Founded by serial entrepreneurs Rico Andersen and Martin Hegelund, Shine is a leading European fintech unicorn on a mission to restore the joy of running a business, by ending wasted time on financial admin.

Shine offers a connected solution for invoicing, accounting, payroll, business accounts, payments, and financing, meaning business owners can focus their energy on growing a healthy business, not held back by manual admin.

Your role as a Product Marketing Manager at Shine We're looking for a (Senior) Product Marketing Manager to own how Shine's Invoicing & Accounting products reaches, lands with, and grows its customer base in the German market. Most PMM roles ask you to position one product in one market.

This role asks you to do something harder: hold two products in productive tension, protect an established brand while validating a new one, and author the transition story that brings customers from the old world to the new — without losing them along the way.

If you've done this kind of work before — navigating a portfolio, managing a migration narrative, winning in a competitive market mid-transition — we want to talk to you.

Your responsibilities will include: • Market & competitive intelligence: Size the market, track trends, and continuously monitor the German competitive landscape and global challengers as early-signal proxies.

Keep positioning differentiators and pricing benchmarks up to date and turn insights into clear, actionable recommendations. • Customer understanding & segmentation: Own the ongoing research rhythm in Germany – from in-app feedback and surveys to user interviews, behavioural data, and CS/Sales debriefs.

Use these insights to identify underserved segments and unaddressed use cases. • Whitespace & opportunities: Quantify new opportunities in a local and global context, surface the most relevant signals for roadmap prioritisation, and partner with PMs on discovery work where market specifics shape what gets built. • Positioning, offer & go-to-market: Localise global positioning, messaging, and product narrative for the German market.

Define segment‑specific proof points and competitive angles, shape plan differentiation, value per tier, and upsell triggers, and lead in-market GTM execution for launches, campaigns, and messaging rollouts with hands‑on ownership. • Product presence & lifecycle: Own the product journey from first impression to ongoing engagement: website presence, activation flows, in-app messaging, and onboarding.

Drive adoption, retention, and feature awareness tied to usage milestones and be accountable for market‑level outcomes. • Sales & CS enablement: Equip local Sales and CS with sharp, practical enablement: messaging guides, competitive battlecards, objection‑handling frameworks, and focused launch briefings that lead to better customer conversations.

Job located in Berlin with possibility of two remote working days per week About you • You have 6-8 years of experience in Product Marketing.

Bonus points for experience in fintech, accounting software, or B2SMB SaaS • You're strong on market and customer insight: you can size a market, track competitors, run interviews or surveys, read dashboards – and turn all of that into sharp positioning and segment‑specific value propositions. • You know how to run launches end to end: messaging, channels, campaigns, internal enablement – and you keep Product, Sales, Marketing and Support aligned along the way. • You're commercially minded and comfortable working with pricing and packaging, including value‑based pricing, willingness‑to‑pay, and tiered plans. • You don't just understand AI – you build with it.
