As an Associate Portfolio Manager (APM) on the Key Markets Team, you will support product lifecycle management, research, and go-to-market execution across our Advanced Career Training (ACT) catalogs. This includes supporting two Sr. Product Managers in being responsible for course portfolios such as Trades, Business, Legal, and Advanced Manufacturing.

This role will also contribute to critical initiatives such as Canadian market expansion and Spanish / ELL programs, but will remain grounded in core catalog ownership, course development support, and cross-functional collaboration.

• Proficient in balancing multiple tasks and handling projects in a dynamic, uncertain setting
• Enthusiastic about learning, professional development, and growing worldwide projects

• Product Management & Course Development Support

The Associate Portfolio Manager (APM) role at ed2go is distinct from Technical Product Management (TPM). While our TPM team focuses on internal and customer-facing applications, user stories, UX / UI design, and the customer journey, this role is centered on managing our course catalog, making build / buy decisions, supporting GTM strategies, and driving the success of our career training programs.

The APM will work closely with cross-functional teams to conduct market research, analyze course performance, and contribute to portfolio strategy not software or feature development.

If you have a background primarily in Technical Product Management (TPM) or software development, you are welcome to apply. However, we encourage applicants to include a cover letter outlining relevant product management experience specific to course content, market strategy, and catalog management.

• Proficiency in English and French and / or Spanish (spoken and written) preferred
• Strong multitasking and project management skills with the ability to thrive in fast‑paced, ambiguous environments
