Product manager job in Saint Paul, MN
Product Development Manager, Consumer Goods
St. Paul, MN (On-site)
Who We Are
We're Wrap-It Storage - a fast-growing, family-owned company on a mission to help people Get Untangled! And, well, just plain organized. We're a small but mighty team where ideas move fast - from sketch to store shelves (and online) - without corporate clutter slowing things down.
We create ridiculously useful products that keep cords, hoses, ropes, and everyday clutter under control. Our current solutions are top-notch, but we're always working to make these solutions even top-notchy-er.
Position Overview
We're looking for a proactive, design-minded Product Development / Project Manager who isn't just comfortable with ambiguity - they
thrive
on it. In this role, you will create structure, not wait for it. You'll define how projects run and build timelines from scratch that keep our growing product pipeline aligned and moving quickly.
You'll be the one steering new product development from early concept through launch - and holding internal and external partners accountable every step of the way. Because we work with overseas suppliers, this role requires occasional evening communication to maintain speed and progress across time zones.
If you're a self-starter who takes initiative, brings clarity to complexity, and has an eye for clean, cohesive product design - we want you leading the charge!
What You'll Do
Build new product development processes and timelines - you own the system
Drive accountability and keep cross-functional teams aligned to deadlines
Collaborate with marketing, sales, and operations to define project timelines and requirements
Ensure product aesthetics, packaging, and overall execution are consistent with the Wrap-It brand
Work proactively with overseas partners to maintain momentum, solve problems, and accelerate development
Negotiate with suppliers to achieve competitive pricing while ensuring product quality
Identify risks early and implement solutions before they cause delays
Special projects as required (which is a fancy way of saying “other stuff we can't think of right now”).
What You Bring
3-5+ years experience in project management/product development (consumer goods preferred)
Demonstrated ability to build and lead project structure - not just follow it
· Confidence in holding others accountable and driving results
· Strong eye for design and brand cohesion
Self-starter attitude: you see what needs to happen and make it happen
Superior organizational skills
Exceptional communication - direct, clear, timely, and solution-focused
Comfortable with occasional evening work to stay in sync with overseas partners
Skilled in Microsoft Office (primarily Excel & PowerPoint)
Why You'll Love Working Here
You'll shape how new products are built and launched - real ownership
Your ideas will be implemented quickly and visible everywhere our products sell
A growth stage company with huge runway - your impact will grow with us
A team culture built on trust, humor, and problem-solving (we take work seriously, not ourselves 😄)
In Short: You'll help launch the next generation of Wrap-It Storage products and make a big impact on a growing team-without the big company bureaucracy slowing you down.
