Draftable is building the next generation of document drafting tools for lawyers. We're part of Affinda Group, a founder-led global AI company based in Melbourne, Australia. Since launching our first legal product in 2023, over 1,300 law firms and legal teams globally have adopted our product, including leading firms like Allens, Mallesons and DLA Piper. We're growing ARR at well over 100% year-on-year, with very high win rates against incumbents and negligible churn. Our flagship document comparison product already exceeds incumbent tools, and it's just the foundation for a broader product suite we're actively building.
Our ambition is to become the leading provider of document drafting solutions for lawyers, and the most loved software in a lawyer's toolkit.
What makes this role compelling
- Own the product strategy: Driving decisions across our portfolio is the heart of this role.
- Build the product operation: Lead and coach our product managers, mentor the team on product craft, and shape the roles and hires that come next as the portfolio expands.
- Own a multi-product portfolio: Balance investment between our flagship comparison product and the new categories we're launching.
- Rearchitect how product management works: You'll own the redesign of our product processes so humans working alongside AI agents define what we build.
- Hands on: Continue to adapt to a fast-changing AI landscape by remaining hands on with AI while maintaining a leadership position.
- A warm culture with trust and autonomy: Join a team with high trust and no politics.
- A real seat at the table: You'll be part of the Draftable leadership team, reporting directly to the General Manager.
Why now
Legal technology is going through a generational shift. Law firms are moving away from aging, bundled platforms in favour of modern, best-of-breed alternatives, and Draftable is on the right side of that shift. At the same time, AI is fundamentally changing how product teams work. For a product leader, this is a rare moment: you can ship faster than ever before, and the decisions you make carry more weight than they have in years.
It's also a pivotal time for Draftable itself. We've proven the model with our flagship product and established our position; now we're moving deliberately into multi-product territory. Stepping into this role means shaping those decisions from the outset rather than inheriting a settled roadmap.
The role
We're looking for a Head of Product to lead our product function through its next stage: growing the team, evolving the product strategy, expanding the portfolio, and rearchitecting how we do product management as AI changes what's possible.
Each of our products has a named product owner who is accountable for its commercial success. You'll develop those owners and hold them accountable, set commercial targets with them, and share in the outcomes.
You will:
- Own the product portfolio: Balance investment between maturing our flagship comparison product and launching new categories.
- Build out and lead the product team: Coach and develop our product managers.
- Make each product owner successful: Set commercial targets together, review adoption, retention and revenue trajectories.
- Incubate new product concepts: Run early discovery and validation yourself.
- Own our discovery, definition, and launch standards across products.
- Rearchitect our product processes to be AI-native.
- Partner with Engineering on technical feasibility, architecture decisions, and delivery planning.
- Partner with Sales and Marketing on go-to-market strategy, product positioning, and customer feedback loops.
- Analyse adoption, retention and usage data across the portfolio to surface opportunities.
What you'll bring
- 10+ years in product management, most of it in B2B SaaS.
- Experience taking a new product from zero to launch and first customers.
- A commercial approach to product: You run products against adoption, retention and revenue targets.
- Strong product judgment, including the ability to discern between good and bad ideas.
- Cross-functional leadership: A proven ability to align engineering, sales, marketing, and support behind a roadmap.
- Excellent written communication across product requirements, strategy documentation and go-to-market enablement.
- A data-driven approach to decision-making.
- Active use of AI tools in your product work.
Nice to have:
- Experience in legal technology or selling to law firms and professional services organisations.
- Experience in challenger brands taking market share from larger incumbents.
Location & travel
Melbourne-based hybrid role with office in Cremorne. Flexible working arrangements with regular in-person collaboration and periodic travel for customer meetings, conferences, and events.
Compensation
AUD $240,000 (including super) and remunerate based on merit.
We're committed to fostering an inclusive workplace and welcome applications from all qualified individuals.
