The Lead Product Manager – Inside Sales Relationship Journey is accountable for the product vision, strategy, roadmap and delivered outcomes of the relationship layer of the Inside Sales experience. This is a senior product leadership. We are hiring for future scope as much as for the work that exists today.

The Lead PM owns two connected product areas. First, the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Contact Center platform for Inside Sales, covering voice, digital messaging, embedded Copilot, agentic workflows and the real-time operations layer that supports our contact center associates. Second, the relationship management capabilities of Dynamics 365 that support how Inside Sales associates manage accounts, contacts, opportunities, quotes and the ongoing customer conversation. Together, these two areas make up the Relationship Journey.

The Lead PM sets the direction of these product areas, leads the discovery-to-delivery cycle with a cross-functional squad, coaches product owners and adjacent PMs, and represents Sonepar to Microsoft on Contact Center and Dynamics 365 roadmap alignment. Success is measured in business outcomes — associate productivity, customer retention, share of wallet in inside-sales-served accounts, and the incremental revenue we unlock through better relationship execution.
