Director, Product Management, Certifications and Compliance

BeyondTrust is a place where you can bring your purpose to life through the work that you do, creating a safer world through our cybersecurity SaaS portfolio.

Our culture of flexibility, trust, and continual learning means you will be recognized for your growth, and for the impact you make on our success. You will be surrounded by people who challenge, support, and inspire you to be the best version of yourself.

The Role

The Director, Product Management role will focus on certifications and compliance, and will lead business line growth for the BeyondTrust platform and product portfolio across the US Public Sector, global government markets, and regulated security and compliance frameworks. This role owns the strategy, planning, and support the execution of certifications and compliance initiatives across the full product lifecycle, working cross-functionally and cross-organizationally to align teams, priorities, and outcomes.   

This is a product leadership role with direct accountability for business outcomes. Certifications are treated as strategic product investments that enable new sales, unlock regulated markets, and accelerate revenue growth. They are a means to growth, not an end in themselves. Ownership is shared across the organization, but this role is accountable for ensuring certifications function as a durable product and business capability, not a compliance-only exercise.
