About the Role
The Product Commercialization Manager supports the execution of Nutrafol's product innovation pipeline. This role helps turn product strategy into category-leading beauty/ topical products in the market - one of the company's highest-priority growth bets - all delivered on time, on budget, and at the quality bar our customers expect.
Reporting to the Sr. Product Commercialization Manager this role is the day-to-day project owner for Topicals Innovation, partnering across Marketing, R&D, Creative, RA/QA, Clinical, Supply Chain, Operations, Finance, Sales, and external manufacturing partners to bring structure, pace, and clarity to a fast-moving roadmap. As our topicals ambitions grow, you may also be asked to take on additional product development projects. This role is built for someone who wants their scope to expand alongside a growing business.
You will also help maintain and improve the systems, processes, and tools that support our product development engine, using project management platforms, AI-enabled tools, and automation to support speed, transparency, and efficiency. If you're energized by turning plans into flawless execution and you want real ownership of a high-visibility project rather than a slice of many, this role offers that runway, with a clear path to take on more as you grow.

Stakeholder Communication & Visibility
- Track and communicate topicals project progress with clear, timely updates for the project team and cross-functional stakeholders

Tools & Continuous Improvement
- Use project management tools and platforms (e.g., Asana, Smartsheet, Monday, Wrike, Airtable, Jira) to run topicals projects, consistent with standards set for the function
- Leverage AI-enabled tools and automation to support status reporting, risk detection, document generation, meeting summarization, and resource forecasting
- Contribute to dashboards and reporting that turn topicals project data into actionable insight on cycle time, on-time delivery, scope changes, and resource utilization
- Apply project management standards, templates, RACI models, and stage-gate playbooks established for the broader product development function
Cross-Functional Partnership
- Serve as the day-to-day operational partner for Topicals Innovation to Product Development & Marketing
- Partner with R&D, Creative, Regulatory, Clinical, Supply Chain, Operations, Finance, Sales, and external vendors/co-manufacturers to align topicals timelines and deliverables
- Support a culture of accountability, clarity, and forward momentum on the topicals project team
