[Hiring] Global Product Owner / Global Head of Entity Management @GoGlobal

Role Description

At GoGlobal, the Global Product Owner (GPO), Entity Management (EMT) owns the EMT product end to end — its global scope, standards, commercial logic, processes, and economics. Reporting to the Chief Delivery Officer, you are accountable for the growth, profitability, and reputation of EMT worldwide. This is a leadership role whose primary objective is business growth through flawless delivery. You are the senior product and delivery voice for EMT in the market — client-facing, trusted by prospects and key accounts, and the partner of choice for Revenue and Sales in winning and expanding business. As the ultimate subject-matter expert for EMT, you stay close to market trends and customer demands and translate them into how the service is designed, packaged, priced, and delivered.

Roles & Responsibilities

• Commercial Leadership & Growth
  • Act as the senior, client-facing product authority for EMT: anchoring strategic client engagements, pitches, high-stakes decisions, and escalations.
  • Partner with Revenue and Sales as the expert in the room — qualifying opportunities, shaping scope and pricing, and helping convert and expand accounts.
  • Define and evolve the commercial logic — packaging, bundling, premiums, and guardrails — so EMT can be sold and delivered profitably at scale.
  • Own the reputation of the EMT product in the market.
• Product Strategy & Standards
  • Own the global scope, service definitions, and standards for EMT — what is in, what is out, and how it is delivered.
  • Set global execution standards, SLAs, and compliance expectations across all regions and delivery models.
  • Drive consistency of delivery across regions while enabling them to flex within agreed guardrails.
• Market Insight & Service Design
  • Act as the ultimate subject-matter expert for EMT, maintaining a deep, current view of market trends, competitor moves, and evolving customer demands.
  • Translate market and client insight into the design of the service and the delivery organisation, so the function is structured to meet both demand and expectation.
  • Shape the product roadmap and delivery-model choices (in-house, outsourced, automated) to capture growth opportunities.
• Process Standardisation & Continuous Improvement
  • Set the global EMT operating model and process standards; approve processes, SOPs, and control frameworks before they enter delivery.
  • Direct the Global Process Manager (GPM) on process design, standardisation, controls, and scalability — turning product intent into repeatable, executable delivery.
  • Support the enterprise AI direction and drive its adoption within EMT to enable scale and quality.
• Cost Management & Commercial Sustainability
  • Own product-level cost-to-serve for EMT, driving efficiency, productivity, and long-term economic sustainability.
  • Make deliberate trade-offs across scope design, automation, sourcing, and delivery-model choices to keep delivery economics healthy as the product scales.
  • Diagnose cost pressures, identify root causes, and lead corrective action, supported by Finance on modelling and analysis.
• Regional Delivery Governance & Team Leadership
  • Lead all Regional Product Owners (RPOs) for EMT as their global head, holding them and the Outsourcing Control leads accountable for regional delivery outcomes and economics.
  • Provide the framework within which regional autonomy — in-house versus outsourced mix, capacity, and hiring proposals — is exercised, and arbitrate cross-regional or peer-function disagreements when escalated.
  • Lead, mentor, and develop the GPM, RPOs, and OC leads; build product, commercial, and delivery capability across the global EMT team.
• Scope & Commercial Governance
  • Propose and own changes to product scope, service tiers, and commercial logic, routing them through the agreed approval framework for impact assessment and implementation readiness.
  • Support enabling functions on scope-to-catalogue mapping, SKU registration, and pricing alignment.
  • Validate post-implementation effectiveness of scope and commercial changes through defined metrics, and refine where needed.
• Compliance, Audit & Risk
  • Set the global compliance posture for EMT across company law, corporate-governance codes, and statutory filing and corporate-secretarial requirements.
  • Ensure EMT delivery maintains internal controls and regulatory adherence in every jurisdiction the product serves.
  • Engage with internal and external audit on EMT product-level matters.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration
  • Work closely with the Chief Delivery Officer, peer Global Product Owners, Revenue, Technology, and the enabling functions across Delivery.
  • Represent the EMT product in cross-functional and executive forums.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Law, Business, or a related field; a Chartered Secretary / governance qualification (ICSA / CGI) or a legal / corporate-governance background preferred. MBA or equivalent is a plus.
• 15+ years of experience in entity management, corporate secretarial, or corporate-services operations, with at least 5 years owning a product, service line, or regional / global function end to end.
• Managing Director–level leadership experience, with the gravitas to operate as a senior commercial and product leader.
• Track record of driving growth — revenue, win rate, retention, and expansion — not only delivery.
• Experience running a service-line P&L at scale — owning cost-to-serve, productivity, margin, and pricing logic.
• Strong working knowledge of company law, corporate governance, and statutory filing / corporate-secretarial requirements across multiple regions (APAC, EMEA, and ideally the Americas).
• Demonstrated experience designing service standards, commercial logic (packaging, bundling, premiums), and pricing frameworks.
• Strong client-facing and business-development capability, comfortable as the senior product voice in front of clients and prospects.
• Experience leading senior delivery and product leaders — regional heads, process leads, and outsourcing-control / vendor-management leads — across multiple regions.
• Deep market awareness, with the ability to read trends and customer demand and shape the service accordingly.
• Process-oriented mindset, believing in global standards as the foundation for scalable, sustainable delivery — with the judgement to know where flexibility serves the client.
• Strong analytical and strategic problem-solving skills; comfortable with financial modelling, scenario analysis, and unit economics.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder-management skills, with the ability to influence at executive level.
• Familiarity with entity-management / corporate-secretarial platforms (e.g. Viewpoint, Quantios Core, CSC, Diligent Entities, GEMS, or equivalent) and registry / document management systems.
• Comfort with AI-assisted tools and automation as enablers of product scale and quality.

Preferred

• Prior experience as a product or service-line head in a global corporate-services / entity management firm or in a Big-4 corporate-services context.
• Experience leading a P&L turnaround, transformation, or in-housing programme.
• Experience operating in an EoR, PEO, or global business services environment.

Benefits

• A company small enough for your voice to be heard meaningfully, yet large enough to make a global impact.
• Collaborating with a diverse, global and supportive team.
• Built for the long-haul - no VC or PE pressure, just a focus on sustainable growth.
