About Us

aXcelerate is a leading Australian SaaS company transforming the way organisations develop skills, manage learning, and build workforce capability. Our integrated platform combines a powerful Student Management System (SMS), Learning Management System (LMS), and Skills, our workforce competency management solution, to help training providers, enterprises, and government organisations simplify compliance, streamline operations, and develop confident, capable workforces.

Recognised as a Great Place to Work for three consecutive years, we're proud to foster a culture where our people are empowered to innovate, collaborate and grow. We believe our success comes from creating an environment where ideas are valued, curiosity is encouraged, and every individual has the opportunity to make a meaningful impact.

As we continue our exciting growth journey, there's never been a better time to join a team that's shaping the future of education technology.

The opportunity

We’re looking for a Senior Product Manager to take full ownership of key areas of our system. Reporting to our Head of Product, you’ll be responsible for those areas end to end: what we build, why we build it, and whether it works for our customers.

The role is all about enabling a stellar learning experience for students, while building a great platform for content authors, assessors, and administrators.

You’ll work closely with stakeholders to understand customer needs, monitor market trends and define a clear, achievable roadmap. You’ll champion discovery, prioritisation and delivery practices that ensure we ship high-value, user-centric features aligned with business goals.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a collaborative environment, communicates with clarity and focuses on delivering meaningful improvements for customers and the business.

Responsibilities

You’ll own the roadmap for your product areas. That means setting a clear direction, explaining your reasoning and influencing where resources go. In practice, you’ll:

  • Talk to customers, research the market and track usage data to find where you can add the most value
  • Write clear requirements so design and development never have to guess what “done” looks like
  • Explore multiple solutions, weigh the trade-offs openly and help your squad make sound scoping decisions
  • Run efficient betas, work out what you need to learn, and act on the results
  • Meet regularly with your product squad to keep work moving, clear blockers and keep stakeholders informed
  • Partner with Product Marketing on competitor research, launch and go-to-market plans, onboarding and documentation
  • Build a steady shipping cadence while keeping quality high, including contributing to QA
  • Bring people together around a shared problem statement, and make clear, confident decisions when it counts

You’ll work with the Head of Product and the wider team during your first few months to agree exactly which parts of the platform you’ll own.

About You

  • Commercial experience as a Product Manager or Product Owner, or closely transferable experience
  • A solid grasp of product management methods, the product development lifecycle and development methodologies
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, and a habit of letting data guide your decisions
  • Experience with cloud-based software
  • Excellent communication skills and the ability to build alignment across teams and stakeholders
  • Strong organisation and attention to detail, and comfort working both independently and collaboratively
  • A real curiosity about what makes a product succeed in the market

Highly Desirable

  • B2B SaaS experience
  • An understanding of the Australian VET sector
  • A background in product design, software development, QA or leading software projects
  • Experience with Jira and Figma
  • Familiarity with aXcelerate’s products

What We Offer

  • A central location, close to public transport, cafes and shops, with free on-site parking available.
  • A vibrant, supportive and team-oriented culture, with regular team activities and social events.
  • Opportunities for flexible and hybrid working.
  • A focus on professional development and learning, with access to our LMS, external and internal training opportunities and your own personal annual PD budget.
  • Access for you and your family to an Employee Assistance Program and resources.
  • Cashback offers and discounts on popular brands through our Employment Hero app.
  • Discounted gym membership and Pilates Class offers to support your health and wellbeing.
  • Opportunities for career development with well defined career pathways across the business.
  • Proud members of Women in Technology with access to networking events, professional development opportunities and resources.

How To Apply

Please submit an up-to-date resume which outlines your suitability for the role.

We're looking for individuals who resonate with our values - H.E.A.R.T.: Honesty, Empathy, Acceptance, Respect, and Trust, whilst also bringing a unique perspective to their work.
