About Eneve
Eneve builds the infrastructure layer for European energy markets, platforms for suppliers, balancers, producers, and industrial consumers operating in a market that is fast, complex, and increasingly data-driven. Across five group companies, we combine deep energy domain expertise with modern software product practice.
Our Contract & Billing solution is Eneve’s SaaS billing platform for growing energy suppliers, purpose-built to handle the operational complexity of energy retail at scale, from contract management and meter data processing through to invoicing and revenue settlement.
The role
The Contract & Billing solution is at an inflection point. In this role you will report to the Head of Product (Group). The platform serves a growing base of energy suppliers in The Netherlands, and the product decisions made over the next 18–24 months will define whether our solution will remain the trusted product energy suppliers can build upon steering them through a volatile and rapidly transitioning market.
We’re looking for a seasoned Product Manager to own the solution end-to-end: strategy, roadmap, positioning, and commercial relevance. You’ll lead a team that includes two Product Owners and a growing group of data scientists, responsible for both the product direction and the people delivering it.
This is a principal-level role with real line management responsibility. You set the strategic direction, develop your team, and operate as the primary product interface toward Sales, Marketing, and key customers. You bring the experience to work with significant autonomy, challenge strategic assumptions, and shape not just what gets built, but why, for whom, and at what price.
What you’ll do
Product Strategy & Roadmap
Define and maintain a multi-year product direction, grounded in market dynamics, customer needs, and Eneve group strategy. Translate strategic intent into a coherent, prioritised roadmap. Own the “why” behind every major initiative — and be able to defend it commercially and technically. Identify overlaps, gaps, and dependencies relative to the broader Eneve group portfolio, and surface them as structured input to the Head of Product.
Team Leadership
Directly manage two Product Owners and a growing team of data scientists. Set clear goals, provide ongoing feedback, and develop each person’s capability and career. Create the conditions for POs to own their backlogs and delivery execution effectively, and for the data science team to work on problems with real product and commercial impact.
As the team grows, your ability to lead through clarity and context, not oversight, will matter as much as your product instincts.
Market & Competitive Intelligence
Track developments in energy retail, billing infrastructure, and adjacent SaaS markets across Northwestern Europe. Identify positioning opportunities, whitespace, and competitive threats. Feed market insight into roadmap decisions and commercial strategy.
Commercial Positioning & Pricing
Own the value proposition, packaging logic, and pricing structure, in collaboration with Sales, Marketing, and the Head of Product. Ensure the solution is positioned clearly and competitively for its target segment: growing energy suppliers who have outgrown generic billing tools but aren’t ready for enterprise-grade complexity.
Customer & Sales Engagement
Engage directly with key customers and prospects on product direction, capability gaps, and roadmap conversations. Act as the primary product contact for Sales and Marketing. Structure customer and sales input into roadmap-relevant insight rather than feature lists.
Go-to-Market
Lead product input into launches, releases, and commercial enablement. Ensure Sales and Marketing have what they need to position and sell our contract & billing solution effectively, messaging, competitive framing, release narratives.
Balancing Innovation & Execution
Monitor delivery capacity to ensure innovation and execution remain in balance. Prioritise initiatives based on strategic fit, commercial relevance, customer impact, and feasibility. Filter and shape new opportunities before they enter the roadmap — keeping the product focused rather than fragmented. Encourage disciplined experimentation while maintaining a high bar for what gets committed.
Reporting & Upward Communication
Provide structured updates to the Head of Product on product direction, roadmap status, and commercial positioning. Prepare decision-ready materials for group-level planning and prioritisation. Maintain clear communication of product priorities across Engineering, Sales, and Marketing — so alignment doesn’t depend on you being in every room.
Job requirements
What we’re looking for
8+ years in B2B SaaS product management, with ownership of a commercial product from strategy through to GTM.
Demonstrated line management experience, you’ve developed POs, junior PMs, or technical specialists and have a considered approach to it.
Comfortable leading a mixed team: product-oriented POs alongside analytically-oriented data scientists, you know how to commission and scope data science work, anchor it to product outcomes, and evaluate results without false precision.
Strong commercial instincts, you think in terms of buyer motivation, segment fit, and revenue impact, not just features and user stories.
Excellent written and verbal communication; you translate fluently between technical, commercial, and strategic audiences.
Experience working with or alongside a Product Owner in a split PM/PO model, including navigating the moments when strategic direction and backlog ownership pull in different directions.
Able to drive commercial outcomes, pricing changes, packaging decisions, GTM shifts, without owning budget or a sales team; influence here is the lever, not authority.
Strong analytical and synthesis skills, you turn fragmented customer, market, and commercial input into structured, decision-ready insight rather than noise.
Comfortable navigating the space between strategy and execution, you operate with clarity on where your authority ends and where alignment begins.
Domain; energy retail experience is a strong advantage; genuine domain curiosity is a minimum:
Energy retail, utilities, or supplier operations (billing, metering, contract management).
Billing, revenue management, or meter-to-cash SaaS platforms.
ERP or financial operations software for complex, data-intensive environments.
What success looks like
You’ve owned a product that matters commercially, not just operationally. You’re a natural team builder, you know how to set direction clearly enough that your POs can move without you, and how to connect data science work to problems worth solving. You’re comfortable making a call when the data is incomplete, and you know how to bring Sales, Engineering, and leadership along without losing momentum. You don’t just operate in the strategy space or the execution space, you’re at your best in the messy middle between them, where clarity has to be created, not handed down. When the news is uncomfortable or the recommendation is to stop something, you frame it clearly and early rather than managing around it. You’re curious about energy markets, or already fluent in them, and you find the domain genuinely interesting rather than incidental. You’re willing to travel between group offices and customer locations when the conversation warrants it.
