About SafeLease
SafeLease builds and sells insurance products for commercial property owners. Our reinsurance and asset management businesses insure over 4,000 properties, 500,000 tenants, and have over $1B of AUM. Our team of technologists, agents, and underwriters simplifies complex risks to intelligently allocate capital and deliver policies quickly and affordably.
We focus on insurance products for the self-storage industry but are rapidly expanding our suite of services to other industries. We believe traditional commercial insurance can be distributed faster and cheaper. To do that, we’ve brought the entire insurance value chain—distribution, underwriting, and reinsurance—under one roof to drive innovation in an industry that’s ripe for change.
What You’ll Do On The Product Team:
With the continued growth of our technical organization, we’re hiring a Senior Product Manager, Property and Casualty to steward our most essential product lines—grounding decisions in customer insight and driving the next phase of product implementation. In this role, you’ll own the account interfaces used by operators and third-party agents, with a strong emphasis on defining intuitive UIs, conducting customer research and user testing, and partnering closely with design to deliver exceptional user experiences.
Who You Are:
You delight in delighting users. Making it easy for Agents and Operators alike to get quotes and manage their policies. Insurance may not be flashy, but it is critical for almost any business and the market size for commercial real estate is enormous. Your tool will be used to protect billions of dollars worth of assets.
You’re a strategic, hands-on leader who thrives at the intersection of customer insight, product strategy, and business impact. You’ll lead discovery efforts to deeply understand user needs, identify market whitespace, and translate signals from customer, market, and competitive data into actionable insights that shape strategy and roadmaps.
You know how to drive clarity and focus—collaborating cross-functionally with Engineering, Product, Finance, GTM, and Executive Leadership to define priorities, refine requirements, and ensure go-to-market readiness. You’re just as comfortable rolling up your sleeves to build an MVP, run a competitive analysis, or lead a product launch as you are presenting insights to senior leadership.
You connect decisions to measurable outcomes, clearly communicating how your work drives growth and business performance. You’re customer-obsessed and problem-focused, with a balance of strategic vision and tactical execution. Analytical yet creative, you can interpret complex data, synthesize imperfect information, and turn ambiguity into action.
Above all, you’re collaborative, resourceful, and outcome-driven—an influential voice for what we’re building and why it matters, with no task too small and no challenge too big.
3+ years of relevant experience in product management or product consulting—preferably in B2B technology, with bonus points for experience in insurance, personal lines, or fintech services.
Strong analytical and technical capability, including proficiency with data tools such as SQL, Python, Excel, Tableau, Metabase, or Power BI to support modeling, insights, and data-driven decision-making.
Proven ability to translate technical features into clear business value for both technical and non-technical audiences, including executive leadership.
Experience conducting market and competitive analysis, developing strategic recommendations, and creating enablement materials that support product, technical, and go-to-market teams.
Skilled in both qualitative and quantitative research methods, such as interviews, surveys, and statistical analysis.
Demonstrated success presenting insights and strategic recommendations to senior leaders or C-suite executives.
Strong project management and cross-functional leadership skills, with experience delivering product transformations, managing product lifecycles, and driving digital or operational improvements.
Comfort utilizing AI tools to accelerate product management workflows and improve collaboration with full-stack engineering teams.
Expertise in Agile methodologies and familiarity with customer journey mapping, product lifecycle management, and modern product development practices.
Excellent communication, problem-solving, and storytelling abilities, with the ability to craft compelling presentations and data narratives.
Bachelor’s Degree or equivalent experience required.
