Product Management.

You know the difference.

It’s a lot more than just management, it’s about craft and design and building.
It’s not just about building a Product, it’s about building a business.

Quality.

When you hear this word, your heart skips a beat because you identify with others in pursuit of greatness. The chase never stops, the chase never ends, it is who you are: a driver for doing things right because they are the right things to do (even when nobody is looking). You improve constantly (through learning and practice), just how you help other colleagues and businesses improve.

Quality means caring, quality means respect for yourself and for your profession.

In broad strokes these types of people strive at Lateral, people who care. If you are reliable, smart, thoughtful, kind, supportive human being, you might just have found a home here.

Resonate with that? Friendly and always seeing the glass half full? Let's talk.

Send us examples of projects and artifacts of your work (projects portfolio, redacted documents eg presentations etc) and / or a bio, materials of your own craft. We care more about your work and attitude than the name of the university you attended, or the brands associated with your resume.
