Role Snapshot
Lead the Staffing, Attendance & Capacity product domain at Famly as a mini-CEO, owning the end-to-end vision, customer outcomes, and delivery of solutions that help nursery and school managers streamline staffing administration. Manage a cross-functional team of engineers, a designer, and a product manager to solve complex workforce management and compliance challenges across multiple regulated markets.
Job Description
Every day, nursery and school managers lose hours to rotas, ratios, staff absence, and the time tracking admin that follows — time they'd rather spend with their staff and the children in their care. Staffing is a nursery's single biggest cost line, and one of the most tightly regulated parts of running one — ratios, qualifications, overtime and time-off rules all vary market by market. Get it right, and you unlock better economics, more predictable site capacity, and more time for staff to focus on the children in their care. That's the opportunity Famly's Staffing, Attendance & Capacity experience exists to seize — and we're looking for a Head of Product to lead it.
About Famly
We're on a mission to stop admin stealing the joy of working with young children. We do that with our platform, the world's first proactive assistant for educators and staff that handles admin for them so they can get back to what they love. And we do it with our content (like The Tiny Chair Podcast), reminding educators of the joy and meaning that got them into working with children in the first place.
About the role
This is an ‘own it end-to-end’ role. You’ll be accountable for the success of the Staffing, Attendance & Capacity domain — everything from vision and customer outcomes to delivery and team performance. Think of yourself as the mini-CEO of this part of Famly’s product: you bring together product, design and engineering to solve real problems for the people who run nurseries, and to deliver measurable impact for the business.
It’s a domain with genuine complexity. Staff schedules, ratios, time tracking, absence management and payroll sit at the intersection of HR, workforce management and local regulation — and every market Famly operates in has its own rules and quirks. You’ll need to get comfortable making good, streamlined decisions in that complexity, fast.
You won’t do this alone. You’ll lead a team of builders/engineers, a product designer and a product manager, and your job is to multiply their impact — setting direction and holding accountability for outcomes, while giving your team a genuine mandate to solve problems within that direction.
