Build the foundations that power great content and help every dog owner find the right nutrition: through a scalable CMS, smarter discovery, and sustainable ways of working. Changing the world of pet food for good We’re Tails.com, a dog food subscription company with a big difference. We create truly tailored food for each and every dog we serve. We start by asking people a few simple questions about their dog. Then we use that information to create their dog’s unique Tails.com recipe – so their dog gets exactly the nutrition they need, in the taste they love, delivered to their door every month. It’s clever stuff. We’ve got bold plans. Having created an entirely new category in pet food, we’re now scaling fast – backed by Purina, one of the world’s largest pet food companies. You’ll join a bunch of smart people working towards the same goals – and a bunch of smart-ish dogs, all working on their own thing. Together, we’ll change the world of pet food for good. Build our brand We’re building an international brand, fast. We set ambitious goals. We challenge and support each other in equal measure. At the pace we’re moving, we prefer to test ideas and learn quickly rather than spend months building a business case. That means we celebrate when things go right, and we learn when things go wrong. Sound like a team you want to join? Here’s how you’ll make a difference: The role This Product Manager role is a unique opportunity to lead the definition and delivery of a new CMS and discovery platform, underpinning how customers find, understand, and choose the right nutrition for their dog.

CMS, Content & Operating Model Enablement Define and evolve content models, taxonomy, metadata, and workflows in partnership with content teams. Design sustainable content creation, approval, and publishing workflows that enable self-serve use of the CMS. Ensure governance, ownership, and decision rights are clear for content and CMS usage. Lead content inventory, migration planning, validation, and readiness for launch. Own decisions around content decommissioning and legacy clean-up. Discovery, SEO & Data Own requirements for search, browse, navigation, filtering, recommendations, and relevance. Define SEO, URL management, and migration requirements to protect and improve performance. Own requirements for data layer tagging and tracking customer journeys from landing to sign-up. Work with marketing, designers, and data partners to shape and optimise discovery journeys. Use data and feedback to iterate and improve discovery performance post-launch. Ways of Working & Continuous Improvement Apply discovery techniques to validate problems and test solutions. Translate validated needs into clear PRDs, epics, user stories, and acceptance criteria. Support agile delivery rituals and backlog management, keeping teams focused on the highest-value work. Establish feedback loops and metrics to inform future optimisation and roadmap decisions. The skills you’ll bring: Proven experience leading cross-functional teams to deliver complex CMS, content, or platform initiatives spanning engineering, design, content, SEO, and marketing.
