Client success stories

Nigel Wright Group has a proven track record of delivering high-quality product management talent across Germany and the wider DACH region. From multinational conglomerates to premium lifestyle brands and emerging digital innovators, our team has supported a diverse range of businesses in identifying and appointing product specialists who are instrumental in shaping portfolios, driving innovation, and connecting commercial strategies with consumer needs.

Senior Product Leadership Across Europe

We’ve been entrusted with several senior-level product leadership roles by some of the most recognisable brands operating in the DACH region.

One notable example is our appointment of the Head of Product for Pricing & Collection Management at Britax Römer, a leading player in child safety solutions. This pan-European role required a leader capable of integrating pricing strategy, portfolio management, and cross-market alignment across a complex product mix.

Similarly, for premium sportswear manufacturer Falke, we placed a Head of Product Management for Apparel, where the challenge was to manage seasonal collections and long-term innovation within the competitive lifestyle and fashion sector.

Meanwhile, Haba, a respected name in educational toys and books, relied on us to recruit a Head of Product Development for Design Goods, Creativity & Books, highlighting our ability to place leaders who balance creativity, strategy, and team coordination.

We also delivered a Group Product Manager to Valmont, demonstrating our international reach and our experience placing product experts within the premium personal care sector.

Mid-Level and Specialist Product Roles

At the core of product development and lifecycle management, mid-level product managers are critical to brand success. Nigel Wright has consistently sourced talent for these pivotal roles.

For Gardena, a leader in home and garden tools, we placed both a Senior Product Manager and a Product Manager. These hires supported core portfolio enhancements and ensured alignment between R&D and commercial performance.

In the FMCG sector, we worked with Eggers & Franke to place a Group Product Manager, reinforcing their portfolio leadership in wine and spirits.

In the same sector, we recruited two Product Managers for MBG International Premium Brands, including one focused on the effect energy drink brand—demonstrating our ability to support fast-paced, trend-driven consumer environments.

Schwarze und Schlichte, another established name in spirits, partnered with us to find a Senior Product Manager, ensuring their innovation pipeline remained relevant to shifting consumer preferences.

We also supported Kettler with the appointment of a Junior Product Manager, an example of our end-to-end capability across product career stages—from entry-level to executive.

Digital Product Ownership and Technology-Focused Roles

Our experience is not limited to physical goods. We’ve placed product managers and owners in digital, SaaS, and technical environments too.

At Acardo Group, we recruited a Digital Product Owner, reflecting the increasing need for product expertise in digitally native platforms and customer-facing applications.

We also supported CoreLogic, a data and software company serving the insurance sector, by appointing a Technical Product Manager. This hire required technical fluency, agile mindset, and an ability to drive roadmap decisions in a highly regulated sector.

For Matratzen Concord, a company investing in digital transformation, we placed a Product Owner focused on customer journey optimisation and online retail experiences.

Our experience with Bayer involved placing an Interim ServiceNow Product Specialist, a role crucial for delivering internal IT product enhancements and improving employee experience via streamlined service delivery.

Hybrid and Innovation-Oriented Product Functions

The product function is evolving to include digital integration and cross-functional leadership. Stokke, known for its premium children’s products, turned to us for multiple innovation and hybrid roles, including:

This portfolio of placements illustrates our growing role in supporting businesses that operate at the intersection of physical and digital product innovation.
