The Product Manager is responsible for ensuring the long-term health of the portfolio which ultimately puts the business in a position to deliver consistent top-line growth while hitting profitability targets. The value the Product Manager brings to the role is directly related to how informed and aligned the team around the product manager is. In other words, success in this role is directly correlated with the leader's ability to influence. The tools available to the Weatherization Product Manager include but are not limited to:

• Enabling top line growth. By partnering with pricing, marketing, and supply chain organizations, the Product Manager can drive growth and prevent market share erosion. The Product Manager keeps levers like lead time management, pricing, and product changes front and center for an organization that is focused on driving growth.
• Owning product roadmaps. Work with cross functional partners to define and advance products to win in the long run. Roadmaps provide alignment around opportunities and drive prioritization to put business in the best position to hit decarbonization, margin enhancement, and value creation goals.
• Representing Shelter interests in separate, Tyvek Organization. The Tyvek assets (Luxemburg and Richmond, Virginia) are run by a separate, Tyvek and Typar LOB and the Shelter business consumes a large portion of the volume produced by the assets and thus partnership is critical to the success of DuPont overall. The Shelter Global Product Manager serves as the main conduit with the Tyvek organization and is responsible for driving collaboration in support of accurate asset planning, critical cost saving initiatives, and qualifications.
• Influencing key raw material and contract manufacturing strategies. Working in close collaboration with R&D, quality, and supply chain, the Product Manager must work to understand short and long-term risks to the product portfolio and support execution with the procurement team. The Product Manager is responsible for understanding the key drivers of profitability in the business and identifying opportunities to drive improvement.
• Driving success of new product development process. In all stages of the development cycle and post-launch, the Product Manager plays a key role in aligning internal functions for each stage gate review and is ultimately responsible for ensuring new products move the portfolio forward in a strategically-aligned way.
• Maintaining an informed view of the competitive landscape. Insights into competition come in through every function. It is the Product Manager's role to drive discipline in understanding how our competitors are approaching the market, how industry capacity is forecasted to change over the next few years. Armed with visibility into current and future gaps in the product portfolio, the Product Manager drives the organization to improve our competitive position.
• Stepping in to coordinating large-scope projects or challenging supply situations when cross-functional approaches are critical to success.
