Manager, Mobile Devices

Business Unit: Handset Planning
Job Level: Manager
Location: Walnut Creek, CA
Employment Type: Full Time Regular
Travel Required: 20-30%

Handsets are the core vehicle to deliver VMU's branded experience to the customer, and in turn, the accessories are a key driver that augments the handsets. In other words—no handsets/accessories, means no Virgin Mobile! This position sits on the front lines of projecting the VMU brand both with our supplier partners and our customers as VMU strives to deliver a compelling experience on the mobile device front. A ton of external relationship management with both handset and accessory vendors is at the heart of the job. You will also have the ability to create special edition handsets and accessories for specific marketing programs.

The Mobile Devices Manager will team to define the handset roadmap, work with handset OEM's, and communicate market trends within the organization. You are responsible for the overall direction of the VMU accessory program, including complete ownership of the indirect program at retail and responsibility for working with the sales and marketing teams in ensuring the direct channel is equipped with all the right accessories in support of the handset lineup.

The three areas break down like this:

Handset Roadmaps
• Gathering, compiling data from vendors and then communicating to VMU cross-functional groups to develop the handset roadmap
• Communicate information with appropriate key internal and external constituents
• Based on cost, handset margin, subsidy, make recommendations to handset team and senior management on appropriate handset selections to help fill slots in the roadmap
• Coordinate ongoing supplier meetings, including vendor trade shows
• Manage all strategic supplier relations
• Manage special projects around creating special edition handsets
• Ensure that vendor responses are aligned with VMU Handset Requirements

Contract Management and Compliance

• Develop and present handset and accessory recommendations to senior leadership
• Track third party VMU licensing fees
• Launch accessories for direct channel launch
• Ensure accessories are available at retail for new product launches

Key in this position is exceptional interpersonal skills, as the success of this position is largely determined by the ability to work closely with others and gain their buy-in with often difficult requests. Additionally, you must be able to raise flags and clearly articlutate any gaps.

Come with 5+ years of experience in the wireless industry with an understanding of products and channel distribution with special emphasis on handsets and accessories. You’ll need a broad understanding of handset technologies, feature-set trade-offs, and be able to synthesize roadmap information for internal/external entities. You will have the ability to wear a ‘buyers’ hat, and be attentive to the details. You should also have project management experience. A technical background can only help here as well!

You must be highly energized, and enjoy engaging others. Independent thinkers who can reach his/her own conclusions in a quick and reasoned manner is really what’s needed here. You should be able to deftly drive decision making to ensure that products and projects move forward in a simple yet business savvy way.
