Oversee Regional Product Team: Manage product managers and product owners in the APAC region, fostering an environment of collaboration and continuous learning. Provide on-the-job coaching and mentorship, conduct regular performance reviews, set clear goals, and identify development opportunities to foster career growth. Place a strategic focus on building in-region capacity to navigate APAC's diverse markets and strengthening local ownership of the roadmap.

Roadmap Ownership & Prioritisation: Own the regional product roadmap, business cases, and resourcing trade-offs, scoping and prioritising development activity based on business and customer impact, in close consultation with CaseWare International Product Leads and Product Owners.

Product Governance & Escalation: Act as the key internal subject matter expert on product matters across APAC, serving as the escalation point for Development and Customer Success on complex product requirements.

Development Planning & Backlog Management: Assist the Product Managers and Product Owners with planning and prioritising development work. Write and refine user stories, contribute to backlog grooming, and use Caseware's chosen product framework to guide the development of audit-related products and services.

- Other Responsibilities

Global Integration: Maintain strong working relationships with Caseware International Solution Leads and Product Managers/Owners, and with other Caseware distributors, to stay across global roadmaps and ensure APAC's customer stories, requirements, and roadmap priorities are represented in international planning.





Voice of the Customer: Regularly engage customers across all segments (small, medium, and large firms, Corporates, and Government) through client interviews and feedback channels to understand pain points, define market problems, and represent customer needs internally, ensuring the product roadmap continues to align with evolving business needs.

Industry & Standards Expertise: Maintain up-to-date knowledge of key developments in the accounting and audit industry, including local compliance standards and emerging practice issues.

Strategic Alliance & Institute Management: Manage solid working relationships with local subject matter experts, standard setters and member bodies in the APAC region, including (but not limited to) CA ANZ, CPA, AUASB, AASB, ISCA and HKICA, to support timely information sharing and Caseware's inclusion in relevant publications and technology related considerations.
