• Projecting the commercial opportunity of the product

Success will be measured against 3 key metrics:

• Product Delivery
• Adoption, usage and value (all tracked today via a product analytics tool)
• Commercial outcomes (specifically cross‑selling of our agents)

• Establishing the vision for the product as well as building & managing the roadmap
• Building new…
