we invest in our digital product portfolio, what should we stop, and how do we connect vehicles, digital products, dealers, and services into an experience that our customers value?

You’ll work with senior leaders across Product, Design, Engineering, Finance, and Ford Pro to pressure-test major bets, shape portfolio choices, and turn recommendations into measurable action.

## Responsibilities

### Digital Product Strategy & Portfolio Choices

- Set portfolio direction: Translate enterprise and Integrated Services priorities into strategy for the retail ecosystem, simpler and more intuitive experiences, confidence to do more with the vehicle, and Ford Pro Intelligence.

- Pressure-test the bets: Evaluate where to double down, invest, sustain, or pull back.

### Strategic Questions, Market & Ecosystem

- Frame build/buy/partner choices: Develop recommendations on what Ford must own, where it should partner, and how to protect customer experience and strategic control points.

- Run the intelligence loop: Track customer needs, competitors, platform shifts, and partner moves.

### Strategy Deployment & Decision Cadence

- Connect strategy to delivery: Tie strategic pillars to proposed roadmaps using established objectives and measures to inform choices.

- Put established measures to work: Partner with the teams that own Digital Product metrics and performance reporting.

### Executive Storytelling & Team Leadership

- Own consequential narratives: Develop sharp, evidence-backed materials for Digital Product and Integrated Services leaders, executive forums, and Board discussions.

- Lead through influence: Independently drive complex workstreams with Product, Design, Engineering, Finance, Retail, Ford Pro, and service partners.

## Qualifications

- Education: Bachelor's degree required.

- 3+ years of experience in Management Consulting, Corporate Strategy, Product Strategy, or a related field.

- Strategic and analytical judgment: Proven ability to structure ambiguous problems, assess a portfolio of bets, test assumptions, build business cases, and make explicit recommendations and trade-offs.

- Executive communication: Exceptional writing and presentation skills.

- Operational discipline: Ability to manage several high-priority workstreams and deliver rigorous work under tight deadlines.

- Systems thinking: Ability to connect customer needs, product choices, platform and delivery constraints, business outcomes, and enterprise priorities.

- Influence without authority: Ability to align cross-functional leaders through trust, sound judgment, and a candid view of evidence and risks.
