Product Designer - Sports
JLB, Baton Rouge, LA, United States
Are you a detail-driven Product Designer who loves taking ideas from concept to shelf? Do you thrive in fast-paced, entrepreneurial environments where you can genuinely own the process?
We’re supporting a high-growth consumer products group operating across multiple sporting-goods categories, and they’re looking for a Product Manager who can drive end-to-end product development and help shape the future of their portfolio.
What You’ll Do
Manage the full product development lifecycle: sourcing, sampling, lab/field testing, certification, packaging, production support, and troubleshooting. Keep all projects on time, on budget, and fully documented using internal processes. Build product-market landscapes and supply‑chain flowcharts in partnership with the Product Development Team. Strengthen existing manufacturer relationships and open new ones domestic and international. Work cross‑functionally with sales, marketing, and operations to support commercial launches and ongoing initiatives. Report directly to the COO and operate across multiple brands within the group. What You Bring
Strong professionalism, sound judgment, and exceptional communication skills. A self‑starter mindset with the ability to thrive in a fast‑moving, entrepreneurial environment. Proven ability to manage deadlines, projects, and suppliers with precision. Comfort traveling regularly (sometimes on short notice) both domestically and internationally. Why This Role?
You’ll join a growing organization with a wide portfolio of products, meaning your work directly impacts brand success across multiple sports categories. This is a role with ownership, visibility, and the chance to build real influence in a company scaling fast. If you’re excited about shaping high-quality sporting goods from concept through final approval, we’d love to hear from you.
