Director, Product Strategy & Transformation

About the Role

Millions of professionals rely on Wolters Kluwer to make critical decisions across healthcare, tax, legal, financial services, compliance and corporate performance. As AI reshapes professional work, our customers expect software that is more intelligent, integrated and effective. Meeting those expectations requires rethinking how products are discovered, built, launched, measured and improved. This newly created role reflects Wolters Kluwer's commitment to transforming how products are built in the age of AI.

Reporting to the Senior Vice President, Product Strategy & Transformation, you will help lead that evolution from the Corporate Strategy Office. Working in a small enterprise team, you will partner with senior product, engineering, design and business leaders to strengthen the Product System and improve customer value, business outcomes and speed of innovation. A key focus will be advancing the Agentic Product Development Lifecycle (Agentic PDLC), using AI across product development.

You will combine deep product expertise with a hands‑on transformation mindset to implement and scale change.

This is a senior individual‑contributor role, leading through expertise, coaching, facilitation and influence. You will embed with business‑unit teams on high‑priority lighthouse initiatives, apply modern product practices and AI‑enabled workflows, and turn proven approaches into reusable tools and operating practices for broader adoption. The role can be based remotely in any country where Wolters Kluwer has an office and will require travel of approximately 35% to work directly with teams and stakeholders.

Partner with senior product, engineering, design and business leaders to identify high‑impact opportunities and connect product decisions to customer and business outcomes.

Coach product leaders and improve operating models, portfolio practices, governance and metrics. Turn effective practices into repeatable tools, learning experiences and standards for enterprise adoption. Establish success measures, demonstrate impact and use evidence to guide broader rollout.
