Head of Product (w/m/d)

Do you want to shape products that create real impact—where strategy, innovation, and user needs come together?
For you, product development is more than just a job: it is passion, craftsmanship, and responsibility all at once. You love thinking ideas through down to the smallest detail, understanding materials and manufacturing processes, and developing products that deliver genuine added value.

Our product team lives exactly this mindset. We continuously develop, test, and launch innovative and sustainable products that excel in functionality, are market-ready, and meaningfully expand the BLACKROLL universe. Key to our success are a strong supplier network, fast validation of use cases, and our uncompromising attention to detail.

As Head of Product, you are responsible for the global product vision and strategy at BLACKROLL. You lead the entire product portfolio across all categories, develop future-proof product ecosystems, and, together with your team, drive the development and international launch of successful products.

• Development and ownership of a holistic product vision and a multi-year product roadmap.
• Strategic development of the entire product portfolio (Recovery, Sleep, Smart & Digital) aligned with market, customer, and company objectives.
• End-to-end responsibility for product development—from initial idea and validation through to international launch.
• Leadership and development of the product team (currently 2–3 team members).
• Close collaboration with internal stakeholders such as Purchasing, Supply Chain, Digital, Brand, Marketing, and Sales.

• You think strategically and develop clear, actionable product visions and multi-year roadmaps.
