Overview of the Role

Overall, how would you describe your experience at Samsung Electronics?
My experience at Samsung Electronics has been very rewarding, I have been trusted with major responsibilities, such as leading projects from the start of my graduate scheme. It has helped me grow quickly in a fast-paced environment where no day is the same and I am constantly learning each day. The people are a massive strength for Samsung, they are supportive and genuinely care about your future career. Overall, it is a fantastic place to work and I'd thoroughly recommend it to any new graduate looking to develop a strong skill set and build a successful career.
What are the main responsibilities of the role and which elements of the role do you enjoy the most?
As a product manager on the Samsung Wallet, I am responsible for not only improving the product through new features and enhancements but also tracking the performance and setting the strategic direction for all 11 European markets that are live with Samsung Wallet. I enjoy working with multiple stakeholders across teams and markets, and its rewarding to see the tangible benefits of my work such as increased user engagement.
