Sr. Digital Asset & Product Information Manager
Hybrid - Gurnee IL
The Role:PurposeBuilt Brands is building a modern content and product-data backbone - Digital Asset Management (DAM), Product Information Management (PIM), and retail/e-commerce syndication. The Sr. Digital Asset & Product Information Manager will own that program end to end: selecting and implementing the platforms, integrating them with existing systems, and leading the organizational change required to operate in a more automated, governed, single-source-of-truth model.
The role launches with the DAM, then sequences into PIM and syndication. It is equal parts technical program leadership and change leadership; you will decide how the company will create, manage, govern, and distribute brand and product content going forward.
What You Will Do:Platform Implementation (Phased)- Lead end-to-end implementation, starting with the DAM: requirements, vendor selection, configuration, taxonomy and metadata model, rights/usage management, asset migration, and go-live.
- PIM (tool and timing TBD): evaluate, select, and sequence a PIM - product data model, attribute governance, enrichment workflows, and channel readiness.
- Syndication (tool and timing TBD): evaluate and stand up syndication to retail and e-commerce endpoints, automating distribution, and reducing manual content submission.
- Own the RFP, statements of work, and management of implementation partners and system integrators.
Integration & Architecture- Define and deliver integrations across ERP, e-commerce, web/CMS, creative tools, and analytics.
- Establish the single-source-of-truth architecture and data flow for assets and product information.
- Partner with IT and Security on access, SSO, data governance, and platform administration.
Change Management & Adoption- Own the change strategy: stakeholder mapping, communications, training, and adoption tracking.
- Redesign content and product-data workflows; eliminate manual, duplicative, and off-system processes.
- Build and lead a cross-functional governance model across brand, marketing, sales, e-commerce, supply chain, and IT.
- Drive measurable adoption across all brands and functions.
Program & Project Management- Run the program: roadmap, milestones, budget, resourcing, risks, and dependencies.
- Manage scope, timeline, and quality across internal teams and external partners.
- Report status, decisions, and risks directly to Digital Transformation leadership.
Operating Model & Decision Leadership- Make and own the critical decisions on how PBB creates, manages, governs, and distributes content and product data.
- Define roles, accountabilities (RACI), and standards for the new operating model.
- Establish and enforce taxonomy, metadata, and data-quality standards.
- Audit assets, manage permissions, troubleshoot, and train users.
- Regular reviews & roadmap evolution.
People & Vendor Leadership- Lead a direct and matrixed team plus external implementation partners.
- Manage vendor relationships, contracts, and performance against SLAs and budget.

What You Will Bring:- 5+ years in digital content operations, martech/product-data systems, or digital transformation, including hands-on leadership of DAM and/or PIM implementations.
- End-to-end ownership of at least one enterprise DAM or PIM implementation - selection through adoption.
- Strong systems-integration fluency (ERP, e-commerce, CMS, APIs); able to lead technical decisions without being the developer.
- Proven change-management and program-management track record at enterprise scale.
- Experience with content and product data in a multi-brand consumer products and omnichannel retail environment.
- Excellent executive communication; comfortable owning decisions and driving cross-functional alignment.
Preferred- CPG / consumer products background; familiarity with retailer and marketplace syndication requirements (e.g., GDSN, retailer portals, Amazon).
- Taxonomy/metadata design and data governance experience.
