Introduction
Ready to re-imagine the product management role? At IBM, as an Offering Manager, you are responsible for the full lifecycle of an offering: from validating need to determining the business model and defining the solution requirements. Going beyond the traditional focus of timetables and budgets, you use your keen insights into what customers want in their own business plan - and work across disciplines to build the best solutions to a problem. If being the CEO of your offering excites you, consider an offering management career at IBM.
Your Role and Responsibilities
As a Product Manager Apprentice you will work at the epicenter of multidisciplinary teams which include design, engineering, sales, marketing, finance and legal. These product teams serve our customers' needs under ever-shifting circumstances and have passion for solving user problems with technology.
