<p style="min-height:1.5em"><strong>About SINGU</strong></p><p style="min-height:1.5em"></p><p style="min-height:1.5em">At <strong>SINGU</strong>, we’re redefining how the world’s most ambitious real estate companies run their operations. Our mission is to become <strong>Europe’s leading platform </strong>for managing warehouse, logistics, retail, and multi-site commercial real estate portfolios — empowering our Clients to protect revenue, boost efficiency, and unlock new value across every aspect of their business.</p><div style="min-height:1.2em;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"> </div><p style="min-height:1.5em"><strong>Our unified CAFM platform</strong> already powers the daily operations of <strong>over 250 million m² of real estate worldwide</strong>, supporting more than <strong>500,000 professionals.</strong> Following our union with the UK’s <strong>Micad</strong> and Germany’s <strong>net-haus,</strong> we now help manage <strong>100,000+ buildings</strong> across <strong>35+ countries</strong> — and we’re just getting started.</p><div style="min-height:1.2em;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"> </div><p style="min-height:1.5em">Backed by a leading growth equity investor, we’re scaling rapidly and partnering with global leaders such as<strong> Prologis, ECE, CTP, Hillwood,</strong> <strong>Logicor, GLP, and Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield.</strong> As we continue to grow through strategic acquisitions and bold innovation, we stay true to our core values: <strong>adaptability, collaboration, and client focus.</strong></p><div style="min-height:1.2em;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"> </div><p style="min-height:1.5em">If you’re ready to help build Europe’s leading platform for property operations — and make a tangible impact on how the real estate industry works —<strong> join SINGU and be part of this transformation.</strong></p><p style="min-height:1.5em"></p><h2><strong>About the Role</strong></h2><p style="min-height:1.5em"></p><p style="min-height:1.5em">You'll own a significant slice of the SINGU product suite: <strong>space management and Soft FM services</strong> – cleaning standards, portering, and catering – used every day primarily across the <strong>UK healthcare market</strong>. Product-market fit is established and thousands of users depend on these products daily. What the portfolio needs now is strategic direction and taking them to their next level of growth.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">You'll do that through a <strong>team of four Product Managers</strong> who are domain experts in the products they run. This is a <strong>hands-on leadership role</strong>. You'll stay close to customer problems yourself, you'll raise the bar on how the team discovers and validates work, and you'll have real autonomy to decide what's worth building – and to prove it works.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">SINGU group grows both organically and through acquisition, and several of these products arrived with the companies that built them. You'll shape the strategy for bringing them into <strong>one coherent ecosystem</strong> and lead your team through that change. If you enjoy taking a set of good but separate products and making them add up to something bigger, that is the interesting part of this job.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">You'll partner closely with Sales, Engineering, and Product colleagues across the SINGU Group so your portfolio drives revenue and solves real problems across the European FM market. <strong>AI is a must-have lever</strong> in our industry rather than a talking point: you'll be applying it where it measurably improves how our customers run their estates.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">This is a <strong>remote position</strong> <strong>with periodic travel to London and Kraków</strong> – roughly every two to four weeks.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em"></p><h2><strong>Role Scope</strong></h2><p style="min-height:1.5em"></p><p style="min-height:1.5em"><em><strong>People Leadership &amp;
