Senior Product Manager, Scheduling

Are you a dynamic product manager with a passion for improving the lives of your customers with a track record of driving high-impact projects?

Then Jobber might be the place for you! We’re looking for a Product Manager to be part of our Scheduling team.

Jobber exists to help people in small businesses be successful. We work with small home service businesses, like your local plumbers, electricians, painters, and landscapers, to transform the way service is delivered through technology. With Jobber they can quote, schedule, invoice, and collect payments from their customers, while providing an easy and professional customer experience. Running a small business today isn’t like it used to be—the way we consume and deliver service is changing rapidly, technology is evolving, and customers expect more. That’s why we put the power and flexibility in their hands to run their businesses how, where, and when they want! 

Our culture of transparency, inclusivity, collaboration, and innovation has been recognized by Great Place to Work, Canada’s Most Admired Corporate Cultures, and more. Jobber has also been named on the Globe and Mail’s Canada’s Top Growing Companies list, and Deloitte Canada’s Technology Fast 50™, Enterprise Fast 15, and Technology Fast 500™ lists. With an Executive team that has over thirty years of industry experience of leading the way, we’ve come a long way from our first customer in 2011—but we’ve just scratched the surface of what we want to accomplish for our customers.

The team:

Scheduling is a critical part of Jobber. We call it the “middle of our workflow” — our customers will quote work, then schedule it, then bill it. As such, this team is central to our entire offering and you will be owning one of the most important parts of the product. 

At Jobber, we are revolutionizing how to run a home service business. This is particularly true of scheduling. Scheduling for home services businesses is complicated — our customers need to take into account where the client lives so they can build an efficient route, what equipment may be needed on site, when the client can be home and when the crew member is actually available. On top of that, scheduling needs vary highly between customers — an emergency plumber schedules quite differently than a 20 person lawn-crew. With improvements in ML/AI decision models and mapping software, there is a ton of opportunity to reduce this scheduling complexity for our customers and make scheduling dead-simple. This is your team’s mission. You will be leading an innovative area for a hugely common problem.

The role: 

Reporting to the Work Smarter Product Senior Director, the Product Manager will balance quantitative and qualitative research to deeply understand both the overall market conditions and our customers’ problems, to ensure we are executing on the highest priority initiatives.
