Product and Strategy Innovation Lead

Product & Strategy Innovation Lead

About PSYKHE

PSYKHE is a strategic design consultancy helping APAC's most ambitious organisations

innovate and thrive in an AI-driven world. We combine the rigour of elite strategy work with

the creativity and empathy of human-centred design.

We are building an AI-native consultancy with three key capabilities: Strategy & Innovation,

Product Management (Combined team), and Product Design. Our model is deliberately integrated—strategy informs what products to build, product management ensures we build the right things, and design ensures we build them right.

We work with leading organisations across banking, healthcare, hospitality, public sector, and

technology—including DBS, Prudential, UOB, OCBC, GlaxoSmithKline, Ministry of Health,

Frasers Hospitality to name a few.

We're an equal opportunity employer, with flexible working arrangements.

The Role

This is a unique leadership role that spans two of PSYKHE's core capabilities: Strategy &

Innovation and Product Management. You will lead engagements that connect strategic

insight to product execution, develop consultants across both disciplines, and build integrated

ways of working that are central to our differentiation.

On the strategy side, you will work on business model innovation, market entry, AI strategy,

organisational transformation, and foresight. On the product side, you will shape product

vision, define roadmaps, drive go-to-market strategy, and ensure products deliver genuine

value.

Often, you will do both on the same engagement—taking a client from strategic insight

through to product reality.

This role is ideal for someone who refuses to accept the false divide between strategy and

execution—who believes the best strategies are shaped by product thinking, and the best

products are grounded in strategic clarity.

What you'll do

Lead integrated Engagements

• Own end-to-end delivery of engagements spanning strategy through product

execution

• Structure complex problems—knowing when to apply strategic frameworks vs.

product thinking

• Translate strategic insights into product vision, roadmaps, and prioritisation decisions

• Manage client relationships at senior levels across business and product functions

• Collaborate with Product Design to ensure strategy and product work connects to

user experience

• Navigate the intersection of business stakeholders, product teams, and technical

constraints

Develop Cross Functional Teams

• Lead and coach consultants across Strategy & Innovation and Product Management

• Build T-shaped practitioners who can work across disciplines while developing deep

expertise

• Create stretch opportunities that expose team members to both strategic and product

challenges

• Foster collaboration between strategists and product managers—breaking down silos

• Build an inclusive team culture where diverse perspectives strengthen our work

Collaboration & Communication

• Shape methodologies that connect strategic insight to product execution

• Develop intellectual capital—futures thinking, frameworks for strategy-to-product

translation, product-led growth, AI product strategy

• Contribute to business development—identifying opportunities that leverage our

integrated model

• Establish rituals that build capability across both practices

• Represent PSYKHE's integrated approach through thought leadership and market

presence

What we are looking for

• 10 years of combined experience across strategy consulting and product management

• Background that includes strategy consulting (MBB, Big 4, boutique) and product management with strategic depth

• Track record of leading complex engagements or products from concept through

delivery

• Experience developing and coaching team members across disciplines

• Demonstrated expertise in one or more areas: business model innovation, product

strategy, AI/digital products, go-to-market, or platform strategy

• Deep understanding of APAC markets and business contexts
