Join BLP and help make the world’s business processes autonomous!
Our agentic platform helps finance and operations teams worldwide remove manual work from their core business processes, so work runs end-to-end with greater control and significant productivity gains.
Today, over 550 enterprise customers use BLP across 1,300+ deployed projects. In the processes we automate, customers achieve productivity improvements of 5 to 10 times.
To date, BLP remains majority employee-owned, with Goldman Sachs holding a minority stake as a growth investor. Our success is driven by deep expertise in technology and business processes, a superior product with strong product-market fit, reflected in an expanding customer base that includes Fortune 500 companies.
BLP is one of Switzerland's fastest-growing SaaS scale-ups; we are now entering our next phase of growth. From our headquarters on Zürich's Bahnhofstrasse, we're expanding globally, with a growing presence across Europe and North America.
Join us and help make autonomous operations the new standard.
The opportunity
Our engineering teams build a product that enterprises run their purchase-to-pay and order-to-cash processes on every day. Much of the product knowledge behind it sits with our founders and domain experts. As we grow, we are moving from a project-oriented model, where features come top-down and success is measured by output, to a product-oriented one: empowered teams that own problems end-to-end and are measured by their impact on customers and the business.
As Head of Product, you lead that shift. You build the product management practice for the BLP Platform from an early stage. Our first product managers are joining stream-aligned teams, starting with Invoice and Procurement, and the team will grow to 4–5 PMs as we expand. You hire them, coach them, and set the standard for what great product work looks like at BLP.
You report to the CTO and work closely with Engineering, Projects, Sales, and our founders.
What you’ll do
Build and lead the product management practice for the BLP Platform: hire, coach, and develop a team of product managers as we scale.
Move the product organization from an output-driven model to an outcome-driven one.
Establish the product management craft at BLP: discovery practices, evidence-based decision making, and a clear standard for what “good” looks like in the role.
Transfer product knowledge out of the experts’ heads and into the teams, without losing the domain depth that got us here.
Build the direct line between our teams and our customers.
Make our data usable for product decisions. We have BigQuery, PostHog, and prediction-rate analytics available, and we want product managers who reach for them by default.
Shape how the product organization works as we grow: intake, prioritization, roadmapping, and the operating rhythm.
Contribute directly to product strategy for the platform.
What you bring
10+ years in product management, including experience leading or formally coaching product managers, with a real point of view on how product people are developed.
Experience working in an empowered product model, where teams were assigned problems to solve rather than features to build.
A track record of shipping enterprise B2B software that customers actually adopted.
Experience moving an organization toward an empowered product model, including the political and cultural side of it.
The ability to hold a position with engineers, sales, and executives, and to say no in a way that keeps the relationship.
Entrepreneurial judgment: comfortable operating with incomplete information, choosing a direction, and owning the result.
Fluent English.
Enterprise ERP or finance exposure, experience with AI or agentic products in production (particularly reliability, evaluation, and trust in enterprise settings), and German are a plus.
Why BLP
Build a function: you shape how product management works at BLP while the team grows.
Direct work with the CTO and founders on product strategy for the platform.
A product with deep domain substance and a large enterprise customer base to learn from.
Employee participation plan.
