Senior Director of Product (Head of International – Real Time Operations)

Responsibilities

We are representing a confidential public safety technology organization seeking a Senior Director of Product (Head of International - Real Time Operations) based in London. In this role, you will own the strategy and execution for expanding a real-time operations platform into international markets, ensuring the product can compete, win, and deliver at scale outside the U.S.

You will define the expansion and maturity model that drives success internationally, harmonizing requirements across regions while avoiding unnecessary duplication. You will partner closely with sales leadership to understand tender pipelines and prioritize the right investments that enable deal wins and customer satisfaction, while balancing core deliverables and sustainability.

Key responsibilities include:

• Define the international product strategy for real-time operations platforms, balancing competitiveness, sustainability, and scalability
• Partner directly with international sales leadership to evaluate pipeline opportunities, shape tender responses, and prioritize engineering work to win deals
• Harmonize requirements across countries and regions, ensuring strategic parity where necessary while building features that truly matter for international success
• Collaborate with product, engineering, and program leaders to ensure international deliverables are embedded in the global roadmap
• Ensure compliance with regional security, privacy, and data residency standards critical to customer trust and adoption
• Drive continuous improvement in tender readiness, adoption, and customer success metrics across regions
• Build strong partnerships across devices, digital evidence, and productivity solutions to deliver integrated outcomes internationally
• Lead direct engagement with international customers, regulators, and partners to distill insights into product priorities
• Establish a clear execution path within 90 days that defines roadmap priorities and sequencing for international expansion

What We're Looking For

Our ideal candidate brings:

• 10+ years of product management experience in enterprise SaaS, real-time operations, VSaaS, VMS, IoT, or public safety technology
• Proven success in international product leadership, including experience scaling platforms across multiple regions with diverse compliance and operational requirements
• Experience partnering with sales leadership on tender-driven opportunities, translating deal pipelines into prioritized product roadmaps
• Strong understanding of global compliance standards (privacy, data residency, security) and their impact on product delivery
• Demonstrated ability to harmonize requirements across geographies while balancing global parity versus regional differentiation
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills; able to influence senior leaders and cross-functional teams without direct authority
• Bachelor's degree required; MBA or advanced degree preferred

You should be:

• Strategic Visionary: Anticipates international market needs and positions products ahead of competitors
• Commercially Astute: Connects product strategy to tender wins, deal pipelines, and business impact
• Collaborative Leader: Thrives in cross-functional, collaborative environments
• Operationally Disciplined: Brings clarity and structure to complex, multi-region priorities
