Senior Product Manager
Clio is more than just a tech company–we are a global leader that is transforming the legal experience for all by bettering the lives of legal professionals while increasing access to justice.
Summary:
We are currently seeking a Senior Product Manager to join our Documents team. This role can be performed from one of our Canadian hubs in a hybrid capacity or remotely across Canada or the US.
What your team does:
Documents and document-related workflows are mission critical for any legal practice. Our customers generate, receive and review millions of documents every year. The entire justice system functions through the flow and exchange of documents. Lawyers need efficient and reliable ways to quickly find, research, create and collaborate on a wide variety of document types including forms, audio and video media. You will drive the product vision, strategy and roadmap execution for our Document Productivity Suite, with a focus on automating document creation and making associated workflows more efficient. This is a key area of investment for Clio and a cornerstone of our future growth.
As the successful candidate, we will rely on your tried, tested and well-honed product management skills to shape the trajectory of new products and features, as well as integrations with external products and partners. You will be responsible for driving the success of the product, from concept to delivery, ensuring it meets the evolving needs of legal professionals while maintaining a competitive edge in the market.

Strategy and Prioritization: You will drive customer and market research, identify opportunities in the Documents space, develop unbiased business cases and determine priorities that deliver significant impact for our customers and our business. You will build conviction in the initiatives that you chose to invest in and be willing to pivot when priorities change or new information comes to light.
Market and Customer Understanding: We truly believe that the success of our customers comes first so we have high expectations for Product Managers to be the expert on the user. As such, constant communication with customers, (existing, churned and prospect), as well as a deep understanding of the markets in which we operate will be expected. This will be complemented by deep quantitative data to complete the customer picture.
Partnerships: You'll act as the product liaison for partnerships, focusing on the technical complexities and user experience considerations that come with integrating third-party services.
Coaching and Mentoring: Clio will look to you to coach and mentor other Product Managers in their craft and, in conjunction with product leadership, contribute to the continuous up-leveling of the product function and contributing to the culture as a whole.
