Product Manager

Fortune Brands Innovations, Inc. is an industry-leading innovation company focused on creating smarter, safer, and more beautiful homes and improving lives. Our driving purpose is that we elevate every life by transforming spaces into havens. We believe our work and our brands can have incredibly positive impacts for not just our business and shareholders, but for people and the planet, too. When you join Fortune Brands, you become part of a high-performing team who are empowered to think big, learn fast, and make bold decisions. We support an inclusive and diverse culture where everyone is encouraged and empowered to be their authentic selves, and where our differences and unique perspectives are a key strength.

As a Product Manager B2C for our Security Business Unit, you will contribute to the long-term success of your assigned product lines by supporting product development, commercialization, and lifecycle management efforts. Working closely with cross-functional partners, you'll help bring products to market that align with customer needs, manufacturing capabilities, and business goals.

You must have 3+ years of product management experience in hard goods or CPG, coupled with strong marketing expertise working with large big box retailers. You should have a proven track record of supporting the development and successful launch of new products using a stage-gate process.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys translating insights into action, collaborating across teams, and managing the details that keep projects moving forward. You'll support the full product lifecycle—from early development through launch, performance tracking, and end-of-life planning—while also contributing to broader team initiatives and process improvements.

Your ability to build strong relationships, think analytically, and communicate clearly will help ensure product plans are executed with quality and impact.

At FBIN, we value individuals who demonstrate the ability to think fast by using data and insights to guide thoughtful, timely decisions; work it together by building trusted relationships across teams and functions; and make the hard call by navigating challenges with care, collaboration, and sound judgment.

Position Location: This position is eligible for a hybrid schedule based out of our Deerfield, IL office. Effective mid-2025, Fortune Brands will transition to a new world-class campus in Deerfield, bringing together associates from across our U.S. offices, brands, and functions. The campus will offer vibrant workspaces for collaboration, along with amenities for dining, onsite daycare, fitness, and recreation.
