The Lactation Network (TLN) is in search of an experienced Product Marketing Manager to bridge the gap between product development and marketing, ensuring that the product meets the needs of the target market and that the marketing efforts effectively communicate its value proposition. You will play a crucial role in shaping the positioning, messaging, and go-to-market strategy for our digital healthcare solutions. You'll be integral in understanding and representing the voice of the customer, collaborating closely with internal teams and external stakeholders.
