Role description
We are expanding our AI Studio with cross-functional teams dedicated to building AI-enabled products that strengthen and accelerate the services and software Arcadis delivers to clients. As a Senior Product Manager, you will define the product vision and strategy, align with our digital strategy, and shape the delivery approach for these AI solutions. You will be responsible for ensuring that what we build delivers measurable client impact, is technically feasible, and can scale across sectors and geographies.
The AI Studio plays a critical role in accelerating Arcadis's development and scaling of AI-enabled services and digital products, ensuring that emerging capabilities are translated into practical solutions that enhance delivery and create value across global markets.
This role requires someone who is comfortable navigating a large corporate environment – proactive, resilient, and able to create structure where needed. You will introduce clarity, define pragmatic processes, and ensure teams operate with discipline and focus. You will bring hands‑on experience with AI and automation, knowing when and how to apply AI to improve our solutions and internal ways of working. Above all, you will bring entrepreneurial energy: a builder’s mindset, the ability to turn opportunities into tangible products, and the skill to craft a compelling vision and align stakeholders around it.
Operating at the intersection of technology, business, and our global service lines, you will identify high‑value opportunities and guide teams through discovery and delivery to ensure we solve the problems that matter most for our clients. You will collaborate closely with the digital technology leadership team to drive clarity, prioritization, and progress across the portfolio.
