Te Tūranga | About the Role:
Join Silver Fern Farms and help shape a nature-positive future. We are seeking a purpose-driven Product Manager to lead and grow our Nature Positive digital product portfolio – an emerging, high-impact space focused on enabling measurable action for biodiversity, environmental stewardship, and climate resilience through data and technology.
This role represents an opportunity to drive the evolution of a fast-developing digital product grounded in science, sustainability, and strategy. Working within our Digital Innovation Practice, closely with our Nature Data Lead and across cross-functional squads, you will play a central role in building and operationalising datasets, dashboards, and digital tools that underpin Silver Fern Farms' journey towards being Nature Positive.
This role is best suited to a seasoned Product Manager with strong digital instincts, technical fluency, and a track record of navigating complex internal landscapes. Your experience will help shape a product that is built on solid data foundations, connects deeply with science, and delivers value to a range of internal users and stakeholders.
Why this role matters
The world is shifting focus toward environmental accountability, and we've committed to being part of the solution. Our Nature Positive programme is a key pillar of this transformation, turning data into action for biodiversity, land, water, and climate.
This Product Manager role is critical to making that happen.
By helping shape the digital tools, datasets, and frameworks that drive our Nature Positive strategy, you won’t just be managing features or sprints – you’ll enable real-world outcomes, support farmers to steward the land, and guide us through a new era of responsibility and innovation.
This is product leadership with purpose.
