Job Description
The Product Manager Special Assignment Commercialization will be responsible for identifying and delivering bold, high-impact, low-cost initiatives that dramatically increase awareness, adoption, and sales momentum for TDs Clover merchant offering.
This role is designed to augment an established commercialization team with breakout thinking and practical execution. The mandate: generate measurable results that are creative, scalable, and unforgettable.
You will:
Identify unconventional but executable commercialization opportunities that accelerate growth
Develop initiatives that create viral momentum, word-of-mouth advocacy, or meaningful differentiation in-market
Create tools, campaigns, or experiences that make it dramatically easier for Sales to win
Translate bold ideas into business cases with measurable KPIs and ROI
Partner closely with Marketing, Sales, Product, and executive stakeholders to align, secure approvals, and execute
Work within TD governance and funding frameworks while creatively maximizing impact
Track, measure, and report results learning fast and iterating intelligently
This is not a role focused on incremental optimization. It is a role focused on step-change outcomes.
Who You Are
You are creative and disciplined.
You are visionary and practical.
You dont just brainstorm ideas. You build movements.
You may come from Marketing, product strategy, brand strategy, entrepreneurship, innovation, or growth roles. Perhaps youve launched something that caught fire. Perhaps youve built a side venture that gained traction. Perhaps youve reimagined a tired proposition and turned it into something people talked about.
You understand that AI can generate ideas. What differentiates you is your ability to:
Spot the one idea that matters
Shape it into something executable
Mobilize stakeholders
Deliver measurable commercial results
You are comfortable challenging conventional thinking respectfully and collaboratively. You bring energy. You inspire teams. You help people see whats possible.
You understand how companies like Starbucks reframed the caf as a third place, or how Febreze repositioned from early failure to breakthrough success not because they created more ads, but because they shifted the narrative.
You are here to help shift ours.
What You Bring
5+ years of experience in Product Management, Marketing, Growth, Innovation, or Commercialization
Demonstrated ability to deliver measurable commercial impact
Strong storytelling and executive communication skills
Comfort navigating governance, approvals, and cross-functional alignment in a large organization
Bias toward action and experimentation
Analytical mindset with the ability to define and track meaningful success metrics
A portfolio, examples, or stories that demonstrate breakthrough thinking turned into real-world results
Why This Role Matters
The Canadian payments landscape is competitive and evolving rapidly. Our partnership with Clover represents a significant opportunity to expand our merchant offering and redefine how small and mid-sized businesses experience payments.
This one-year assignment is an opportunity to:
Influence a national product commercialization strategy
Deliver outsized impact in a defined timeframe
Build executive visibility
Leave a measurable legacy
If you are energized by the idea of building something that people talk about inside and outside the Bank this may be your assignment.
