About Thrive
Thrive is a leading global provider of NextGen managed services, delivering cybersecurity-first, cloud, infrastructure, AI-driven automation, and digital experience solutions to mid-market and enterprise clients. With nearly 30 acquisitions completed and a rapidly scaling global platform, Thrive is building a standardized, AI-enabled services architecture designed for operational leverage, margin expansion, and durable value creation.
We are entering our next phase: platform consolidation, product standardization, AI monetization, and scalable integration discipline.
Role Overview
The EVP of Product is a key member of the executive leadership team, responsible for defining and leading Thrive’s end-to-end product and platform strategy across Cybersecurity, Cloud, Digital Experience, Infrastructure, and AI-powered services. This leader will own an end-to-end product lifecycle, from vision and strategy to roadmap, delivery, commercialization and in-life optimization, across our managed services and technology offerings.
This executive will transform a multi-acquisition services portfolio into a standardized, repeatable, high-margin platform — driving clarity in packaging, pricing, roadmap prioritization, vendor strategy, automation, and ServiceNow enablement.
This is a highly strategic and operationally rigorous role. The EVP must bring structure, discipline, and platform thinking to a complex and evolving environment.
