For you, product development goes far beyond form and function. Your vision is broader: it connects the dots between user experience, brand evolution, and international impact. Our client, based in the greater Bern area, is an internationally established design classic with modular DNA and an iconic visual language. We are seeking an inspiring and forward-thinking leader – someone who brings strategic focus, technical depth, and a refined understanding of international design culture to shape and advance global product development. Product Development Director In this key role, you will be responsible for the global product development of a design brand that shapes modern working and living environments worldwide through its modular system that stands for aesthetics, precision, and cultural identity. You will lead an interdisciplinary team across Product Management and Engineering, while also overseeing cross-functional areas such as intellectual property (IP rights) and sustainability. Together with your team, you will shape forward-thinking solutions that unite innovation, technical excellence, and market relevance. In doing so, you will lead and curate: identifying emerging trends, translating ideas into industrial reality, and shaping a product world that sets new standards. You have several years of international management experience in the development of sophisticated products – whether in industrial design, interior systems, automotive interiors or premium and innovative consumer products. You hold a university degree (in design, engineering, architecture, technology or a related field) and have a proven track record of managing complex development processes. You think strategically, act creatively and lead with inspiration. You communicate comfortably at C-level, navigate cultural contexts with ease, and are fluent in both German and English. A willingness to travel internationally is required. What awaits you: a company with international appeal, a deep-rooted design culture and a brand with strong identity and long-term vision. An environment where design, architecture, and technology converge in a modular system – and where your ideas will take shape and travel the world. Ready to help shape what’s next for a true design icon? We look forward to your application.
