About the role :

We’re looking for a Lead Product Manager to lead the vision, strategy, and execution of our Business Planning initiative, Catalyst — a bold new product line that will transform how our customers plan, collaborate, and operate across their revenue organizations.

This is a zero-to-one leadership role : you will own the effort of bringing a new category-defining offering to market, working closely with engineering, design, GTM, and senior leadership (including ELT sponsors). You will be accountable for guiding our Catalyst Business Planning product from initial launch with early adopters through to market traction and scale.

Our Business Planning offering is positioned to become a connected planning platform , initially focused on revenue teams but designed to expand into adjacent workflows like finance, headcount planning, cost forecasting, anomaly detection, and beyond — exploiting the latest in AI / ML and forecasting techniques.

This is a rare opportunity to launch and grow a new business line that is viewed as critical to CaptivateIQ’s future.

Responsibilities :

• Own the product vision & strategy for Business Planning, setting direction and driving alignment across the company.
• Shepherd Catalyst from launch → success : partner with design and engineering to define the MVP, iterate with early adopters, and expand into a highly sellable product that wins in market.
• Recruit and manage design partners and early adopters; build deep customer relationships that translate into referenceable logos.
• Drive roadmap & execution end-to-end — from strategic goals through detailed requirements, feature delivery, and adoption.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with GTM, Sales, CS, Marketing, Finance, and Enablement to build and refine a successful go-to-market motion.
• Represent the voice of the customer and the market — conduct discovery, research, and competitive analysis to shape differentiated, high-value solutions.
• Position CaptivateIQ as a modern alternative to legacy BPM vendors (Anaplan, Pigment, etc.) by emphasizing usability, scalability, and speed to value.
• Act as a thought leader in planning and BPM — stay on top of market trends, represent CaptivateIQ in customer and industry forums, and shape our AI story in this space.
• Mentor and model excellence for developing PMs, raising the bar on product practice across the organization.
